help I am so upset I cant breath - Page 3

Honestly, I would ask him when was the last time he thought about HIS dad's penis. Does he care if he looks like HIS dad?

Probably not.

This sounds like he needs (or you do without him) to set some boundries with his parents. He isn't married to them, he is married to you.

we are not circing our son still he told me he could never do it to his son and he told his dad that too... hopefully his dad wont make a big deal over it, he isnt the type to make a huge deal outof things...

but yea neither of us want him circed Oviously me but he is right on the same page as me still.

I know I'm way late and he's already said you guys wont do it...but I just wanted to add-my son is intact, 8 years old. His dad is circ'd. My son has NEVER noticed that they look different-I mean, they look so different down there anyway!! He has, however, asked about a neighbor kid and asked why his penis looked funny. I think he's more likely to notice a kid his own age or close to it looking differently until he's much much older. I mean, they look SO different down there until they hit puberty anyway...and by then its insanely easy to explain why they look different. My 8 year old knows about circumcision because of his little friend, but otherwise, he probably would've been clueless for a long time. (and even with a younger kid, it isnt exactly difficult to explain that the other kid had that piece of skin cut off when he was a baby because his mom/dad probably thought it was better, but that theres no real reason to do it....seeing his reaction to the thought of having *that* part of his anatomy cut off for no reason pretty much said it all. He's fine with the way he is!!)

I also know several women who prefer intact men and out of everyone I've ever met and discussed this with (and we, being chicks, talk about it. lol), I've only met one who really disliked intact penises. No one else cared either way. And honestly-she probably doesnt even KNOW if shes been with more than one who was intact, as that guy had a lot of foreskin, and stayed covered while erect. Most guys dont....she didnt believe me, lol.
