Need info!

[thepeach80]

I have a very stubborn DH and I have very little info to share w/ him. Our ds is circed, but I don't want to circ any of the others (this assuming I have more boys). He is certain the foreskin does nothing (he said it was like an appendix)? I tried to convince him it does stuff (though I couldn't remember what at the time) and that God didn't make useless parts, but he still thinks I'm silly. Thanks for anything you can give me!

You should print the best two Mothering articles on-line, the Men's Health article, and the page on medical organizations, and give it to him to read:
http://www.mothering.com/10-0-0/html...cision85.shtml
http://www.mothering.com/10-0-0/html...rcson103.shtml
http://www.infocirc.org/MensHlth.htm
http://www.cirp.org/library/statements/

If those don't work make him watch a video:

If that doesn't work put your foot down and tell him that you won't allow anyone to hurt your son like that.

Jennifer;

Here's a very simple experiment that will show him without question that there is sexual sensitivity lost ot circumcision.

Bandage one of his fingers and leave it bandaged for two weeks. Then remove the bandage and note how much more sensitive that finger is than all of the others. The foreskin does the same thing as that bandage. It covers and protects the glans and allows it to be super sensitive just like the bandage did for the finger. Once he gets to that point, it shouldn't be too hard for him to conceive that the foreskin is not just some piece of numb skin and that it has sexual sensitivities all it's own as well as for the man's partner.

An appendix may be "useless". but nobody has surgery to remove it unless there is a problem.
