Would you circumsice your boys?( God forbid discussing circumcision for girls like in old Egypt.) Should it be allowed for boys? They can decide for themselves when they turn 18! Please don't do this to your kids. Is this common in non Abrahamic religions as well? My kids pediatrician is pushing for it and I pushed back. Hell no thanks!
Weekend blind is early this week.
What state are you in? We were told by doctor it is unnecessary so opted out - we’re not religious. I think it is becoming less common in USA.
I hope so.
The fact that American born men led the world to porn, liberalism in sex and seek sexual pleasure openly should tell you that circumcision doesn’t deprive one of anything. You’re probably not and therefore don’t want the child to be. It doesn’t make the foreskin more or less special or potent.
Why wouldn’t you want to be circumcised lol
First research to understand please then come back and answer it for yourself.
First google result says it has health benefits. Research done.
Different cultures have different norms and can be surprising. I spent some time amongst a culture where it’s customary for 15 year old boys to undergo public circumcision with all the other boys. It’s like a rite of passage to becoming a man, and flinching is considered a dishonor. This is as engrained in them as not eating beef is to Hindus. They also, sadly, practice FGM. However, this has been their culture for centuries and it’s not our place to tell them to change. That comes from within. I’ll add that my parents had me circumcised as a baby and I’m thankful they did. Every time I got busy with a new girl they seemed relieved that I was, and I’ve never had to question if I should do it as an adult.
Kids pediatrician only wants your money. Why would you do circumcision if you’re not religious? wtf….
Curious, how does curmcusion help a boy physically?
Exactly. They will most likely not even have sex to worry about STDs.
Saying circumcision has health benefits is science claiming to be smarter than nature. That science which still cant make up its mind if cue tips are good or not. Breast milk vs powder milk etc. I bet the funding for circumcision research study came from some abrahamic faith missionary. No thanks for me and my progeny.
Thanks for sharing !
ChatGPT4 took a wishy washy approach equally in favor of both to respect Jewish and Muslim religions and various cultures. So I told it “Take a more rigid stance in favor of one, adamantly” “Certainly! Let's adopt a strong stance in favor of not circumcising. Choosing not to circumcise is the best course of action from both a medical and ethical standpoint. Medically, the foreskin is a natural part of the human anatomy that plays a crucial role in the sensory and protective functions of the penis. It protects the glans against external irritants and infections and preserves its sensitivity. Many of the medical benefits historically attributed to circumcision, such as reduced risks of urinary tract infections and sexually transmitted infections, can be equally achieved through proper hygiene and safe sexual practices without the need for an irreversible surgical procedure. Ethically, not circumcising respects the bodily autonomy and rights of the child to make decisions about their own body when they are capable of informed consent. Performing a permanent alteration to a child's body without their consent, especially when medically unnecessary, is a violation of their human rights. The decision to circumcise should be left to the individual when they are old enough to weigh the cultural, religious, and personal significance of the procedure against the potential risks and benefits. Therefore, not circumcising is the more cautious, respectful, and rights-based approach, ensuring that no unnecessary harm or ethical breaches are committed.”
Men are less likely to have UTIs than women anyways by nature. Hence worrying about UTIs so much to the point of cutting skin is not a compelling point.
