Hi Lindie,

my XH is a muslim but both Zaki and Shay are not circumcised. I think Muslims prefer to do it when the child is 8-12 years of age anyway, which I reckon is worse! They're both getting past that age anyway so I don't think it's going to be happening!

My mum swears by it and my sister's boys are are both circumcised, and it's not so much that I disagree rather than I would rather avoid it if I can. If my DH said he definitely wanted it done, I guess I'd have to think about it. But it just seems unnecessary, you know? XH was circumcised and DH isn't. Is there a difference to me? Not really.

I don't know that I contributed anything to the discussion - Lol - but yes, circumcision seems to be a touchy subject in general.

love
sushee
