Would You Live Stream Your Vasectomy?

Would you live stream your vasectomy?
Today, November 7, 2014, is World Vasectomy Day and according to the Utah People’s Post, one doctor alone live streamed 28 vasectomy procedures today. The article also reports:

Around 300 surgeons from 30 countries performed approximately 1,500 vasectomies. The event sends a strong message about family planning, parenthood and gender equality, while supporting informed choice.

Personally, I doubt I would have felt comfortable having my vasectomy live streamed, but the decision to have one was probably one of the best decisions I’ve made in my adult life. Did you get snipped on World Vasectomy Day? Would you have chosen to live stream the procedure?
