[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have an older child. I have never participated in changing the diapers of nor potty training the children of people I was not related to. When changing my child, I did it to give my child the privacy they deserved and I never looked at another naked child on purpose. Who are all these perverted people looking at other people's children and looking long enough to form an opinion on their genitalia? I think less of those people. [/quote]

That's fine, for you. But there are many people, myself included, who participate in some kind of baby-sitting swap that may at some point involving changing the diaper of someone else's child. I have changed the diapers of boy children that are not mine in that context, and yes, I have noticed if they are circumcised or not, in the same way I've noticed any other physical characteristic about that child. I'm not going out of my way to stare at the genitalia of someone else's child, but what you're saying is that in that situation, you would think less of me for changing a diaper? Should I allow my friend's son to sit in a poopy diaper until they get back from date night just so that you won't think less of me?[/quote]

Me too.  It's not something that I comment on (to you or the kid), or that I think about in any detail.  But you can't help noticing when you change another kids diaper and yes, I do feel a sense of mild disappointment in you and somewhat sorry for your child.  I don't discuss it with you, or raise it with you, or argue with you about it.  What's done is done.[/quote]
