I didn't realise how problematic it must be to be really upset about FGM but not about male circumcision. :(

It's barbaric and unnecessary and it's really disgusting that people shame men who have not been mutilated.
-
I think the shaming of either types of penises is really stupid, especially since the male in the situation didn't choose either as a child. What say you about the benefits of male circumcision? Is it worth the mutilation?
-
There's no medical benefits and it can actually make the penis less sensitive. The appearance of the penis is not worth mutilating a baby. It's bizarre and primitive I don't rate it.
-
There are health benefits. Check the thread. I definitely know it does reduce sensitivity, that's admittedly a terrible downside as well as the possible trauma of executing the circumcision (depending on age, I'd say).

Is curious that no other healthy part is ever removed because some day there may be some issue. This is clearly aimed to alter the genitalia, due personal preference and / or religious beliefs.

Honestly don’t really care, I can’t feel the pain now so and I’m glad I was circumcised after learning about the health benefit
-
Oh what are the health benefits ? I think what I'm worried about is that little boys that have to get it done as children. I don't know if it's really necessary beyond making a pretty penis.
-
Thank you sharing!!! I'm going to read up on it better

-
the question is, how common are those things in places where no males are circumcised? the answer is extremely rare. And they are solvable without cutting off healthy, functioning parts of babies.

Adult circumcision is fine, but infant circumcision is completely barbaric. I would never do that to my child because it's not my body and therefore not my choice to make. I personally know how terrible it feels to be forcefully circumcised when it's something you don't want.

Tbh I feel like if you feel strongly about not circumcising your child that’s ok as long as you teach proper hygiene etc. because if not increased risk of UTIs, STIs and also even penile cancers. Also as men are the main people who spread HPV
-
Cause they aren’t as frequently vaccinated as girls are for HPV this can increase a woman’s risk for cervical cancer as it will be more likely to contract in these cases. Also something called phimosis can happen in boys this is when the foreskin contracts
-
Thanks for going into such details!! Yess. This is great.

No worries always glad to share information

Foreskin is not a birth defect. Circumcision is evil.

I think circ is unnecessary and harmful to the baby's developing brain. Just because you don't remember the pain doesn't mean the trauma did not and does not affect the way you experience the world.
