Last night I asked my followers (and anyone else who’s interested) about whether they view male circumcision to be a gender issue. First of all, it was really cool to get hear back from people and have a bit of a back-and-forth instead of the usual one-sided experience, which can almost feel a bit like I’m talking at people! I’ll definitely be doing more of this in the future, and I have a several ideas on future topics.
As far as the responses that were received, here’s the tally: six said yes, and two said no. There was one other reply (that isn’t there anymore) that was a bit ambiguous, but could reasonably be counted as a no or a scratch. My own personal perspective is that it is indeed a gender issue, and you scroll down my blog to see some of my recent thoughts on this question.
