    I have no problem with circumcision if it’s a medical necessity—or if a man chooses that for himself later—but a guy just told me he circumcised his son because it reduces the spread of STDs. Even if that’s true, why would you make choices about his sex life while he’s a newborn?

        By that logic he should have his appendix, tonsils and adenoids removed at birth.

        You say that but cutters are so rabid they'll probably suggest it. Actually, they have. The tonsil scare in the 80s and 90s had doctors routinely removing tonsils from children for unrelated diseases. And they probably don't even know the real purpose of the appendix 😂

        David, we need a CIRCUMCISION BAN, PUNISHMENT FOR THE PERPETRATORS, and MASSIVE government funding for tissue regeneration to regenerate our foreskins and make our bodies whole again! Watch my channel trailer in my Twitter bio where I explain how we might make this happen!!!

        Actually, circumcision is not an effective way to protect anyone from STD’s. There are studies showing higher rates of STD and especially Gonorrhea for circumcised men. It’s known the cut men spread STI’s at higher rates than intact men. Condoms not cutting.

        What if I said I circumcised my daughter because it prevents #HIV? Would invoking a feigned interest in public health make me less of a jerk? Trivia: US researchers found a lower incidence of HIV in women who were #FGM. No “mass campaigns” for it tho. #i2 http://blog.practicalethics.ox.ac.uk/2017/08/does-female-genital-mutilation-have-health-benefits-the-problem-with-medicalizing-morality/ …

        https://www.hindawi.com/archive/2013/109846/ … "Langerhans cells are the first line of mucosal defense. Their presence in the mucosal portion of the prepuce may explain why the overall incidence and prevalence of STIs is lower in intact men." Claims of STD prevention are lies.

        Cutting a newborn to prevent STDs?

        Impossible. A newborn is incapable of performing sex acts, which makes it sound more like kiddy-diddling than a legitimate concern. The pedoes must be afraid of that kid's rash, but they're probably psychotic anyways.

        His claim about STD reduction is incorrect. Circumcision is just child abuse.

        Honestly the STD claim is based on questionable science, those who back female circumcision make the same claim, that it protects against STDs.

        That's exactly what he said. Are Jews going to stop practicing brit milah and claim medical disorders in their sons' penises after circumcision is banned? No, probably not.

        Circumcision is about as medically necessary as removing earlobes
