Scanning through my news this morning I caught this article in the NYTimes about circumcision. Turns out, public health officials in the US (people at the CDC) are considering making a recommendation that baby boys and even high risk adults get circumcised to reduce their risk of contracting AIDS. I’m likely just using this as a bit of self-justification for having Toren circumcised, but I thought it might be of interest to others considering this issue.
