Do you know why UK men are rarely circumcized when it's the norm in the U.S?
At some point the UK government decided that circumcision wouldn't be covered by the national health insurance.
And just like that. It went out of fashion.
I'm sure the greedy U.S insurance companies would be more than happy to stop covering that service.
Fight fire with fire.
Get the insurance companies to stop covering it. And we can finally save boys from being mutilated.
Not just UK most of the world is uncircumcised, it's only a thing in Abrahamic religions and USA
Yeah cause mutilating baby genitals is bad. Most people get that.
But also my example was to illustrate how the trend was changed in the UK and perhaps it's a possible way to do the same in the U.S.
Christianity is an abrahamic religion and afaik does not have anything to with this anywhere except the US.
I was mostly referring to Islam and Judaism but it's weird how regressive Christianity is in the US compared to most other developed countries
People is the US are just brain dead "christian" morons
I don’t think Christianity requires circumcising
They do it anyways for sexual control
Nothing requires circumcising
Ouuuu hot take. Never said anything did, but your Christian reference implies that Christianity does.
It may have started that way, but nowadays it's normalized to the point where it's something most people just automatically do. Any harm to the person undergoing this is waved away and rationalized as "it will hurt for just a second and they won't remember it anyway".
After my brother-in-law had his boy, he proudly announced they were taking him to be circumcized. Taken aback, I asked him why - he's one of the most non-religious people I've ever known. I was just met by an empty stare, as if I were the weird one for asking. Sadly, at this point it might be more popular than the essential vaccines which are supposed to be administered at birth.
People is the US are just brain dead ~~"christian"~~ morons
Ok, ftfy
yeah that's not entirely wrong sadly
A kid died in Australia because a doctor botched the circumcision of a toddler and he went septic.
Barbaric cultural practise to do it to children, but I do think it's fine if they medically need it or you are an adult and want it done.
Yeah adults can decide and of course it treats conditions like phimosis which is when the foreskin is super tight.
Watch 'em start trying to do it at home.
Well unlike making abortion illegal, making it so that insurance won't cover it just means you would have to pay for it.
And I'm sure some still will.
But I can't see too many people trying to do it at home.
It would still be profitable. They sell the foreskins for use in cosmetic products.
