That is so true isn't it Vanita? Some cultures argue that it is an important part of their culture, yet we abhore it, so why do we feel it is OK to do that to our sons? i have no problems with others doing for whatever reasons they have, I just don't think it is a necessary thing and wouldn't do it to my son. RE the zipper thing, imagine what it would be like if you were done and you got the actual head caught?

Tracey, i've heard too about the loss of sensation, but you would only know if you had a foreskin and then had it removed IYKWIM?

BTW Trish, that's lovely you are having two little boys.

if we have another boy, Lindsay has set the precedent, so there is no way I could have one done and one not done, despite what DH wants to do.
