[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As someone who's a Reformed Jew and a mother of a circumcised boy, I agonized over this but... the week my son was born[b] the American Academy of Pediatrics came out in favor of circumcision, and that cemented my intent.[/b] Beyond hygiene, lower rates of HIV infection, lower incidence of cervical cancer for long-term female partners... it was pretty compelling to me. My son also had to see urologists for some kidney issues: interestingly all have commented that they're glad he was circumcised (and that the mohel did a great job). Hopefully your son won't have any medical issues, but, just in case... I'm glad I did it.[/quote] In 2010, the AAP also came out in favor of a mild form of female genital cutting. They soon rescinded the policy, but only due to intense public backlash.[/quote]
