Snip!

It's her body. If she refuses to have sex with me, thats her choice, no... it's her right. Married or not, I can't make her have sex with me. Plus, it really is best for us as Husband and Wife.

No one is disputing forcing someone for sex, we are commenting on how utterly distasteful it is to use sex as a weapon to get something.

Its like if you were the sole breadwinner, opening a new account solely in your name and telling her if she wants any money, she better get a hysterectomy. Same level of disastefulness.

You're not a catholic and neither is your wife, stop claiming you are. It appears all you want is sex and she wants to manipulate you into doing invasive surgeries. What a couple

There's also more practical considerations why it's now viewed better for the male to get the snip snip instead of the female:

Cost (in Australia at least)
- Vasectomy: $350
- Hysterectomy : $25,000

Time
- Male: an hour
- Female: a week in recovery

Risk
- Male: none
- Female: risks of infection and internal bleeding

I won't allow that to happen to my wife, so I'll sign up instead when the time comes.

I think "tubal ligation" is more what you're looking for.

I have never claimed to be a Catholic. I'm... Christian... sort of... and non-denominational and non-practicing at that.

The good news about all this is my wife is a good guilty catholic so I can expect lots of good things later

Tell her to stop pretending

sometimes youve got to do what youve got to do. it would be nice if there was another solution but sadly vasectomy seems inevitable after having kids

I'm glad this solution works for you but personally I could never, ever, ever, ever get one.
