"This is a GENIUS book. You guys have to pick this up." - Jenny McCarthy, from "The Jenny McCarthy Show" interview with Rodney Lacroix on June 15, 2017 From the best-selling humorist and comedy author of "Perhaps I've Said Too Much" and "Romantic as Hell." Written in Rodney's trademark comedic style with spot-on timing, "The Vasectomy Diaries" is a hilarious, frank and hysterically wince-inducing account of one man's journey through the procedure. Rodney takes you along with him on his quest to shoot blanks with a fast-paced, brain-storming diary format. Starting with the moment he makes the life-changing decision while experiencing a migraine during a kid's birthday party, all the way through to the final reveal on whether or not the damn thing took, it's a fun and racy ride. Follow his progress in this day-by-day journal as he discusses and describes in full comedic (and graphic) detail such things as: - The decision to empty the pistol chamber - The vasectomy consultation, and why it sucks - What a vasectomy is, wonderfully described using cars, factories and hair dryers - Manscaping for beginners, and the perils of putting a sharp razor on bumpy bits and pieces - The procedure itself, and why it sucks - How frozen peas can replace a dog as man's best friend - Some Not-Safe-for-Work reading on post-vasectomy "chores" Punctuated with some amazing illustrations, "The Vasectomy Diaries" is a feast for the eyes, as well. It's a great read for any man who is thinking of the procedure, any man that has had the procedure or just anyone who wants to laugh at another man's pain. Think of it as "What to Expect when You're Expecting a Procedure to make Women You Sleep with Stop Expecting." Sit down, relax and a get ready to laugh as Rodney Lacroix tells a tale in a way only he can. Trust me, it's not your average diary. You'll laugh your balls off.

"This is a GENIUS book. You guys have to pick this up." - Jenny McCarthy, from "The Jenny McCarthy Show" interview with Rodney Lacroix on June 15, 2017
"So funny, you'll bust a nut laughing!" - Jenna McCarthy, Best-Selling Author

"The Vasectomy Diaries made me double over with laughter & sympathy pains!" - Steve Gelder, Actor/Comedian

"Rodney Lacroix's new book, The Vasectomy Diaries," is a hilarious, laugh-out-loud book about his decision to get a vasectomy. Rodney's witty and unfiltered diary of his thoughts and experiences during this process are comedic perfection, where nothing is off limits. Whether you're a man who can relate or a woman who's always wondered what men really think about getting their wienies whacked, this book is a must read!" - Vikki Claflin, Author, Chin Hairs & Back Fat, Somewhere Between Tweezers, Yoga Pants & a Box of Wine

Do NOT read this book if you don't like laughing so hard it feels like someone is stabbing you in the stomach. Also don't read it while you are at the gym because people will look at you like you have lost your damn mind because you are laughing and making that stupid snorting sound, and for the love of God don't get the audio version and listen to it while you are driving unless you don't really care about your car or anyone else on the road with you (and what kind of person are you if you don't?) Just do us all a favor and stay home and read it.

5.0 out of 5 stars Funny!
Reviewed in the United States on September 19, 2017

The topic has potential for being "boy humor" that I normally don't enjoy, but it is not! I thought both the story itself and style in which it was told was genuinely funny. It takes a great story teller to take a non-funny thing like surgery and turn it into something funny and entertaining. And it was even educational since I have not experienced this myself.

4.0 out of 5 stars This one was good, but had less balls
Reviewed in the United States on March 18, 2017
I couldn't give this book five stars because it lacked gumption. And by gumption, I mean a ball. And by a ball, I mean it's about vasectomy so that's basically cutting off a ball, right? It was a five star book for someone with five balls. But since Rodney is an author with only four balls now, I had to rate it accordingly. The books I've read by R. Lacroix when he had FIVE whole balls were much more...ballsy. This one was good, but had less balls. If you're thinking about having a vasectomy or writing a diary, you should first drink some martinis (or margaritas or mai tais or whathaveyou) and then read this book. Because for people with only four balls, Rodney sure does put into words what should only be put into pants.

5.0 out of 5 stars Vasectomies are funny. Who knew?
Reviewed in the United States on April 1, 2021

Spoiler alert: There’s a lot of talk about male genitals. I mean, a lot. You might read that and assume this is hyperbole, but no. It’s a nonstop Ballsarama.

Anyway, it’s funny and I learned some (mostly balls-related) things I didn’t know. I laughed a lot.

Normally a SciFi fan, this was a trip into uncharted territory - if you read at night next to your partner in crime who
needs his sleep, don't even attempt reading this.... You cannot stifle the belly laughs you will be experiencing. I
LOVED it... I am a Mom to 8 & never really considered children from other peoples viewpoints, hahaha Jude W2AYV

1.0 out of 5 stars This is dangerously misleading
Reviewed in the United States on May 20, 2021
This is so misleading it's scary. Did you know that up to 35% of men who have vasectomies experience chronic, untreatable, pain? How do I know? I am one. It wasn't until after the procedure and I did the research that I found out what awaited me and then experienced. They say you won't see a difference in your orgasm, you won't notice a difference in your ejactulations, you won't have a loss of libido, etc. etc... It's all a lie. You won't find a deviation from the status-quo talking points unless you really dig. But the medical studies are firm and available to anyone willing to look. Vasectomy is straight up mutilation. Run for the hills boys. Do NOT do this. Under no circumstances. Up to 50% of men have pain issues up-to 20 years post procedure. They won't tell you that. It won't matter, you're long gone. They got their money. Not only that, but when you return all that time later, you have no leg (figuratively) to stand on. They'll blame your problems on everything else. Do your research. Dig into the issue. DONT DO THE SNIP! It's simply not worth it.
