What can I do to encourage my Puerto Rican husband to get circumcised?

Don't make this a race issue, just need culturally-specific advice.What can I do to encourage my Puerto Rican husband to get circumcised?
Adult circumcision is a big step... and unpleasant. It's also not really neccessary, as long as sensible hygiene precautions are taken.


If hygiene is an issue, you might try explaining to him that, if he makes a little effort to keep his penis sweet and clean, you will feel more inclined to come close to it... that should be incentive enough.... *smile*What can I do to encourage my Puerto Rican husband to get circumcised?
why? when my son was born in 1999 we decided to leave well enough alone. Needed to teach him to ensure basic cleaning practices but nothing further. Other than for religious choices there are no real reasons for it. All previous medical reasons have been proven to be myths.
Why would you want to.If you think it will make him better you are to shallow for him and he should find someone who likes him for the way he is and not try to remake him
Maybe he feels that he has a better sensation w/o being cirumcised. Did you ask him?
Let him talk to a person who is also circumcised.


He will explain the advantages.
Nothing. And if it bothered you, then you shouldn't have married him.
I guess you would need to explain to him why you would want him to be that way. You have to understand that doing this as an adult can be very painful and have some bad side effects like infection. Getting a guy to WANT to do this can be difficult. But I think, personally, it would be better to accept him the way he is.
Almost all Latin men are left intact....and I doubt if he is going to want to chop off a part of him. It is you who needs to come around and understand that most men in the world are left this way, and that there is nothing wrong with it.
i believe it's cleaner. and speaking as one who is, if someone asked me now at my age to do it, i think i'd say no....hate pain
oh... in my experience.... any latino man is very proud of his manhood... and if anything threatens to hurt it then they will have no part in it..... good luck.....maybe you can convince him that it will be easier to clean and give him less likelyhood of infections?
Visit a urologist. Pain is not a big factor and it is a quick and small procedure done while under anesthetic.
Super Glue his foreskin to his stomach while he is asleep. Do this for as long as it takes. If he is smart he will get that little thing lopped right off.
