I had no clue what circumcision was, let alone what it entailed. My doctor happened to be a Jewish Capt in the US Army, Capt David B. Isaac. Gorgeous man, but he never explained to me what circumcision was, as far as I can remember. It was just done. Many years later I realized there was a choice. Sorry son.

If even ritual nicks on the clitoral hood are illegal, then removing an extremely densely innervated patch of skin entirely should be illegal as well.

I was just thinking today "What can I be pissed off at my mother about today?"

j/k, I'm not mad at my mother for this - it's just a little slice of my life...
