Sterilization

[MasterAsh]

It tends to be a negative for people who know the word.

That's likely why it doesn't register as much beyond a word for me; I'm only in my late 20s.

Heh. . .I'd thought about mentioning how generation may affect individual perception of the word.

I choose "other'.  It is a means of controlling one own ability to reproduce.  And in some cases it is a decision that is make for another person.  In the 50's, the mentally ill were forced sterilized.

I never went thru the procedure myself, as all my exes choice not to have any more children.  But I might have been the cause, because of my GID.  But who knows.

I am looking forward to losing those pesky little T factories.

As much as I'd want a kid one day, I don't want it to come from a male organ being on me.
I don't see that word anywhere related to what I am doing at all and was surprised to even see this thread.

Seriously, people need to be happy, not to do commonly accepted social actions..
