There’s a Netflix documentary about circumcision, and here’s a quick thread for anyone who wants to know my perspective as a male medical student

It’s a very important thing in the African tradition, especially in the Xhosa community, for one to be considered a man one needs to go through the process. It’s deeper than health and hygiene

I tried to stay away from including cultural reasons on purpose. The point of my thread was to help people who don’t know the medical facts better understand them. Jewish and African culture is its own thing that I can’t really comment on for my lack of experience.
