I sent this along to my 2 sons. Even in this country this is not a standard practice anymore, though there are plenty of parents that still request to have it done. The most frequent argument that I've heard is that they don't want their boy to look different than his Dad.

that's a good argument
circumcision is actually supposed to reduce the risk of most sexual diseases. but then again, it's not the middle ages anymore. in the mid-time, most states are are secular, most such diseases can be cured with a handful of antibiotics and condoms have been invented. why are parents even allowed to decide in this matter? i think it's residuals of a long gone barbaric world. if at all, then the boy/young man should decide something like this when he is old enough. I am just thinking of the poor little girls in some African countries who are havong their clitoris removed so they don't get to cheat on their husbands one day. in what sense is circumcision better? oh...it's done in a hospital. and that's it already.
