first it was religion, then it was health, now it is conformity.
i also think a central aim is desensitisation of children, which adults are obsessed with.
some of the health claims have been it reduces masturbation (which has now been proven to be helpful to the immune system and stress reliever)
-it used to be claimed to reduce cancer of the penis and cervix
-it is now claimed to reduce HIV, but there is the highest rate of HIV in the US (of industrialised countries) and ALSO, the highest rate of foreskin removal
-it was also claimed that foreskin removal reduces urinary tract infrections, actually the foreskin helps PREVENT UTI's
SO, the question is, WHAT JUSTIFICATION for foreskin removal will be trotted out next??
Can anyone make some predictions?
I'm thinking maybe diabetes?
obesity?
Or will adults finally own up and admit it is to desensitise children, the aim of child sexual surgery throughout history?
When will science overcome subjectivity, in this case?
