Actually we did it because my family has a long-ridden phobia against germs, etc. It was a tradition started many, many moons ago in response to all the WWI veterans returning with infections from life in the trenches.

Infections DID occur in the trenches. It was just their "thinking" that was f'ed up. Although it would be a long shot for me to get one (I never went into battle trenches) their thinking was that it was better to get the operation done when you're a baby than when you're an adult. Personally, I think it's no less traumatic than when you're a baby...especially since babies aren't able to produce enough of the adrenaline (or some other sort of chemical stimulant, a natural pain killer) prior to the operation.

But yeah ok, it probably happened in the trenches. True. It probably grew into an old wives' tale and paranoia.

	If you take anything in this forum overly serious, you should really go and see a doctor.

Memba Posts: 6,919 Group: Members Member #132 Joined: Dec 3, 2008 Gender: Male Ancestry: Southern European Religion: Spiritual Politics: Center	Yeah, me too. Just like 7-11. My foreskin was cut by the doctor...not for religious ceremonies and not due to ethnicity (my immediate forebears were uncircumcized, or so I've been told). Reminds me of a joke. A Jewish couple asked their Mohel how much he charges for a circumcision. The Mohel replies: "Nothing, I just take tips." lolololol. Edited by Caudium, Jul 23 2012, 08:37 PM.

I am European and Christian so no reason for it. The only reason for circumcsion can be madical issue. For the rest it is just wrong, especially if they do it to innocent babies. As for the women that like it, well they should get circumcised themselves! Edited by Jizo, Nov 28 2012, 01:37 PM.
