Religious cult nonsense is the typical reason.
philycheeze@sh.itjust.works 11 months ago
And then it got so popular they decided it would be weird to stop 🙄

Look up “John Harvey Kellogg circumcision”. A lot of the US obsession with cutting up baby penisses is because of him and his obsession with preventing boys from masturbating.
jali67@lemmy.zip 11 months ago
And unfortunately, many Americans don’t ever think or question anything. It just remained this way.

Wasn’t that why he invented corn flakes too?

On Wikipedia, his supposed instigation and popularization of circumcision is listed as a common misconception. It still looks like he supported the practice at some point though
chunes@lemmy.world 11 months ago
They sell the foreskins.
Snowclone@lemmy.world 11 months ago
And you have to pay to have it removed!
Darukhnarn@feddit.org 11 months ago
I think it used to be about preventing masturbation?
prole@lemmy.blahaj.zone 11 months ago
Lol you’d think they would have figured out pretty quick that it didn’t work
Snowclone@lemmy.world 11 months ago
At this point it’s mostly just to match the dad.

Also intersex kids. Obviously their bodies aren’t sacred. Only binary cis people.
Jake_Farm@sopuli.xyz 11 months ago
I thought only medically necessary surgeries are done?
cassandrafatigue@lemmy.dbzer0.com 11 months ago
Medically necessary to the doctor or parents’ idea of binary gender. Yes.
yuri@pawb.social 11 months ago
that would make sense, right?
cassandrafatigue@lemmy.dbzer0.com 11 months ago
Seriously. Why would you think that?
glorkon@lemmy.world 11 months ago
I suspect circumcision is a devious, elaborate conspiracy by the lotion industry.
ayyy@sh.itjust.works 11 months ago
Dude, grow up and use lube like an adult instead of hurting yourself.
glorkon@lemmy.world 11 months ago
I don’t have to use anything cause I live in a civilized place where parents don’t mutilate their children.
rapchee@lemmy.world 11 months ago
oooooh the lube is for the helmet
i never understood the need for lube when jerking it in the states, now it makes sense

I’ve heard an american nurse’s perspective who’s had to clean uncircumsized children. What I gather is thar americans are so generally unhygenic and neglectful that it’s extremely common for parents to bring in children for cleaning when things go wrong. She thinks circumscion is a medically sound option.
The american government thinks circumcision is a cost effective preventive measure, which makes sense if you’ve seen the price of healthcare. The rest of the world generally agrees that this practice isn’t super effective, and it’s primarily fueled by judaism and islam or aesthetic.
I’ll spare the horror stories and scary diagrams for my fellow man. I’m against circumcision. Have you seen what it looks lile after surgery and how much pain the baby is in? The diaper hurts them.
We don’t complain about having to clean baby girls. Not to mention the risk for irreversable damage that can reduce pleasure or be painful for life.
I think consenting individuals should participate in the anatomy of their body and not have that choice taken away by religious/lazy parents.
SoftestSapphic@lemmy.world 11 months ago
The idea that baby boys are hard to clean and the healthcare excuse are both propaganda created by Christian fundamentalist groups.

Wait til you hear about intersex babies.

Uncircumcised dicks look weird AF.
Stamets@lemmy.dbzer0.com 11 months ago
Yeah the natural thing is the thing that looks weird. Not random genital mutilation of infants. Totally.
DarkAri@lemmy.blahaj.zone 11 months ago
Maybe but unless you live in one of those countries where it’s normal, you should do what’s right for your kid so they feel normal.
Snowpix@lemmy.ca 11 months ago
Only because circumcised dicks are normalized by how common infant genital mutilation is.
Atomic@sh.itjust.works 11 months ago
It is what happens when you live in a country where the only type of sexual education is watching porn.
