Wanting, they must not want to realize that circ, doesn't reduce the risk of contracting HIV. Just because you circ your son doesn't mean a thing. Let's be honest here, circ (besides for whomever's religion) is more cosmetic than anything. I will say that in the event that your son should contract another STD not HIV, it may be worse without the circ. That's why I did it. Should my sons be silly enough the have unprotected sex and contract something it won't be the worst it could be unless they go untreated.
You have to educate your children (at an appropriate time) about STD's and HIV. My children know at the age they are now, not to touch anyone's blood, feces, urine, or vomit. I have told them the way that HIV is contracted and so they know. But to be as petty as to think that circ has anything to do with HIV is sad. I am in the U.S. and I am amazed with some things my fellow American people say. They make the rest of us look like idiots at times.
BTW: the cost for circ is $250 out of pocket to have it done
To be honest, hun, it doesn't make enough of a difference to justify circing.
I see it like this - having breasts puts you at a risk of breast cancer. Having ovaries puts you at a risk of ovarian cancer. Burst and/or infected appendixes are very common - YET, we don't amputate perfectly healthy breast buds, ovaries and appendixes at birth, do we?
Do you see what I mean, hun? Also, the study done about HIV was incorrectly done and NOT relevant to the Western world. There is information about it on my little man's website.
It IS cosmetic, which makes me sad, because
A) I much prefer natural penis'. It's sad how a circed penis looks.
B) If you were to give your child a tattoo or boob job, even with pain relief, you'd be locked up.
C) Why the HELL do parents care what their son's penis looks like?

You know, on the religion front, do you know that people have, as usual, twisted scripture to suit their needs? I have links on this if you're interested.
The foreskin also has an important function in sex. This is a medical fact, and I can also vouch for it. Once, when OH and I were
