In over 30 years of practice, Dr. Errol Billinkoff rarely saw a man without kids come into his Winnipeg clinic to get a vasectomy. But since the pandemic began, he says it's become an almost daily occurrence.
And he's not alone.
"At first, I thought I was the only one who was noticing this," Billinkoff, who brought a no-scalpel vasectomy procedure to Winnipeg in the early 1990s, told CBC News in a November interview.
"But I am part of an international chat group where doctors who do vasectomies participate and the topic came up, and it's like everybody notices it."
Being born is fine, once you're here you should try to live life to its fullest. But I don't want kids, I would be a horrid father.
How do you signal a desire to be born, practically speaking? Who do you contact to indicate your desire to begin existing?
If you don't want to exist, why not simply surrender your place in line to someone who does?
I would argue that the hardest working sperm fertilizes the egg, so technically it IS the one who wanted it the most.
