Another Circumcision thread

[Aegon]

I was born in Brooklyn and grew up on Long Island. In other words, I was surrounded by Jews. The fact that most men in the area are cut, combined with the medical benefits*, it seemed like an easy decision for my parents to make. And I have yet to feel upset about it.

*I assume you know the benefits already so I won't bother getting into them. And yes, I understand that the benefits may not be enough to warrant the surgery on their own, but in combination with the cultural norms of the area I was born, the decision made perfect sense.

I know the benefits to a clean dick, that you simply assume benefits is, again, at least potentially an artifact of your not giving a shit, swimming within the cultural trends, and imagining that there must be some reason that we do it when that';s not at all why it was or is done.....and accepting those ad hoc rationalizations and equivocations -as- reasons for doing it because they serve the cultural trend and your indifference.

We all do this, about something.  Some of us about many somethings.

So you're going to tell me that there can never be complications that arise with foreskin? Phimosis isn't a thing? Paraphimosis? I'm not "assuming" there are benefits to circumcision, I know there are. I "assumed" you knew them. Are they enough to warrant the operation by themselves? Up to the parent but probably not.
