You sound ridiculously ignorant. Like the kind of person who would think black ppl are dirty because their skin is dark. Ew!

It IS less clean, that’s not debatable. Uncircumcised penises are more prone to fungus infections STD etc bc harder to keep clean. That’s where the tradition comes from!

Yes, but only because the men were in a war zone! Tonsils can be prone to infection, too, but we no longer routinely remove them.

This is true. There is no reason to circumcise now. Cosmetic and culture. A cruel thing to do to a baby.

How is it cruel? Anesthesia is used. I don't care if you do it or not, but fail to see how it can be described as cruel.

My husband is not circumcised, white upper middle class family so we decided against it. Of course child will be learning good hygiene from dad. And I don’t care about what others do. But to the women insulting men who are not circumcised, you’re all disgusting people (more so than the penises you claim to hate).

+2. Genital mutilation is genital mutilation. It's just a cultural norm here.

You can't simultaneously claim it's NBD for babies -- especially without anesthesia -- and then make a huge deal about how difficult and impossible it is for adult men. Pick a lane.

This!

Exactly! I’m very protective against unnecessary (painful!) medical procedures for my baby.

When that baby grows up to be a man it will be his decision to undergo painful procedures, be it tattoos, piercings or genital mutilation. Why do you feel entitled to make those decisions for your sons?

Because we are his parents.
