And it’s been the default here in the US, historically and culturally (for puritanical reasons originally, and now because it’s “the norm”). Absolutely barbaric practice. “Yes, please mutilate my newborn baby because *checks notes* having a foreskin is unhygienic and looks weird compared to what I’m used to seeing in porn.”
I can’t believe circumcision is still practiced in some parts of the world.

“My parents mutilated me so I’ll do the same to my newborn child because tradition”
It’s brutal. I’m very lucky I wasn’t. Both my younger half brothers are.
My BIL had his son circumcized. When I asked him why (he’s not at all religious) he couldn’t come up with a reason.
Absolutely insane. I hope he doesn’t own a weapon.
Funny you mention that
Ya-huh?
