Leavethemalone, I wasn't talking about HIV. I was talking about human papillomavirus (HPV) infections to female partners. As far as complications are concerned, I am sure there are some - there are complications to every thing we do- but as I said, neither my husband or son had any complications. And in my memory, I don't believe that I have ever heard of complications (from the people that I know). In my mind, it's just not a bad thing. I read once that when parents are trying to decide on circumcision, one important aspect is whether or not the father is circumcised. If so, then it leans towards doing the son, if not, then the son probably shouldn't be either.
