Do it, vasectomy is reversible if you ever change your mind.

This is terrible advice. Ask any urologist and they will tell you the same. OP, ask YOUR urologist about it.
Vasectomies can, in some circumstances, be reversed. You should not plan on yours being one of them. You should plan on it being permanent and reversible.

Very much this.
Remember, it’s an “ectomy” - they remove a beansprout-sized chunk of your vas deferens. You will be left missing a fairly big piece of the plumbing - it’s not just a simple connect/disconnect thing.
If you do choose to have it done and you’re the curious type, they’ll actually let you watch if you ask.
Also, stock up on ibuprofen!

No. You’re old enough to know what you want and make your own decisions. Besides, it’s more to do with maturity and less to do with age anyway - different people mature at different rates and ages. Do you feel mature enough to make that decision? You know yourself best.

No. How can you know that you are not mature by yourself? You will obviously believe that you are, even if you are not.
22 old for boys is not generally mature. He could be the exception, I guess, but I would not ask on Lemmy for such important life decisions if I would consider myself to be mature anyway.
Try thinking about it in 10 years when you are 32. You will have more life experience by then, will know better what you want to do, and see if you remain with this partner or have changed your mind or hera has changed. Boys at that age obviously don’t think about starting a family, but are just horny. Older guys or especially women might start thinking about settling down a decade from now.
Just wear protection until then.

I personally didn’t want kids until ~30something and would have regretted having done so (and had seriously considered it). Everyone’s different, though 🤷♂️

22 is too young to get a tattoo much less a vasectomy.

Your brain doesn’t stop maturing until you’re 25.

I am against them in general. At your age? To me borders in insanity. Might me the unpopular opinion here but yes, I wouldn’t do it.

Sometimes I feel a bit off when unpopular opinions get heavily downvoted. I mean, can we keep the comments diverse? I might disagree with someone, but I won’t downvote them just so their opinion doesn’t get buried.
