I acknowledge that whether to circumcise baby boys is a private decision.

I am glad that information about the benefits leaving sons intact was readily available when my son was born over 2 decades ago.

This is clearly deeply culturally entrenched as being the case, but I am not sure that I agree. I just don't see how parents can have the right to cut off pieces of their children without specific medical reason. I abhor seeing babies with earrings, and having pierced ears is much more minor (both in terms of initial pain and long-term physical difference) than being circumcised.

Let me stop you right there. "Deeply culturally entrenched" is very right. That's why it is best for everyone to decide what's best for themselves and/or their children in this matter. It would also be best not to judge people for what they decide to do or not do.

All I can say is that I'm glad I had a girl. I dont think I could have handled it. It's the parents decision weather or not to do what they think is right.

WHO CARES???

Is your kid's life going to be changed at all?? Any guy who goes around feeling like they missed out on something worth noticing because their parents had his dick snipped a little clearly doesn't have enough to do with their time.

Absolutely not!

The parents should always do what they think is right.

Most circumcisions today, in Australia, are done only so the boy can be like dad.
