I'm currently riding a sushi high, so I'm feeling extra loquacious.
See, I even feel like using the word loquacious doesn't make me a cunt. I'll feel differently in an hour or so.
I am circumcised, and I don't hold any hard feelings towards my parents for doing it to me. I don't think there are too many examples of really angry boys, because even though you lose a lot of nervous tissue, sexual function is not hampered.
Still, given the choice, I don't feel like there's a logically defensible reason to circumcise your child without a medical reason. Seriously. There just isn't. Leastwise I've not heard one yet. I won't be doing it, and I can't understand why a person would willingly cut off a portion of their child's genitalia for cosmetic or preferential reasons.
I think what most people are objecting to, CL, is the cavalier nature of your reasoning. I understand that your husband wants it, but is that a closed book? Is your husband the final word in this matter? I think sometimes we take to much stock into the way we are used to things and don't look at things from an objective standpoint.
Can I ask a question? What is a good reason for infant circumcision?

"There remain four irreducible objections to religious faith: that it wholly misrepresents the origins of man and the cosmos, that because of this original error it manages to combine the maximum servility with the maximum of solipsism, that it is both the result and the cause of dangerous sexual repression, and that it is ultimately grounded on wish-thinking." ~Christopher Hitchens, god is not Great
