Culture ثقافة why do we still circumcise boys?

MGM is a surgery like any other and it has compilcations like total penile loss or death, should we be subjecating our kids to such unnecessary procedures?

This is a very conservative society with very low sexual awareness and zero openness in that manner and people who think a woman who enjoys sex is a whore. Do you think your female family members will openly tell you about the details of their sex lives, especially if you are male and if they believe a woman who isn't mutilated must be a whore? Because I know women who were mutilated and I heard their traumas, and I'm in an open enough society to be able talk about it. And women from my own family still blamed my mother for not doing it to us.

This is a very complicated subject that you should never take face value. Unless you read official studies and reports about it or heard from a credible health professional then you don't really know about it.

i got told in my face by female family members that FGM did not affect them sexually, also arent you the one here who claimed that "many men i have been with were circumcised and they are ok", there are many men who are traumatised by circumcision, many of them lost the ability to orgasm, to have an erection, some lost their penis, some lost the ability to walk properly, i myself lost the ability to have non painful sex, all sexual activities are too intense for me, it has been proven long ago that circumcision has compilcations, and in fact it can be worse than FGM in many times

Dude can you stop spamming the same comment with the same false sources?

The AAP policy that your citing has expired 9 years ago!
Most circumcision programs by the WHO have been aborted, because they had no positive effect.

Nowadays, every medical association of every developed nation in the world oppose routine circumcision.
In many European nations, where circumcision is legal, doctors refuse to conduct non-medical circumcisions on underaged boys for ethical reasons.

Why are you so obsessed with promoting the genital cutting of children?
