[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Unless there is a medical reason (at birth) or [b]religious belief[/b], I recommend against it.  Although more problematic and/or painful later in life, circumcision can be elected by the male if needed or desired.  Children are NOT property and parents should NOT be the ones who change the body God/Nature has provided in their child-- unless imminent for health/quality of life.  I was circumcised shortly after birth-- wish I had been left intact.  There are pluses and minuses with respect to health, sexual pleasure and other factors-- but parents, PLEASE LET YOUR SON DECIDE-- not you.[/quote]

Why does this make it okay?[/quote]

Because beliefs about God are important to human culture?  Geez, I didn’t circumcise our son, but please. [/quote]

So you're cool with families that circumcise their daughters because it's part of their religious beliefs? Sauce for the goose is sauce for the gander. It can't be OK to circumcise one gender because religion without also being OK to circumcise the other because religion.[/quote]
