That is pretty awful...

Wow, I am sorry. I don't know what the laws are in your state, but that is just flat out awful!
My DH was asked once by one of the office workers if we had our son circ'd. He told me, he said something to the effect of "God, NO!" (responding as if she had asked him if we'd had his arm removed or some other insane question). But, he left it at that, not adding anymore.
I kind of wish he had, or at least forwarded her email address to me. He told me after the fact.
And, not wanting to make me upset, waited two weeks to tell me that she went the next week, had her son circ'd (she had not wanted it done...but had people pressuring her) then her son had some complications.
My husband generally doesn't discuss personal matters on work time. Probably why he didn't dive into it. But, what he could have said was "Oh, God No...and we did the research, which overwhelmingly supported our decision". Anything like that might have made her research more...

The only person who I remember saying anything was a woman who talked about her grandson while I was pregnant and before I knew the sex of our baby. I was just beginning to investigate circ and mentioned it to her. She told me how bad she felt for her little grandson because he was circ'd and his little penis was so red and painful and he screamed whenever air hit it.

I thank GOD I live in CA!!! That would be illegal in this state...as far as I know. I can't be fired from my job either, I'm a sub-contractor. We don't really talk about these issues at work among eachother, but I do talk about it with clients on occasion. I have to be a bit careful, as I have lost clients in the past from controversial conversation. I try to keep it as professional as possible....my income depends on it.
...and FYI, it's glans...not glands.

: LOL I get ahead of myself when I type sometimes.
Islay, nope, MOST employment in my state is at-will. They can fire me for whatever they want, just the same as I can just not show up one day. The only way I could sue them is if they tried to say I did something that I didnt do. Like say they said I stole, or broke a law, and I didnt, and they cant prove it, then I could sue. I looked into it after the whole incident and essentially what they did was legal. Besides the fact, I dont know what the statute of limitations is, but it is probably far exceeded by now. It was an unfortunate incident, but honestly I wasnt going to sit their and let them tell me what I did was wrong and discusting.
It doesnt surprise me that they reacted the way they did, the circ rate in my state/area is so high. Besides 2 of my guy friends, and my step dad, I dont know of anyone else who is intact. I didnt even know any of them were, until we left DS intact, and I was praised by all 3 of them.

Revamp, you mean the intact men in my life?
No, they never mentioned it, because I never mentioned it..I didnt even look into circ much before I had DS..I knew the basics, certainly hadnt seen a vid or anything, but DH and I both just knew we werent going to do it. My mom didnt even know we hadnt done it until she visited in the hospital, and changed his diaper. She was like, oh they didnt circ him yet? I was like, nope, and he wont be.

I saw it as our business, not anyone elses.
