To circumsize or not to circumsize????

[purplepoet20]

Just felt like saying...

I told my husband if we have a girl we don't have to worry about circ another boy. He said it's not fair that boys have to go through pain a girls don't. I told him women have to go through pain to produce offspring. And that I will be peircing a girls ears at 8 days so there is some pain for her too.

Circ is a parent decision. Some hate the idea and others think it is normal. In the end the parents should research about it and the different methods (some take to much skin and some dont take enough). It may be best to let the father decide what he wants done because he can "feel" for his son.

its not done here much anymore..i live in the usa but Medicaid doesnt cover it in my state, plus its expensive here and ourhospital advises against it. If it aint broken dont fix it! Id never do it to a baby , my dp had it done but it was 1980 back when America was more cut happy. Those that sa they are in the UK and never have to chose it are lucky but so many American women are so misinformed, however the tide has already turned...thank god!

All of my boys have had it done, we did it cause my hubby is and we didnt want them to ask question as why hubby looked different then them
