Oh, FFS!!!

 

Morning

Oh, for fuck sake.

I think his brain was circumcised. And Infant Tylenol at a very low dose would be used - only if necessary. Otherwise, it can be extremely dangerous. Whether you agree with the procedure or not, it's still an accepted practice in the U.S. Some due to religious ideology, some due to aesthetics, some due to severe phimosis or paraphimosis, some due to the original idea that it was medically healthy over the long run.

Both the Mayo and Cleveland Clinic indicate that the foreskin retains sexual secretions which can harbor infectious diseases (HIV, HPV, etc). If the area is not cleaned properly, well.... But who goes from a romp and immediately into a shower? No one I've ever known. So, it makes sense.

I've been thinking about the origins for a long time now --- aside from the Jewish and Islamic religions. Let's consider the Christian ideology. How likely is it that one of their basic reasons for circumcision was a means to discourage masturbation?

If a male is not circumcised, the foreskin needs to be drawn back to wash the glans. Guys know washing their dicks can and does lead to an erection. Or at least a semi-erection. It is direct stimulation. The erection can easily lead to masturbation.

Hmmmm....

What do you think, Readers?
