Circumcision News Story (with a pros & cons chart)

"On a personal note, I hadn't done the research with my first son, but by the time my second son was born, I knew I didn't want him circumcised, but my husband insisted. Despite MANY discussions, (some heated) he would not change his mind. He didn't think it would be right to have one son circumcised. and the other one not, even though I tried to reason w/ him and point out the boys would not be comparing their penises. He also used the argument about uncircumcised penises not being as clean and hygienic, and his sons looking like him- again, do father and sons really compare them?

I refused to sign the circumcised papers at the hospital and left it to him and I didn't go to either circumcision, but it just makes me cringe to think about both my boys even having shots there- I really can't even think about this too much, b/c it makes me SO upset. It is the one point that my husband and I argued over more than anything w/ all the decisions you have to make. Sometimes I think I should have been stronger for my sons, and not finally given in, but after birth & pregnancy I was just too tired to fight about it anymore.

Finally I am still really angry at my husband for doing this, and talk about irony- after son #2 was born, he was telling his parents that I didn't want the baby boy circumcised and he went on and on to his parents on about how hard it was to keep uncircumcised ones clean, etc., His father got up and left, and then his mom told him that his father was uncircumcised. My husband had no idea- so I guess that proves fathers and sons don't compare their penises. He felt awful about going on like that w/ his father, and THEN decided maybe I had valid points after all- Jeez... I just wish our sons didn't have to go through this b/c of his issues."

There are no pros, circumcision is just one big con. It is sexual abuse and ruins sex for men and women.

People who still defend routine circumcision are in denial, don't have all the facts, or are sexual predators.

Get educated, circumcision is genital mutilation and it's wrong.

[areseepee]

circumcision is genital mutilation, noone wants to admit it. It's only done to infants because they can't stop it from happening.

@heathman8282 do a youtube search for circumcision gone wrong.

#i2 Get with the 21st Century = Safe Sex Education; Condoms; Soap & Water; Medical Ethics & Human Rights = End Infant Circumcision NOW!!

[TiniNormi]

No scientific evidence to back up feeling distressed, so that makes it okay? Are you fucking serious? There's no "scientific evidence" that killing someone will make their family members cry either, so I guess murder is okay. Fucking retards.

[Dontgetyouppl]

This is NOT a safe procedure ! Thousands of babies die from hemmorageing ! A baby can only loose an ounce of blood before they die . This is indead crule and unsafe !

[HubZerO]

biggest con is that you cant fap LOLOL poor americunts

[shfbdfi1273]

The Hospital is only interested in $. I was against circumcision for my 2 sons. But my wife believed in the doctor more than me. The decision belong to our sons. If they want to do it. They can do it when they are older. My wife thinks that I'm intact because my parents were unsophisticated. Sounds like my wife got brain washed.
