Is this true??? Yikes!
Baby is strapped down in an uncomfortable spread eagle position while the surgeon scrubs
*Without anesthesia, the surgeon grasps the overhanging foreskin with a pair of hemostats and opens up the overhanging foreskin
*Still without anesthesia, the foreskin is forcibly torn away from the glans (breaking up the adhesions that make it stick like glue)
*The foreskin is crushed at the point where it is to be cut (either by tying on a plastibell or clamping the Gomco upon it
*The foreskin is cut away in a circular fashion (hence the name "circumcision"...a "circumferencial incision").
*The foreskin is either discarded or sold to cosmetic companies for use in makeup and face cream
I dont know if I would do if I were a mommy to a boy. What if he was mad at me that I didnt have the procedure done when he was a baby? At the same time ouch!
