I have often thought the same thing. Any mdc mom who has a intact son should have the or in there siggy so that others can see it and maybe think and head over here. Thanks for posting this.
I'd like to add that anyone who would like precious little boys to have the same protection that precious little girls have should add one of these too.
Never thought it necessary for preaching to the choir reasons, but if people are joining and posting who believe circ is OK, I'm up for having an intactivist sig!
Now, the mission for all of us who have been limiting ourselves to this forum is -- get out there and post! Especially in the Intro, Pregnancy, and Birth forums, TAO, etc. -- get the word out!
Goober, I don't know enough to explain, but if someone doesn't answer here, you can ask in Questions & Suggestions.
Burst out of the CAC ghetto, y'all! Preventing one circ before it happens is so much better than waiting till mamas drop in here afterwards full of regret & grief.
You can add more than one pic but you have to get one of the memberships to do it. They are under Support MDC in the left hand box at the top of the screen.
Maybe there could be Intactivist Ambassadors to welcome newbies in Pleased to Meet You and the DDC's and get them over to the CAC forum to do a little reading...
Sadly, it's not just newbies. Some older, quite established members have managed to miss the message as well.
There was a post in Questions & Suggestions about the one pic signature thing, if you don't want to pay for a subscription then you can just wait a while. Once you've been here a certain number of days (I believe, can't remember the specifics) then you can have more.
Smilies..... As of 10/10/2006, New Members are limited to 1 smilie in their signature and Members are limited to 8 smilies in their signature. 'New Members' move to the 'Member' group when they have accrued 50 posts and have been registered for 60 days. (click your name and choose view profile to see on what date you registered). See titles for information on membership levels. Don't want to wait? Check out the Premium Subscriptions. Supporting Member I, II & III subscriptions now include unlimited smilies in signatures.
Well, I have never "done" signatures (and on the other parenting board I frequent there aren't any anyways), but I've been thinking about adding a no circ siggie here and this thread has prompted me to finally do so. As a mom of 3 (almost, anyway!) beautiful intact boys I feel very comfortable being passionate about this issue.
Yay!!! I am so glad to see us motivated & steppin' out; I have been lazy about going to the birth forums & welcoming people, & I really should be doing it even if I didn't have such a kickass rockin' sig.
