Description
While I am okay with circumcision, I do not support routine infant circumcision or forced circumcision, I think a person should only choose the circumcision for themselves if they want it and I would never make my children have a circumcision since I wouldn't want them to resent me or commit suicide because people have committed suicide over their circumcision.So, in a nutshell, I'm okay with circumcision, I just don't like routine infant circumcision or forced circumcision.

No harmful effects?
You mean except for the hundred infants that die just in the US every year from complications.

Then they are doing it wrong. Here in Israel it's safe and healthy. I can't speak for the goyim who practice circumcision but in Judaism we must do it, and we do correctly, in a way that is not harmful to our sons.
Millions of people should not just abandon their faith because of your Western bias. Assimilation is killing us. It's bad enough that Reform and Conservative Judaism are becoming so major, leaving behind the true, observant way Orthodox Judaism, but even secular, Reform and Conservative Jews follow this important practice.
Circumcision is what Hashem commands the Jewish people to do, and so we do it. It's a sacred covenant.

and I'm a toaster
oh and screw what Hashem commands, how about respect the rights of humans that we can actually SEE rather than something that MAY or MAY NOT exist?

Anti-Semitic? You are playing the race card. I hate infant circumcision because I think it is wrong, not because it's a Jewish practice. I would still hate it even if it was a African practice, or a Muslim practice, or any other religious or ethnic group, and I'm sure most people who are against it think the same way.
'no harmful effects"
I beg to differ. There are men who report less sexual pleasure after circumcision.

No harmful effects? There are more than 100 neonatal circumcision-related deaths annually in the US.

I so agree!
I was circumcised as a child, and I'm now doing foreskin restoration.
How do I put this stamp on my page?

Put the :thumbxxxxx: code on your page, you will see it on the stamp page you are looking at.

I REALLY agree now that I just figured out that I am circumcised (hey, I never saw pictures of what a circumcised penis looked like until now).

Exactly! If you, as an adult, want to mutilate your penis- go nuts! Want to hack away at the penis of a baby? Hell no.

It's so nice to see someone else who's for voluntary circs.
Usually I just see people who go, "IT'S 1000000% NECESSARY AND SHOULD BE DONE TO NON-CONSENTING CHILDREN" or people who go, "IT'S NEVER EVER EVER EVER EVER OKAY NO MATTER WHAT 5EVER."

Especially since it has nothing to do with a boy's health. Far not every man gets problems with their foreskin. And if they have problems, they still can have a circumcision. While inoculations are really important for babies but many parents by now think that childhood diseases were not dangerous at all. They really have an advantage for the child. Circumcision does not.

I feel exact same way, it should be the choice of the individual.
