I did a search on infant circumcision, did not find one at this site, and as such would like to take up this topic. In short, I would like to know why different parents have chosen to either circumcise or not circumcise their son’s.

This is a topic I have moved on both sides of the fence and have never felt completely sure about. At one time I was against it, at another time for it, and know sit in the middle.
I am not circumcised, yet my wife and I chose to have our son’s become circumcised. There seems to be pro’s and con’s on both sides. For example, the website (www.mothersagainstcirc.o rg) provide scientific reports on why circumcion should not be practiced, including credible research on that sexual activity with a non-circumcised man is better because a more sensitive penis creates more sensitive men who do not need to be as aggressive and self-centered in bed. Recently, Time magazine even had a feature on re-thinking circumcision (Nov 2, 2007). On the other side, www.circinfo.net/ is another website that references scientific studies on why circumcision is better, including credible research on that sexual activity with a circumcised man is better because a less sensitive penis creates longer durations of erections and sexual activity. The there is the entire issue of how the Bible in interpreted on this issue and cleanness. 

In essence, I would like to hear thoughts on this and hopefully create some type of respectful and non-perverted dialogue on this subject.

My son was circumcised as a small boy for medical reasons. I would never have had him circumcised otherwise. I cant see the point of carrying our a medical procedure on a baby or child unless it is medically nessessary.

The Jews were required to do it but Christians arent. My hubbies mum had him circumcised at birth but he has no idea why and neither do I.

Since Paul wrote, "Circumcision availeth nothing in the Lord" we decided it was unnecessary. Being unnecessary, we didn't do it.

When I gave birth to my son, I chose not to get it done. I couldn't make him go through this procedure and then watch him suffer more than he already was...if Gabriel had survived, he would have been in need of at least a dozen operations...I couldn't see the purpose or necessity of also making him have a circumcision...

Trust me when I say he will do fine with a circumcision.

How much do they cost?  Do you just give the guy a tip?

That might almost be impossible to determine...at least from a male standpoint...because each only knows "one feeling/experience" depending on if they are or are not circumsized. A woman could tell you if there is a difference though.
