Rant #2

I must be in bitchmode today b/c everything is really pissing me off lol.

Why is circumcision SUCH a hot debate topic???
I understand people have very strong opinions on the matter, but how about not being so fucking judgemental about it???
Like the asshats who want to say that it's barbaric and they don't know how anyone could "torture" their baby by getting it done.
Even if you do believe that, which is totally fine b/c we all have opinions.... how about saying it in a better way so you're not attacking those that want to have it done for their LO???? Huh? Can we do that?? Ya know.. be MATURE adults that can discuss shit without calling anyone names??

And if you couldn't tell, yes, if we're having a boy, he's getting circumsized. I fully understand that it's a totally unncessary procedure and there's no medical benefits and blahblahblah. All crap I've heard before!
I don't give a flying shit what anyone thinks about the matter.
It's not torture, we're not taking him to some dirty back alley where a hobo is going to chew it off. He's not going to fucking remember it, and it's not going to make his willy rot and drop off. DH is circumsized and does VERY well with his bald one eyed monster thank you very frickin much!

It's not your baby so how about shutting the hell up about what others want to do. This is NOT abuse so mind your own damn business.



Phew... ok lets see if anything else rubs me the wrong way today........ other than my mom who called only to once again tell me that we needed to get rid of our dogs b/c they're going to make our baby sick and die.......

I agree that for or against it, it is a personal decision for parents to make. It is not up for judgement.

LOL the Pregnancy Hormones raging yet ;)
There will always be arguments on THAT side about Circumcision , BF v. FF , Cloth diapering and immunizations .
And when there are a lot of pregnant women arguing , god help us all !
Ignore them , that's what got me through it . Ur the Mama and u know what is best for ur child , trust ur gut and tell everybody to F*** off

We'll obviously do it because of religious beliefs, but on some forums they don't even think that's ok! IMO saying someone's religion is wrong because of something so ridiculous is taking it way too far! Some women are just bored and have nothing better to do than argue with other people online...

Yeah, I saw some say that about religion shouldn't be a factor and blahblah. Just made me angrier and I had to rant about it lol.

I was looking online at these things called "pee pee tee pees" (little cloth tee pee shaped things that you put on your LO's who ha to keep him from peeing all over the place or in his face during diaper change time). I recommended them to an online forum and a woman encouraged me not to buy those, but rather to "keep my sons intact" so that things like that aren't unnecessary. Umm, okay. No. And when you say "keep them intact" you are implying that I amputated something off my child? I do not appreciate the assumption there AT ALL. I feel my own post about this forthcoming...

This is one topic I no longer debate because of the hysteria and hyperbole. Try not to let it get to you. I've found that the topic rarely comes up in real life. If anyone does have the gall to ask you to your face what your plans are I suggest you inquire why they're so interested in your son's penis. That usually shuts people up.

OH, if only you were in this mood when the natural child birth debate was going around and don't get me started on breast feeding.

We all struggle so damn hard to get to this point, let us all make our decisions for ourselves. Everyone is entitled to their own way of raising their LO once the miracle arrives. I don't understand why some people feel their way is the only way.

I respect other's right to choose. What they choose may not be right for me. but I respect their decisions. I only hope they can respect mine.

Let it all out dear...don't let that anger increase your blood pressure....it's waaaay too early for that :)
