Guys: Would you consider getting "fixed" for temporary BC?

Was talking with my g/f last night and we got on the topic of her birth control. Essentially she hates taking it. She hates the gyno visit, she hates that the pills come from horse hormones (she’s very animal rights friendly), she hates the long term effects it has on her, and the immediate effects it can have on her mood. But she accepts it as a necessary evil for the time being as neither of us likes condoms or thinks they’re as safe of an alternative… and the other methods available to us (implants, sponges, what have you) are worse options in her/our opinion.

Well I mentioned that if I were in a very committed relationship (ie engaged or more), I wouldn’t be opposed to the idea of being temporarily fixed so as to eliminate the need for birth control all together. She was very surprised by this, but it didn’t really seem that crazy to me. It’s not incredibly expensive, it’s an outpatient procedure that’s pretty safe, it’s reversible in most cases (and I could just set aside some of the troops ahead of time in case something went wrong on that front). It didn’t seem crazy to me to fix myself so that the girl I was with could avoid using typical BC that she was opposed to for a litany of reasons. In the long run it could even end up being cheaper if you really think about it. The fact that I’m only 26 and have no children didn’t really have any effect on my opinion of this.. as I’m very confident I could still have biological children.

Guys, would you consider this? Have you considered this? What would the circumstances have to be? Ladies, how do you feel about this idea?
