Patting my DH on the back!  

post #1 of 3
Thread Starter 
DH had told me that one of the guys at work had a baby boy and instantly I said "yay" sarcastically because I'm assuming he'll be circ'ed. Well DH told me he came in to work the other day to get some things from his desk and said he was on the way back to the hospital because they're coming home. He said they had to wait until he got circ'ed! : So DH asked him, "why did you have him circ'ed?" And the guy said "why not?" DH asked why again and the guy said "because I am and so is my other son and it's cleaner" : So DH instantly said that's not true and the guy said "oh you don't know what you're talking about" and walked out......is that some guilt there???? I think so, why else get so defensive and walk out like that?? It's so sad! I told DH next time talk to a father BEFORE the baby's born....makes more sense. But I'm really shocked he even brought it up!

I definitely applaud him as well.

We already know how circ'd men are defensive about the issue though.

That's great that he said something - it takes guts. And perhaps it will make the other guy think in future...sometimes passing comments plant seeds that mature later on...
