Hmmm... whenever this comes up, I'm glad I left my kids' intact. At the same time, I'm fairly indifferent about mine. Circumcized or otherwise, it's magnificent.
Also, given the hour I do want to remind non-US that it's weirdly seeped in the culture, perhaps even more so than gun ownership. I haven't the faintest idea why, though. Its also weirdly covered by my insurance, although only if done as part of the whole labor package. If you do it later on, it's additional cost (and me being a cheapskate was probably even a bigger deal than me being atheist, lol).
Look up John Harvey Kellogg. That should help explain things.
Yup, Kellogg's Cereal guy. Also avid hater of masturbation. He even wanted to pour acid on the clitoris so women would be desensitized as well.
There, tl;dr'd it for you
Yeah, America is a crazy place
I'm glad Kellogg's brother (who wasn't a puritan nutjob) couped him out of the company. I normally hate shit like that, but in this case it was a good thing.
The large number of Christians has led to it being common, so doctors ask every time a baby is born, and most of the time the parents say yes because they dont realize how it will affect their child
Christians are, always have been, and always will be a problem for everyone around them.
