![The brain of the circumcised infant was permanently changed from the surgery [1008x1580 - 472KB]](https://pic8.co/sh/vAIsgd.jpg){kind=link}
I was cut about 4 days after I was born, I don't remember it.
When my son was born, and they asked me if we were going to circumcise my son, I felt a feeling of dread, I started to sweat, I got a bit dizzy and felt like I wanted to puke. I refused. They told me that doing it now will avoid infections later, and cutting it off will avoid him the embarrassment of having a "weird" looking penis.
I said "NO" and then shut up and stared at them. They said nothing for a few seconds, then shook their head and turned away like I was making a stupid decision.
Fuck them.

You protected your son and the jews have no concept of that action.
You can't let your son out of your sight at all if you make the mistake of having him in a hospital when born or young. One of them will slip him away to do this and brush it off later, and you'll have no legal recourse.
I'm not sure when this happened to you but it may please you that I had the opposite experience. The doctor and nurses seemed to push more towards not getting your kid circumcised, though they didn't speak out about either.
I guess we still have a long way to go since they still aren't allowed to speak out about it but at least they aren't pushing for it.
Edit: To give a time frame, my wife gave birth to our first about 6 years ago.
Almost 16 years for my son, over 40 for me.
Good on you, pops.
You did the right thing. I'm glad my parents didn't fall for these foreskin thieves.
