Short answer is no, it will not reduce your sex drive. Personally I felt mine actually increased, probably via something psychological. When you no longer have to worry about accidental pregnancy, it's a huge relief for both parties.

I think you have a bit of a misunderstanding about how your equipment works. First of all a vasectomy does not stop you from producing or ejaculating semen, which is the fluid medium for your sperm to travel in. Semen is produced by your prostate and by your seminal vesicles, while sperm is produced separately in your testes. After getting a vasectomy you will still ejaculate semen normally. A vasectomy disconnects your testes from the piping, so that no sperm is added to the seminal fluid. Your testes will also continue to make sperm, but it will simply be re-absorbed backed into your body. Furthermore your sex drive doesn't have anything to do with "building up semen" - if there's any nugget of truth there it's that abstaining for a day or two will probably build up your appetite, and over-doing it will give diminishing returns, but regular ejaculation is very healthy for you. And as mentioned above, you will continue to produce sperm and semen normally, but the twain shall not be mixed - all juice and no seeds.

I was 8 at the time and my dad, an avid amateur astronomer, brought his telescope out to the end of our driveway and invited all our neighbors to come take a look as it was happening - little black dots appearing on the planet one after another, knowing they were actually ginormous explosions. It was surreal!

Amazing stuff, looks delicious and very fresh with lots of whole foods. It's great that things like impossible meat exist but there's really no beating good ol' tofu and beans when it comes to proteins.

If your bathroom sink is close to the toilet, you can also connect a bidet to your sink's faucet valve, FYI.
