re: #20 Obdicut

Contact sports and ballet are separate arguments, they have nothing to do with this discussion.

I agree that they only valid reasons to circumcise a child would be medical. But that still means that it should meet some sort of test to see if it’s medically necessary. Really, treat it like an appendectomy or tonsillectomy. If it is for simple prophylactic reasons you should let the person make that choice when they are an adult.

And hopefully the threat of jail and losing your children would deter you from making choices for them that you have no right to make.
