Circumcision

CarlyjaneK · December 2014

My husband and I are officially having a boy! We are doing a home birth and will not be in the hospital but have other options in getting him circumcised. I'm on the fence. I feel as long as I teach him good hygiene he doesn't need the unnecessary pain... thoughts?
I've read contradicting articles.
Thanks!

We've discussed this topic nearly to death.

Seconding Goofy here.

I, too, used to be a sadistic necrophiliac with a pension for bestiality, but alas, I grew tired of beating a dead horse and learned the most magical land of Searchfoyaself.

Saw the below yesterday, it's an article on a new CDC study re circumsicion and the potential benefits.

As others have said if you circumcise some will agree with you and others will not and vice versa- do your research and decide what is best for your child.

If you're going to beat a dead horse, can you resurrect one of the old zombie circumcision threads to do it in? All the links and opinions are already there so we don't have to go over it. Again.

I read the article hoping for new research but it's just referencing the same studies done in Africa. I can't see how this adds anything to the conversation?

ETA- not you @Bostonchelle‌ the new statement.

I really like Penn and Tellers Bullshit on Circumcision video clip too.

On another note, me and DH have been seriously talking about it, and I think I got him on the No-Circ Team.

Also in reference to the article, wtf is "gay sex"? If we're talking anal sex, I'm pretty sure a lot of folks of varying sexuality participate in that activity.
Lol I'm chuckling like a little girl over here for some reason. I didn't know the butt sex was just for gay men..

I guess I'm a gay man. Don't tell my husband, I think the news would alarm him.

I saw that & had the same thought. I think they mean sex between two men (any 'style'). Basically I think they mean semen exchange...maybe? For medical 'advice' it could be more clear.

Hahaha, I love Adam Ruins Everything videos. The engagment rings and dog breed ones are the best!
