Hello,
I was talking to my fiancee and one of her best friends boy is going to have a circumcision and she is invited to the party afterwards I do not know alot about this ceremony but understand why it is done. She told me that Eddis who is nine will have a nice big comfortable bed afterwards and he will also have a party where family and friends bring gifts. When my fiancee's nephew had this performed he wore a white suit I found it a very proud moment for the family in this tradition and Nes showed me his picture.

Never really understood this as a celebration time. Circumsitions are typically done at the time of birth in other cultures. Why do they think this is something to celebrate? Sounds very painful.

aren't some pains joyfull?

well,was a joke only,and yes circumcision traditions even shows some differences depend of type of Turkish families.and its still very warm and alive for the traditional families,while the its just a health metter for a small part of Turkish people..(and its easier with anestehsia )

Turkish males more more important for their families (especially traditional families) 4 times in their life 1-when they born 2-when they circumsation 3-when they going to army 4-when they getting married

Yes your right,those four things are big mile stones in a turkish males life.

Living in England we have not such good traditions and we rarely have this type of culture that brings everybody together at one time and celebrate these occassions. I for one would like to take part in as much of these occasions as possible and really feel part of my new family and new friends I have made. I am going to make a confession here I recently had a circumcision myself why there was no particulary need to have this done but I do now respect my new fiancee and my new life and wanted to feel part of this new life, the only thing is I did not have a party to celebrate

no worries brother,i hope you can do that for ur son's on the future
