How many of us actually have son/s that have noticed their parts are different to their little mates or siblings or fathers?

My boy is 6 and will jump in the spa nudie with his little friends and no-one seems to have noticed the differences...

Mine is only 3, but he hasn't noticed that he is different to his Dad at all.

I don't know if he cares too much either.

My sons dad is not circed, he hasn't said anything. He hasn't been around other boys naked so he hasn't noticed.

Between my 2 sons and DH there is no difference, not circumsised and the boys definatley take after their father. LOL

They are different to their cousin but I think thats only because hes circumsised.

Mine has asked why a friend little boys was different. I just told them that some little boys have that piece of skin cut off when they are really little but most dont.

The cringed, crossed their legs and walked away

ETA- they look different to their dad who is done but i think the difference in size, pubic hair etc make it so different that they dont ask.

Well dh isn't circumscised either...but I must say they still look very different....dh's is alot more impressive!

I was actually thinking about this the other day, "I wonder if he realises the difference or not?" If he does, then he has never said anything and neither have any of his little friends (Some circed, some not - about an even mix)
I guess maybe when he is a bit older, he and his friends may make comments about the differences etc, but I can honestly say that I have no idea what boys talk about (or even men for that matter! Besides the usual stuff... lol)
Is this an issue which men freely discuss with other men, or is it a bit taboo?

Same here..

My boys haven't noticed they're any different to any of their cousins...

but then I haven't really paid much attention to the differences in my and my friends breasts either, which way our nipples point, the size of them etc etc.. there always seems to be a baby stuck on the front anyway.

...

I don't think anyone really cares... they'd be more likely to joke and laugh about wee-ing on something rather than noticing that their penises looked different.

I do remember at school some of the guys discussing whether they were 'cut' or 'uncut'... in about the same way they'd discuss whether they had an xbox or a PS2... it wasn't like a 'bad' thing either way... just an accepted difference...

"You cut or uncut? You going to buy a new surfboard or a new skateboard?"
