I would be sueing my parents right now if they did do it...

I would follow the dictum "If it ain't broke, don't fix it".

You could not sue your parents in the US for this. Its the common culture
practice.

Other than putting a guilt trip on some parents your not going to change one person mind on the issue either. The reason for and against it are equalily stupid in my mind.
Which means its a non-issue.

And that is why I am glad I do not live in the US, and you can sue people here, won't hurt to not do it till later when the child can make his own choice, they is more risk of doing it than not doing it at the time if you read the site... Does not say it benifits just cut's down the % doesn't mean you can't and they is problems that can come up in the future, can't see why you would want to take 1 low risk away to put another low risk one in...

Should not effect them if they going down the road & researched it, but this site provides all the info in 1 place... for or against... You put the person under the same risk as having cough Enlargement...

From what I've read, the only medical advantage of having male circumcision is where a boy has a tight foreskin and that is to make it easier for him to keep clean and to urinate.

There is absolutely NO medical benefit to female circumcision.
