and I debunked those links. So dont bother acting like there are medical reasons. each and every study cited to provide a so called medical reason says it reduces risks by less than 1%.
So again, no medical reason to mutliate our children.
According to Wikipedia, "Trials took place in South Africa, Kenya and Uganda.[22] All three trials were stopped early by their monitoring boards on ethical grounds, because those in the circumcised group had a lower rate of HIV contraction than the control group.[22] The results showed that circumcision reduced vaginal-to-penile transmission of HIV by 60%, 53%, and 51%, respectively."
Reduces the chance of getting AIDS by over 50%. That's huge. And, that carries over to other STDs, to some degree.
Also, the girls like circumcised equipment over untrimmed junk.
You're a shithead so you might not consider freedom to be the default position for government. But, as I see it, because it's not harmful to a child, the government has no business banning it. Even if it only offered a 1% health benefit. Call me when it's linked to people getting AIDS and cancer.
Coming from the biggest piece of shit coward on the internet I take every insult you throw as a confirmation that I am on the side of right. I also like how you forgot to post the very next line:
There is
little or no evidence that it protects against male-to-female HIV transmission[77][78], and whether it is of benefit
in developed countries and among men who have sex with men is undetermined.[79][80][81]
Heres what OTHERS have to say on the subject...ALSO from that wikipedia page :
As of 2010[update], the Royal Australasian College of Physicians state: "After reviewing the currently available evidence, the RACP believes that the frequency of diseases modifiable by circumcision, the level of protection offered by circumcision and the complication rates of circumcision
do not warrant routine infant circumcision in Australia and New Zealand. However it is reasonable for parents to weigh the benefits and risks of circumcision and to make the decision whether or not to circumcise their sons.
The 1996 position statement says that "
circumcision of newborns should not be routinely performed",[157] and the 2004 information to parents says: 'Circumcision is a "non-therapeutic" procedure, which means it
is not medically necessary. Parents who decide to circumcise their newborns often do so for religious, social, or cultural reasons. [. . .] After reviewing the scientific evidence for and against circumcision, the CPS
does not recommend routine circumcision for newborn boys. Many paediatricians no longer perform circumcisions.'[49]
Finnish Medical Association opposes circumcision of infants for non-medical reasons, arguing that
circumcision does not bring about any medical benefits and it may risk the health of the infant as well as his right to physical integrity
The
American Medical Association supports the AAP's 1999 circumcision policy statement with regard to non-therapeutic circumcision, which they define as the non-religious, non-ritualistic,
not medically necessary, elective circumcision of male newborns. They state that "policy statements issued by professional societies representing Australian, Canadian, and American pediatricians
do not recommend routine circumcision of male newborns."[
