The evidence for this is overwhelming and the World Health Organization now officially endorses circumcision as an STD prevention tool, so there are really good medical reasons to get cut. As far as women’s preferences, this varies regionally with studies showing that in the US ~80% of women prefer cut men; in Europe the preference would be different. As far as PE, there will be some differences (I can imagine that hanging would be more difficult for uncut men), but I can’t see how it would affect one’s potential for overall growth.
This is a brutal lie. Terrible myths. Every single one. There is no evidence for this whatsoever. Not a shred.
Medical (as in not religious) was invented in the 1800s to prevent jacking off. Nothing more, nothing less. It didn’t work to well, and at the time they even advocated cutting part of the head off. The amount of misinformation on this issue is shocking.
Not one medical organization (aside from the WHO, but not any countries, which have all done more studies) in the world recommends circumcision. Not even in the US.
Cutting off the foreskin to prevent infection is the exact same as cutting of the eyelid to prevent infection. They serve similar purposes and chances of infection.
Except your junk is cleaner than your eye. I lot cleaner.
Circumcising anybody with there permission is most definitely assault and has been known to kill or completely remove the penis. It is a brutal, terrible practice.
US is the only country in the world where it is the preference, and funnily enough it’s the only country with a circumcision rate of over 30%. And even that has dropped to less than 40% in recent years as education has grown.
