Call in sick to work, throw the kids in the car, and hold a barbecue, a block party, or an impromptu bris: March is officially now Circumcision Awareness Month!
Love 'em? Hate 'em? Doesn't matter! As long as you are aware that circumcisions exist!
I'd just like to take a moment to share with you my personal story... I hope that it will inspire you and encourage you to raise awareness of this safe, routine medical procedure in your own community:
If you were to say the words "foreskin" or "circumcision" to me 5 days ago, my first reaction would have been "What?!" closely followed by a confident and resonating,"Eeeeeeeeeewwww...."
But things change in 5 days.
I mean I still think it's quite gross, but I am proud to say that as of today the "Eeeeewwww" officially comes before the "What?!"
Because things are different now.... now that I'm aware.
Thanks to Austria's selfless activism for an often overlooked cause, I now know that circumcisions are more than the stuff of legend... they really do exist. No lie.
It's not like I CARE or anything... but I feel so blessed and grateful to no longer be in the dark on the issue.
Thanks Austria!
Hopefully you all feel a bit more enlightened. So have a great day and remember,
Circumcision: It's a Cut Below the Rest
