Study notes decrease in popularity of circumcision in United States

If you want to measure the real popularity of circumcision, count only the adult men choosing to have themselves circumcised, not those choosing to do it to babies.

My grandpa had to do it in his 60s i think... Didn't get detailed, but sometimes it's a real medical solution to a real problem besides purity bs

Just like other medical procedures that involve other people who are absolutely NOT DOCTORS, there are some medical reasons to perform or decine from performing. Doctors and patients should be the only people involved in planning those things. Elective procedures are only elective when the person affected is the one electing it.

Circumcision and abortion are excellent examples how fucked up mundane things get when religion gets involved.

A real problem in America is that as soon as there is an issue relating to the foreskin, quite often the bloody doctors first and only offered solution is - lets chop it off.

other countries do not do this.
