>Personally, if this procedure were to result in a shorter foreskin, I wouldn't object at all to a son getting it.
Why is that particularly good though?
All kind of mods should be the decision of the owner.>Also, perhaps the big advantage of that procedure is to ensure that your son has fully retractable foreskin before he gives up diapers and you start to troilet train him. This way, he will learn to retract his foreskin to urinate right from the start and you won't have to change his habits later on.
"Urinate right"? How is urinating with retracted foreskin "right"?
>Proper education of the boy is critical to avoiding preputial problems later on. And if this procedure does result in a shorter foreskin, it will also reduce incidence of foreskin problems later on and thus yield similar results to a partial circumcision.
Phimosis can be avoided with proper non prudistic education.
