      I think it doesn't really happen in Ireland except for medical reasons, though I think they changed guidelines around religious circumcision after someone died and doctors do those too now.

      America is fairly unique. There are actually very interesting reasons why it’s common here and not most other countries. Believe it or not it has a lot to do with the guy who created Raisin Bran cereal and bogus health concerns related to teenage masturbation.

      I'm not positive on the numbers, but believe around 30%of Canadian neonates are still circumcised. Someone please correct me if this is way off.

      We are closer to 70-80%, but it’s much higher or lower in some regions. At my hospital virtually 100% are circumcised.

      It’s gradually declining. Very uncommon in some populations. In Houston at country hospital I did like 2 a month because most patients were from Mexico.

      I don’t have actual stats, but I can say newborn circumcision is rare in NZ. Approx 10% In 14years at my General Practice I’ve only seen one circumcised baby 👶🏻 and I asked the parents why they chose to.”To look like his Dad”. WTF? “To look different from all his friends”, then?

      This has been my only experience and I know sometimes there are medical and religious reasons. But seeing his tiny penis all raw and weepy and, in his case quite pointlessly mutilated, was really disturbing 😢

      I think “mutilated” isn’t a fair description. Also “raw”. The exposed tissue is mucous membrane and that’s the color, just like the inside of your cheek.

      Guess I’m getting a little emotive! It was maybe 2 days post Circumcision & parents brought baby in for me to check “it’s ok”. I’d nothing to compare it with, having never seen one before. Part weepy, part scabby. Frankly it did upset me inside that this baby had been wounded.

          I completely understand this sentiment and this is a good space for you to share your feelings. Obviously we don't use emotion when discussing this with parents.

          I’m always caring & professional with all my patients. Those parents had (& still have) no idea about my personal feelings towards their decision. Likewise my non vaccinating parents are treated with care and respect, despite my disagreeing with their views. Twitter’s my outlet

          I agree they can look rough sometimes, but that doesn’t necessarily equate to discomfort. I’m not sure what you mean by “scabby”. Perhaps silver nitrate was applied to stop a bit of oozing. That leaves a black residue. They typically just dry and form a coat of new epithelium.

          It is mutilation. The foreskin is fused to the glans upon birth for a few, or many years into childhood and has to be probed apart and essentially skinned off. What’s left is true raw, bleeding wound at both the cut site and the unnaturally exposed head.. 😞
