I would still consider this a very inadequate reason, but clearly you value it much higher.
How far would you take this to make your child fit in with other fads? What if other weird unecessary surgeries became common?
I think now your using "slippery slope" on me, and to me it's not weird, leaving the foreskin on seems weird to me. If my child was born with anything abnormal and it could be removed with a simple procedure I would probably do it.
I don't believe Rob is committing a slippery slope fallacy in his argumentation; he is merely asking where YOU, personally would draw the line, which I think is a question relevant to the discussion.
