SueW I think my stance is similar to yours- it should be our child's choice.
I don't think Mgv was trying to be offensive and imply our hygiene was less than the average jewish womens but perhaps trying to find a reason for the lower cervical cancer rates. I think the papiloma virus and multiple partners probably has more influence.
Hygiene seems to be the most common reason people choose circumcision and I think I'll borrow a response from a weblink I was sent. My children don't brush their teeth very well but that does not meen I'll have their teeth removed as a preventative measure.
