Jew, Muslim or not - let boy children have their genitals at peace
There is no similarity between circumcision of boys and being a Jew. Jewish identity is based on Jewish descent through the mother.
I'm a Jew. Born of two Jewish parents and circumcised as an infant. I am also in favor of the citizen's proposal to introduce a minimum age for circumcision. I sincerely hope that it will be implemented in some form. And I'm not leaving Denmark for that reason, even though I'm Jewish and circumcised.
