OK, this is just so inappropriate. This morning I was at a brit mila of a friend (for his child).

I find it so inappropriate that people snap photos and take videos of the brit itself. We're talking zoom shots, close-ups, you know what I mean. And it's always the women that are the taking the photos.

One nearly nudged the Mohel today to set up that perfect frame.

Seriously, how inappropriate is that? What do you even plan to do with the video and the photos? Watch it? Show it to his girlfriends? Play it at the wedding?

Please. Turn the cameras off, or just take pictures of the family - that is just plain wrong.

Oh, and kids don't need front row seats either. The mohel had to also stop - in the middle - when the curious children got to close. Keep them on a leash. Thank God they didn't bump him, he was having enough trouble as it was.

Gee whiz.
