whether or not it's a purely cosmetic surgery seems to be debatable, from a medical and hygienic standpoint. however, instead of just the wiki articles and whatnot, i'm going to ask my friend's wife who is in residency to be a ob/gyn/baby-yanker-outer what the deal is. they just had a baby boy about a month ago, and i'd like to know what they did. neither are remotely jewish, so religion i don't think will be an issue. the rest of your post is necessarily contingent on the purely cosmetic angle; but i also would posit that this very much seems to me to be a six in one / half dozen in the other issue. i've never actually thought much about it before, and i can't really find myself compelled to vigorously get upset over it in particular. i do think your demonization of parents who have their kids circumsized is a bit over the top. i'd get much more upset over the fucked up mental and psychological images and values we pass on as a society as compared to the great circumcision debate.
