    Actually the reasons for circumcision of a baby are not about wanting to deprive the kid of their future sexuality. Surprisingly, most circumcised males go on to have normal and sastisfying sex lives, without many of the diseases than can come from uncircumcised penises. Left uncircumcised, many male babies get a number of urinary tract infections in their first year of life, which is a major reason why babies are circumcised. Also - just FYI, most circumcision is painless and does not mutilate the penis in any way.

      So I have 3 boys and 1 is circumcised…I highly recommend you go in the room while the doctor is cutting off part of the penis and tell me it doesn’t hurt…it very clearly hurts and it is very clearly mutilated afterwards

        Well the doctor did a bad job if that’s the case. As a phys assistant in orthopedics I’ve seen a lot worse. But knowing you’re potentially helping someone makes it better. And I don’t believe your son is walking around with a mutilated penis.
