I think circumcision is helpful in the prevention of infections (along with a soap bar of course) and it helps prevent penile cancer and possible cervical cancer in their partners. Its also done for religious purposes and that should be respected even if not understood.
What I don't understand is how we can get all worked up over taking a piece of skin off of a babies penis the moment they are born, but its ok when they are coming out the birth canal to stab a pair of sissors in the back of their heads and suck their brains out before they take their first breath of air. (partial birth abortion) God help this Country. Just an opinion ... I don't need a ton of mean , sarcastic replies.
Proposal To Ban Circumcision: Should the proposal pass?

Many European Parliamentary parties are considering banning the circumcision on new born boys. The circumcision of girls has already been banned for many years now, but now boys may not be able to legally circumcised in certain European countries. Circumcision was originally a Jewish tradition, but many Muslim and Christians have supported the practice for many years as well. Why you ask? Because many people feel that boys or men should be able to decide for themselves whether they would like to be circumcised. The age of consent and jurisdiction over ones own body is 15 in Denmark where this proposal started.
Should the proposal to ban circumcision pass? Should circumcision be left up to the individual?

And to clear things up...I never said we got our son circumcised because it was in his best interest--- you have been implying that--I said I do what is in the best interest of my children. And I always will.
And considering Christianity is directly linked to Judaism I would re-think that statement.
it might not be relevant but the point is WHY say you don't want to imagine that kind of pain but then put that SAME kind of pain on an infant child? the child might not remember it true but the point is there WAS pain put on the child cause of some stupid ass tradition or a "religion" that was being served more than 2000 yrs ago when later was said in the bible it's no longer an issue or cause some fucked up "study" that proved to be wrong on this issue says it's healthier or "best" for the child nobody really KNOWS whats in the best interest of the child unless it something medically wrong like how someone mentioned a bone marrow transplant and drs say either do this or let the child die... THEN it's in the best interest of the child to go ahead and do it ho...

THEN it's in the best interest of the child to go ahead and do it however THIS Is not the case circumcision is done for alot of reasons... and ALL those reasons are fucked up reasons to do it
so your parents had it done and your happy about it good for you not everyone IS happy about it just because u were FINE with it doesn't mean it's the BEST thing
cause the dr aparently didn't know what the fuck he was doing and took too much skin off and when they got an erection there skin was very tight and painful
so you think THAT was the best thing??? just because you can't imagine it or it didn't happen to you doesn't mean it doesn't happen or it won't happen... it didn't happen to me either but i look back and think what MIGHT have happened if they did botch it up i don't look at it as it was done to me and i'm fine so i think its the best thing because it's not to me i think it was the WORST thing someone could do to me even tho i didn't have any real serious complications other than the fact that ppl that aren't are having a much better sex life than i am
