[quote=Anonymous]Let's take a look at some actual research in peer reviewed journals, shall we? You know, instead of linking to news articles. Here's one to get started (someone else posted this on the other thread): From Pediatrics, the Journal of the AAP. "only 1 of the arguments put forward by the American Academy of Pediatrics has some theoretical relevance in relation to infant male circumcision; namely, the possible protection against urinary tract infections in infant boys, which can easily be treated with antibiotics without tissue loss. The other claimed health benefits, including protection against HIV/AIDS, genital herpes, genital warts, and penile cancer, are questionable, weak, and likely to have little public health relevance in a Western context, and they do not represent compelling reasons for surgery before boys are old enough to decide for themselves." http://pediatrics.aappublications.org/content/earl.../03/12/peds.2012-2896.abstract [/quote]
