At a recent bris, the baby's grandfather told me a joke:
What blessing does a girl say at a bris? Shelo Asani BOY!
[Translation - "For not having made me a boy." The joke is because there are three blessings that are said in the morning, that begin with the phrase "shelo asani" - for not having made me "x" - and one of them is "Shelo Asani GOY"]
Anyway, while not specifically related to the actual bris and process the baby goes through, I was inspired to find a new explanation for these three blessings, with Bris Milah being an ingredient to my novel interpretation.
It is spelled out in much detail in this post in my other blog.
Enjoy!
