Hi. That's a myth.
That may be true, but that was NOT the reason Hebrews first started that practice. They had no clue what bacteria or viruses were back then. When it started it was merely a religious issue.
And though doctors do it as a default to boys, if you train the parents and then when the kid is old enough, most males who keep their forskint can keep themselves disease free.
Which brings up the concept of a perfect god and the issue of design. Why the fuck would an all powerful god create a baby with a petri dish for disease on their prick? And then tell adults, not for medical reasons, but for a blood cult promise to kiss his ass, to inflict pain on the innocent baby for something he didn't have to put there in the first place.
