there is no concern about STDs, so after menopause there is no need for condoms.
If a couple decides they are done with babies, a vasectomy will eliminate condoms and dealing with birth control methods before menopause.
I didn't want to miss out on the "benefits" of her sexual peak years. Eliminating the worry of getting pregnant may have had something
to do with it. Worry-free sex for 20 years before menopause made that decision a no brainer.
