I would be extremely angry and my parents if they would have had me cut. Many of my friends complain about a loss of sensitivity and painful erections.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06150627098714564915noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24756113.post-41018744473309775372007-07-04T20:25:00.000-05:002007-07-04T20:25:00.000-05:00This comment has been removed by the author.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06150627098714564915noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24756113.post-49029892465120669932007-06-27T09:01:00.000-05:002007-06-27T09:01:00.000-05:00Every mammal on earth evolved a forskin before the...Every mammal on earth evolved a forskin before there was surgery or even soap. <BR/><BR/>No medical association on earth recommends infant circumcision. <BR/><BR/>Easy.

We decided to not circumcise our son. We haven't regreted it yet, but he is only 11 months old.<BR/><BR/>Congrats on your upcoming birth! <BR/><BR/>I'm excited to see pictures!Amyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10012600638180147495noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24756113.post-56092790121360653202007-06-26T14:18:00.000-05:002007-06-26T14:18:00.000-05:00Studies and more and more doctors are saying that ...Studies and more and more doctors are saying that circumcision is not medically necessary and it not needed for hygiene. Why would God create babies with a need to be fixed? So why put a new baby through a painful procedure on his most sensitive parts? People in this country are all up in arms about female circumcision, why aren't we up in arms about male circumcision? They aren't that different, and they are both largely done for cultural reasons. The argument that bothers me the most is that people do it, just because "that's what people do." And it cracks me up when people say, well, we want the baby to look like his father. What newborn's genitals look like his father's genitals? That would be SCARY! That is my two cents, I obviously have some strong opinions.Sweetpeahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08907018953738729583noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24756113.post-89526200177835222372007-06-26T10:03:00.000-05:002007-06-26T10:03:00.000-05:00we also did not circumsize our son. i cannot begin...we also did not circumsize our son. <BR/>i cannot begin you are this close! so excited for you!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24756113.post-74470971972992341712007-06-26T09:55:00.000-05:002007-06-26T09:55:00.000-05:00I have to agree with Eric.

He basically said it would be wrong to have two boys, one with a circumcision and one without. So it was a pretty easy decision with our second son. It's going to be bad enough when they start playing show in tell together. Ugh...why do they have to grow up again?<BR/><BR/>Congrats on making it this far in your pregnancy. We thought going from 2 to 3 kids was mind blowing. I have no idea how complicated things will be with four. I'm sure we'll find out, no?Ehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14052197274679639669noreply@blogger.com
