[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm a cut man and my son is intact. And it doesn't matter.

Honestly, 'my son's genitals should look like mine' is one of the creepiest and most bizarre concepts I've heard. [/quote]

OK, thanks. By doesn't matter, I'm taking you to mean that it hasn't affected potty training, hygiene instruction, whatever -- right?

Did you ever explain why they look different or does your son just accept it without caring?[/quote]

It hasn't affected those things. Correct.

My son and his sister asked about the difference and I explained that doctors used to thing it was an important thing to do but now they know it's fine to leave baby boys alone and many parents choose to. [/quote]

OP here -- thank you. Down-to-earth and simple explanation that a child can understand. I remember my father had certain vaccination marks on his body that we didn't have, but the medical/historical explanation made sense to us. I guess that this could also work to some extent with the religious identity, since so many laws/prohibitions are no longer followed as communities evolve.
