How's this for a dilemma:
I married a Jewish girl (I am not Jewish), and she has stated that should we have male children, they will have to be circumcised and have a Briss (a sacred rite). By Jewish law, our sons and daughters will be considered Jewish. I am not circumcised and I am against it in principle for many reasons (risk of infections, complications, it is medically unnecessary and traumatic for the child, etc), and definitely do not want it done to any possible sons.
If someone can get me out of this conundrum I will owe you big time. It's just a matter of time before the major blow out argument manifests itself, unless we have daughters. It's almost like riding a lion, at some point I will have (likely) to get off the thing.
