To be totally pissed off?

Husband had a vasectomy today.

FIL has mentioned more than once how 'horrible' it is 'I've made him get that done' and called him a 'poor lad^'.

I've literally birthed 4 of his fucking grandchildren and I don't recall him ever saying 'poor Strawbsss'.

Years of the pill, depo injections and now the implant....

Feel totally and utterly pissed off by it^ Confused

Men can be very sensitive about their balls. I remember working in a vets and seeing men wince when you'd even mention castration for their pets, like they would feel it personally.

Stop telling family your business.

Sorry op but I kind of get it because he probably would never have done it had it not been mutually discussed iykwim? If I had an op because I was told the other person had done enough even if that was true, Id be saying I had to do it etc

When have I ever said that was the terms of the operation?

We literally discussed it as a married couple and it was HIS suggestion to have the snip??

It’s not out of the ordinary for a guy to talk to his father about having a procedure, @BlondeMamaToBe.

@Strawbsss I’d just say exactly what you said here, but perhaps start with a moderated tone first. Don’t go in all guns blazing. Is your MiL still alive/around for a bit of solidarity?
