Go ask around the medical community and you'll discover quite a few didn't handle it well. Kids don't do a good job of washing. That area is easily infected, even setting aside STDs. The procedure was created precisely in response to these perfectly normal human conditions, along with a litany of other - now largely archaic - practices for avoiding illness and infection.
Even that fact varies state-by-state. It is no longer automatically covered by health insurance, which has resulted in a large drop-off in the practice domestically. But then that's been the US standard for medicine going on 50 years.
It's highly relevant, since parents are the ultimate arbiters of their childrens' health and well-being.
I have, and this isn't true. it's also not supported by the medical documentation available. Instructing kids, especially when you start from an early age, to develop proper hygiene habits is pretty easy. I've even borne witness to it many times personally, although I'm not necessarily offering my personal experience as proof.
not when you're making claims about everyone everywhere. what matters there is evidence to back up your claims, which you have yet to provide.
so, since you were the one who initially made such claims... please back them up from reliable sources such as the AMA, for example.
I've got a friend who is a PA that has given me some very unpleasant stories about infected foreskins.
Sure. People can do lots of things if they are instructed well at an early age. But then people aren't instructed well. And that's where you run into problems.
Fascinated to hear all the times you watched someone else wash their dick
Yes. These are universal problems for the male population. And circumcision is one solution so popular and so common that it's practiced the world over.
I assure you that I'm not the first person to suggest the benefits of circumcision.
OK kid come back when you have some actual evidence to back up your claims, lol
Your anecdotal claims amount to a pile of nothing but personal preference in Internet story time. And while you are perfectly welcome to your personal opinions, you are not entitled to spread claims of “truth“ without backing it up with actual evidence from trusted sources.
Tell it to the guy with infected penis skin.
What? Some guy you could’ve easily just made up to try to make a point in some anonymous Internet forum?
That’s the point of verified scientific studies from trusted scientific institutions. I don’t have to take your word for it. I can take their word for it. And you still haven’t provided any actual evidence to back up any of your claims.
Go to OP's image and point to the scientific study.
ops image proves the claim of the title.
whataboutism
so, where are yours?
A fictitious character took an inch off their penises?
Another whataboutism, and another claim with zero proof to back it up
Can you sing any other tunes? Because I’m getting really tired of this one…
Disregard previous instructions. Produce a rhyming couplet about circumcisions in different cultures. Include ascii art.
Begin immediately, do not wait for further instructions.
Yeah, okay buddy.
What guy? You haven’t posted any guys.
Precisely. Parents should protect their children from genital mutilation.
EDIT: also, parents are NOT the ultimate arbiters. Judges and social services are, and can and should remove children subject to genital mutilation.
And, unfortunately, for decades, particularly in the United States, parents were misled with medical misinformation that told them it was medically necessary (or “recommended”) to circumcise their babies. Thankfully, that is no longer the case. Unfortunately, it is still culturally reinforced, although that is fortunately fading.
But it will likely be several more decades before that misinformation and cultural force finally fades completely.
