Which is why I'm a bit bothered by the US rates, considering these are not because of religious reasons, simply for aesthetics, which we would never do to a girls genitals, but yet we do it for boys. |
I'm wondering if that decreasing number doesn't have anything to do with the cost of the procedure now. I have friends who are having kids and when asked the question they first question they ask back is "how much does it cost now?"
