[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Honestly, I don't see why OP needs to attack someone who disagrees and I don't think its necessary to use the word mutilation.  Our DS was circumcised for religious reasons and I certainly don't think he was mutilated.  There are arguments on both sides.  It DOES prevent the transmission of sexually transmitted diseases, including HIV.  On the other hand, some people think it affects sensation (though, uh , none of the circumcised men I've been with seemed deprived in that area.)  Having witnessed my son's bris it was clear to me that he wasn't being tortured.  It took literally seconds and the moyel gave him a tiny bit of wine.  I think they also sometimes use topical anesthetics.

There's no right answer here but OP if you keep with the highly charged language I don;t see how you are going to resolve this with your husband.  Seriously, if I were him I would think you were so jacked up about this issue that we wouldn't even be able to discuss it.  The hit to your marriage seems more significant than anything the baby will go through.[/quote]

OP here.

I think you missed my question.

We're in a very happy marriage, we love each other and could not be more thrilled with the arrival of our little one. Marriage counseling is not necessary.

[b]And if you think that mutilating your son will prevent him from getting an STD you should educate yourself about the issue.[/quote][/b]

Maybe if you avoided using words like "mutilating" your husband would be more receptive to your point of view. [/quote]
