It doesn't matter whether it's been done yet or not... it is whether it should be considered societally 'okay' to do this sort of thing to someone that can scarcely protest it and might not want it.

I don't like the very idea of parental guardianship... where the parent is given power beyond preventing the guarded from severe injury and death. Hell, I don't even think children should be named with anything more than a placeholder so far as the law is concerned.
Please give me a home where cloud buffalo roam
Where the dear and the strangers can play
Where sometimes is heard a discouraging word
But the skies are not stormy all day

I totally agree. That's why I changed my name.

Bob Dylan said it once (his real name was Bob Zimmerman), "it's your name ... you should be called what you want in life."

Of course, but it makes a point doesn't it?

I spose it does make a point. I shouldn't say anything - I fully support the ceasing of circumcision should the medical community establish that as a norm.

One can only hope they do.

When I was 5 years old, my mother always told me that happiness was the key to life. When I went to school, they asked me what I wanted to be when I grew up. I wrote down happy. They told me I didn't understand the assignment. I told them they didn't understand life.

I was circumcised because of my parents religion. Obviously god doesn't want your faith, he wants the skin of your penis. WTF IS WRONG WITH RELIGION!

Religion is like a Penis, you shouldn't whip it out in public and you shouldn't shove it down your child's throat.
