Dad of 37 calls for free vasectomies
2004-04-09
An Argentinian father of 37 is campaigning for free vasectomies. Cleto Ruiz Diaz, who lives with three partners and all 37 children in a two-bedroom apartment, said he doesn’t want any more children.
They’re stacked to the ceiling as it is
Seems like it'd be cost effective for him to pay for his own. Either that, or put the thing away and forget about it.
He is calling on the local government in the province of Corrientes to allow public hospitals to perform free vasectomies. Mr Diaz told Las Ultimas Noticias: "It is not only the women’s responsibility, men can help too and I don’t want to keep on having children."
Maybe Europe should import him to try and halt the falling birth rate, that is expected to lead to a population collapse there soon.
Local MP Gustavo Alvarez is supporting his call for a new law to make free vasectomies available in the province.

Man, that place must look like the Catholic house in "Monty Python's Guide to Life". I just keep imagining that scene where the mother just drops a kid on the floor, and asks one of the other kids to pick it up for her, cause she's too tired to pick it up herself.

#7  Vow of celibacy, anyone? It's cheaper than surgery.

Failing that, ever heard of Black & decker?

#5  Yes, fixcats.com contains the gem 'neutering tomcats prevents testiticular cancer'. And decapitation prevents headaches. I think I liked the commando chicks better.

#2  Somebody needs to tackle that guy and give him a "free vasectomy" immediately. He's a walking population explosion. Shouldn't the village idiot have projected that he might run into an industrial size dirty diaper problem between the time he invited companion number 2 and companion number 3 to shack on up in the old economy?

Sounds like a child abuse case to me.
