Getting my son circumsized

posted 18th Feb
Everyone in my family (mainly mom, gma, female relatives) say I should get my son cirumsized.
But I dont see why I should have to, or even want to. Ive had several past boyfriends and even the babys father is not cirumsized and they dont mind it or have problems with it at all. And all of their mothers taught them how to clean themselves properly and all that.
So I guess my question is, pros and cons of getting him circumsized? Or pros and cons of not getting him circumsized?
Or just your opionion in general.

Thanks

Its up to you and the father. Your grandma, mom and everyone else do not matter.

it sounds like you dont have a strong feeling on it so why not just avoid doing it and BD isnt so he probably would say not to as well?

Do what you feel is best. Your mom has no say. It's not like if she says she wants him circumcised that they'll take him. You need to sign a consent, so it's not like she could do it behind your back (I know that's not what you asked, just letting you know)

And my boys are both cut. Both of their dads are and that's what they chose. I don't have a penis so I don't know what it's like. I researched and couldn't find anything to sway me into not getting it done.

Quoting The4of_us:" Do what YOU believe is truly best for your Son."

  It's your kid, not theirs. I got mine circumcised, mostly for religious beliefs. If anyone was to try to tell me I'm wrong for doing it, I would tell them I have my reasons and they don't need to worry about it because it's honestly nobody else's business. If I decided not to do it, same thing, nobody else's business. They can worry about their own kid.

Baby boy should be like his Daddy. If SO is uncircumcised then he obviously knows how to care for himself and clean and stuff which he will pass on to your little boy.

don't do it then.

I wouldn't even discuss that with family... It is none of their business.

I LOVE the responses in this thread!

OP, YOU should decide for yourself what is right for your son. There are pro and con arguments and you should carefully consider them all.

That's true. I've never brought it up nor would I care to hear any of their opinions.

I dont have a son but DH is so I would..

My best friends hub wasnt (also wasnt educated and was in an orphanage as a child so idk if that effects anything)
And it woulf be painful when they had sex, like the ectra skin would rip during sex and he would bleed and be in serious pain. So he ended up gtting circumsized as an adult instead.

Its honestly a personal preference

Why?

If this baby is a boy, he will remain intact.

OP, do what you feel is best, regardless of what anyone says.

Do what you want. Not what anyone else wants!
EVERY person on DHs side wants my son to be cut. I said HELL NO. It's his body, his penis, his decision. If he wants it done later in life, that's his choice.
If you don't feel like it's right for your son, then don't have it done. My personal opinion, he was born with it so it's staying. God put it there for a reason. There's no medical reason to have it done.

Good luck
