[quote=Anonymous]I am not Jewish, but I had my son circumcised. I think that this is so contentious, because both the costs and benefits are quite low, in risk management terms. While the reduced disease transmission, cancer, and UTI incidence are well-documented, as other posters have pointed out, men in developed countries have other resources to reduce the incidence of effect or these health issues. Circumcision is also a commandment in Jewish and Islamic traditions, but leading a rich life in these faiths has little to do with being circumcised. The costs, however, don't seem to be that high. Most men born between 1950 and 1980 in the US are circumcised, and I have never once had an American Gen-X man say to me "Oh, sex, I can take or leave it. you know I can barely feel it."[/quote]
