I’m genuinely interested in this because even non-judeo-christian people from my country are circumcising their kids and they’re encouraging me to do so too to my son. Any conclusive research on circumcision? I see conflicting information like it reduces sexual pleasure and also that it’s not really true. That it reduces STD risk for both partners as well and that it reduces UTI risk for female partners.

Let the person decide when they’re an adult. Perpetually washing their wang uncircumcised, or needing to wash their wang less - circumcised, but washing it anyways cause hygeine.

It was absolutely horrible, just like most of my conversations with Finns who have many of the same issues. I honestly don’t know why I bother trying, but I do.

The way my dad told it. When I was removed (tumor baby ftw) the doctor was just about to cut me and my dad stepped in. And told the doctor something along the lines of, “if you cut his dick off I will cut your dick off”

Dad was a 6’4 Vietnam veteran.
