Chances are he has no idea what he would have lost. Many intact men really do not understand how lucky they are. You have all the answers and I'm sure you could change their mind. That way you will have their support rather than a standoff.
True. Even if he was circumcise for a valid reason - he got to enjoy his foreskin for a lot of years (unless it happened as a child). I rather enjoy having breasts both for feeding babies AND for sexual purposes. If in ten years, I have breast cancer and have to have a mastectomy - I will still be glad that I got 46 years with NOT having them cut off. Don't boys deserve that with their foreskins? I mean, even if they do for some weird medical reason need to be circ'd when their 50-60-70 or whatever - I would think that would be better than never having been able to experience sex the way it's supposed to be. I hope that's making sense what I'm trying to say. I'm really tired.

You make great sense and this is a point not usually brought up. Great post!
