What are the arguments for it, if not religious, and not for medical reasons?
Is it actually cleaner?
Cleaner than having a foreskin when not following proper hygiene practices
I surgically removed my ass so I don't have to wipe. It's much cleaner this way, and god loves me more somehow.
Cleaner if you're living without running water.
No. It starts from “it’s always been this way”, and then people come up with retroactive justifications because they feel negative feelings about being mutilated without their consent and need to justify it to themselves.
Honestly there isn't a lot of good scientific studies on this. There are medical reasons to get a circumcision but I'm no expert.
I wish there was more good information on it. People seem very emotional about the topic and without good info it's hard to have a meaningful discussion about it.
For medical reasons. A lot of people on these threads like to say there's no medical reasons, but that's just not true. They're just kinda minor and a bit disputed.
You can make the same claims about FGM. Minor inconsequential medical benefits should not be a defense for removing part of a person's genitals without consent.
It's weird how these threads never mention another reason many folks do it... Women often prefer cut to uncut.
Do not take my word for it, though. Go ask single woman what they think. This is a thing. Don't shoot the messenger, though I know you all will lol. Downvote away.
