[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My reasons for circ have nothing to do with looks and everything to do with health and reducing the likelihood of stds per the studies cited already. If you want to believe the research doesn't apply to your son for some reason then fine but stop trying to make it about parents being shallow. [/quote]

Plenty of people do it for shallow reasons, especially simple men who say "my son's penis should look like mine". [/quote]

My OB/GYN said, regarding this procedure, that "all men in the house should look the same", but I forgot to scold her for being shallow.[/quote]

This isn't just shallow. It's idiotic.[/quote]

21 years ago when we were first making this decision, my husband was shocked to learn that while he's circ'ed, his father isn't.  So much for everyone looking the same.  Nevermind that the father's junk is mature and looks nothing like the child's, circ'ed or not.  When I hear this "logic", I wonder why it doesn't apply to moms and breasts?[/quote]

Uh, because there is no medical procedure that can make breasts look fundamentally different, and in any event girls don't have breasts until puberty whereas boys always have penises?

And also, opinion of medical professional >>> opinion of random anonymous idiot on the internet[/quote]
