One Doctor's Words Against Circumcision

	posted by Matt on 01:28 AM January 4th, 2005
	This is part of a doctor's journal regarding his experience as an intern. It has some really good information re circumcision in it. Send it on to anyone who tells you it's "medically necessary" or "advantageous" to do this to an infant.

We're supposed to cut our hair short and shave, and we are expected to like watching sports and drinking beer. -Harq al-Ada, formerly Hawat

the usual reason (Score:1) by MAUS on 09:11 PM January 5th, 2005 EST (#3) I hate to say this but my own two grandsons were circumcised against my wishes. The reason? Their mothers prefer to see the exposed tip of the male penis when they are having sex and naturally assumed that all other females share this preference. Only a legal banning of the practice will ever stop it...women want it.

That seems like quite a thing to say when discussing your newborn babies. bg   Men are from EARTH. Women are from EARTH. Deal with it.
