I don’t feel like it’s my place to judge someone for their parenting decisions, and I have full respect for both sides of this particular spectrum.
However, I personally would never circumcise my son unless it was a medical necessity because… well, it just doesn’t seem natural to me to snip a perfectly healthy piece of skin off of an infant’s body. Plus, there is not enough of a medical benefit to the procedure to convince me that it’s the better thing to do. If I ever have a boy (James, please get a vasectomy, I just know you’re gonna get me pregnant again one of these days if you don’t, and besides, it just feels so much better *without* a condom…), I’m all for keeping his perfect little penis exactly the way that God made it… whether his daddy’s parents made a different decision or not. Again, that’s just the choice that I would make, and I don’t believe it’s the right choice for everyone.
Luckily, James is in agreement with my reasoning. Otherwise I’d have to go at his member with a cigar snipper to prove my point.
No, I wouldn’t actually cut him. I like his penis waaaay too much to alter it.
