Yet another circumcision horror story.

A Houston couple argued over whether to have their 5-week-old infant
circumcised the day before his mother cut off the boy's penis and
testicles, leaving a perfectly square wound and a childhood of
reconstructive surgeries, prosecutors told a jury Monday.

“Now he's more than circumcised,” Assistant District Attorney Denise
Oncken said.

Oncken said Katherine Nadal, 28, argued for the circumcision after
spending the afternoon injecting cocaine. Camden Gothia, 38, testified
that he argued against it because of the pain it appears to cause.

Earlier Monday, prosecutors told jurors that Nadal completely severed
the baby's genitals on March 13, 2007, then dispassionately watched
neighbors, paramedics and surgeons work to save the boy's life. None
of the child's parts was recovered.

Nadal is charged with injury to a child, causing serious bodily
injury, a first-degree felony. If convicted, she faces a maximum
sentence of life in prison. She remains in jail in lieu of $75,000
bail.

What sort of parent looks down at their new-born baby boy's penis,
doesn't like what they see, and decides to have cosmetic surgery
performed on it?

Supporters of circumcision can only come up with two arguments to
support their fetish:

1. they don't like the look of an uncircumcised penis;

2. the uncircumcised penis smells and the circumcised penis doesn't,
therefore circumcised men don't need to shower as often as
uncircumcised men.

These are two arguments that the majority of men either disagree with
or are things they happily live with.

Waits for the newsgroup clown to say "This is not related to
circumcision per se."
