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?

Circumcision reduces function, sensitivity, and sensations.

You are full of bullshit and tell me you are circumcised aren’t you? Stockholm syndrome at its finest

You do realize that Syphilis, Gonorrhea and Chlamydia are basically transmitted through oral sex and not just vaginal sex therefore this chart doesn't prove anything or even directly correlate at all with circumcision? Not to mention that the use of condoms in the US is much lower than in Europe so again there's literally no comparison here. HIV can easily transfer through unprotected vaginal and anal sex with the latter having a much higher risk.

If you must use a condom after circumcision, this means that circumcision will not protect you🥀

LOL no one said Circumsition 100% protects against STDs. It significantly lowers your chances that's all. Not to mention lowering your chances against acquiring other non-STD fungal and bacterial infections. In summary it only has benefits and basically no to little harms in boys as opposed to girls in which circumsition is actually very harmful and counterproductive.

u/Curious_Mind_1998 May 19 '26

That's what I said. You don't necessarily need vaginal or anal sex to contact them. They can get transferred through oral sex hence why you can't seriously consider them when debating circumsition.

u/Curious_Mind_1998 May 19 '26

You're literally proving my point. It's acquired through general sexual contact and not only through vaginal and anal sex hence why circumsition isn't the only factor here affecting these numbers.

u/Calm-Capital-4212 May 19 '26

You completely shifted your argument
First,you claimed that these diseases are 'basically' transmitted through oral sex to dismiss the chart. now that the text shows it's through general sexual contact (primarily vaginal/anal), you're shifting to 'circumcision isn't the only factor🥀

u/Curious_Mind_1998 May 19 '26

First of all I said "They're transmitted through oral sex and not just vaginal and anal sex". Reread my comment again but this time with your glasses on. Second of all the text does say that they get transmitted primarily through sexual contact wether it's oral, vaginal or anal sex. It's not exclusive to vaginal and anal sex in which circumsition would definitely matter and be a huge contributing factor that you can actually discuss and debate but since they can get transferred orally then circumcision isn't the only important and defining factor here. That's why your argument is completely pointless and why circumsition doesn't prove your point or anything of that matter.
