"almost exclusively Islamic." huh? newborn circumcision is exclusively jewish (& USA); as barbaric as Islamic circumcision is, it's not so barbaric as the newborn version

Infant circumcision yes, but circumcision in general is globally 70% Islamic. Also honestly there's different issues with circumcision at birth and at 7 years old, neither one is properly consenting, but the 7 year old will remember. And yes I know that doesn't excuse infant >>

I don't really want to argue it, but I will disagree on that, you're referring to the neruological changes that are a response to high pain and stress, which honestly is more connected to the general lack of anaestitic than the operative trauma. Infant circumcision does not >>

2> cause PTSD however, only childhood circumcision causes that so again, hard to say which is actually worse.

@circmovie cites a study documenting PTSD from infant circumcision; ADHD is definitely implicated with early PTSD

There was only one study into PTSD and circumcision that I know of, and it was on childhood circumcisions, not infant, conscious memories, suppressed or otherwise, need to exist for there to be PTSD.
