[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Only roughly 55% of newborns are circumcised in the US today. It varies widely by region and in metro vs rural areas. I can't find the data anymore, but some government website estimated that only about half of DC newborns were circumcised as of a few years ago. [b]With the large international population here, most boys who move here also won't have been circumcised.[/b] [/quote]

He comes from a part of the world immigrating to DC at a much faster clip than Western Europeans. [/quote]

Not all international people in this area have immigrated here.

??? what are you getting at, there are so many European nationals who have not taken citizenship as to be relevant to this conversation?[/quote]

There are a lot of international people in the DC area. Not all are immigrants.

Circumcision is not common in most countries.
