Circumcision
Little Joey and Little Danny, both aged 5, are walking home from school.
Danny says "I won't be going to school tomorrow."
"Why not?" asks Joey.
"I have to go to the hospital," says Danny woefully.
"That's awful," says Joey. "Why do you have to go there? Are you sick?"
Danny shakes his head and replies, "I have to have a circumcision."
Joey stops dead in his tracks, an expression of complete horror across his face, "That's Horrible!" he cries, "Why, I had that done when I was born, and I couldn't walk for MONTHS!!"
割礼
二人の5歳児、リトルジョーイとリトルダニーは学校から歩いて帰る途中です。ダニーが言います。「明日学校には行かないんだ。」
「なんで？」とジョーイが聞きます。
「病院に行かなくちゃならないんだ。」とダニーは情けない声で言います。
「そりゃ大変だ。なんで病院に行かなくちゃいけないの？病気なの？とジョーイが言います。
ダニーは首を振ると答えます。「割礼をしに行かなくちゃいけないんだ。」
ジョーイは突然立ち止まると、恐れおののいた表情を顔一杯に浮かべると、叫ぶ。「そりゃひどいや！だって、生まれた時に僕は割礼を受けたけど、その後何ヶ月も歩けなかったんだよ！！」
