Monday Teeny Poll
Monday, June 13th, 2011By Glinda
Last week I asked what you thought about the attempt to make circumcising infant males illegal, and a fairly overwhelming majority of 86% felt that it was an issue that should not be legislated. Only 10% felt that it should be made illegal, and I have to admit that I side with the majority on this. I know there is the argument that it is an unnecessary surgical procedure performed on an infant without their consent (which is sort of par for the course for infants) but it is also a religious/cultural thing for many, and I personally don’t feel comfortable stepping over that line and suddenly making an important religious ritual illegal. Just my two cents.
Today I RSVP’d for a baby shower for someone I don’t know that well. Her mother is a good friend of my MIL’s and she is a sweet person, I just feel a teensy bit awkward because the last time I saw them was my wedding, almost ten years ago. However, obligations are obligations.
