when a man gets a vesectomy, can he still get errections?

my husband does. He had a vasectomy in 1983.
Having a vasectomy only means you can't get a woman pregnant. It doesn't stop erections.

Yes, the vasectomy only decreases the chance of pregnancy. Now, there might be a healing time that you might not be able to become erect. Your doctor will completely explain the surgery before hand if you decide to follow through.

Believe me, no-one would have a vasectomy if it affected erections. Everything works just the same as before - you won't actually see any difference at all. However, you will no longer have sperm in your ejaculate.

Absolutely.

Unless something goes very wrong, there is absolutely no difference in erections, ejaculation, and libido due to a vasectomy.

Yes, I got one 17 years ago and have a very active sex life to this day.

Yes. All it does is prevent sperm from entering the rest of the fluids. Sexual function is not impaired in any way.

Of course. Otherwise no one would do it! ;)
My friend's husband had one, and they still have sex everyday. There is no effect on erections or on the sex drive.

the point of a vasectomy is to avoid pregnancy not the sex that causes pregnancy...

Everything is the same except no sperm.
