I hope you had enough common sense to tell your insecure boyfriend that your son's dick is his--not yours, not your BF's.
If your BF thinks his silly sexual preference should override the rights of your son--he is not worth having as a life partner--prejudice against gays is the same as prejudice against the normal penis--so avoid hypocrisy.. defend all rights of all people.
While saying that Dan shouldn't have Terry as a life partner is a bit harsh IMO, I do think you're spot on when you say that it's this childs penis, not that of anyone else.
To be completely honest here: I think the blowjob argument was bullshit, because the kid could grow up and decide to get circumcised THEN, when he's an adult. It's not like the foreskin turns to stone at age 3 and then there is no more turning back.
You know when there's no turning back? When that foreskin was removed without the childs consent.
I just get a very visceral reaction to altering a part of a childs body without medical nescesity. Especially considering that all the arguments put forward for male GM are pretty much if not entirely IDENTICAL to the arguments for FEMALE GM in tribal cultures.

It's his dick. That's what I keep coming back to.
