If doctors are going to mutilate babies can they at least remove their appendix. Now that's a useful procedure worth looking into. 

I mean it's kind of the same topic of the appendix, 

Difference is that you can do a quick/easy/non-dangerous circumsision while appendix removal is much more dangerous, problematic...

But if it was as easy as circumising , I wouldn't have say no if people removed the appendix at birth as I stayed 2 months at the hospital for it

Here's the first article that popped up : https://www.webmd.com/sexual-conditions/guide/circumcision

I quote :

" The American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) found that the health benefits of newborn male circumcision outweigh the risks"

"Benefits : 

There is some evidence that circumcision has health benefits, including:

- A decreased risk of urinary tract infections.

- A reduced risk of some sexually transmitted diseases in men.

- Protection against penile cancer and a reduced risk of cervical cancer in female sex partners.

- Prevention of balanitis (inflammation of the glans) and balanoposthitis (inflammation of the glans and foreskin).

- Prevention of phimosis (the inability to retract the foreskin) and paraphimosis (the inability to return the foreskin to its original location).

- Circumcision also makes it easier to keep the end of the penis clean.

Note: Some studies show that good hygiene can help prevent certain problems with the penis, including infections and swelling, even if the penis is not circumcised. In addition, using a condom during sex will help prevent STDs and other infections.

 

Risks : 

Like any surgical procedure, there are risks associated with circumcision. However, this risk is low. Problems associated with circumcision include:

- Pain  (which is non existing for babies as they don't even realize) 

- Risk of bleeding and infection at the site of the circumcision

- Irritation of the glans

- Increased risk of meatitis (inflammation of the opening of the penis)

- Risk of injury to the penis 

"

But are the risks really worth it, is the question? The arguments you mentioned can mostly be solved when uncut men wash their dicks. And honestly I expect any person to wash their genitals. 

From ethical standpoint: Is it ethical to have a procedure on a human being who can't give their consensus to a procedure?

No, that gives an ugly scar

It's not the same. An appendix can threaten your life, while a foreskin mostly doesn't

I got my appendix removed 2 years ago and after a week or two I was already back to my normal routine. The procedure no longer takes a long time because they make 3 little cuts and thats how they do it so ur argument is wrong

[Vergil 2,296]

Uncut dicks are ugly af. 

Too lazy to read the whole article but what if they want to do it for aesthetic reasons ?

Which butcher are you getting your appendix removed by?

If you are uncut and adult you a free to get circumcised. 

[Moo 2,082]

Good.

The argument for religious feedom in these situations makes me so angry. I don’t care what people believe, they’re perfectly entitled to their own thoughts, but when that starts to infringe on the rights and liberty of others, I really makes me quite upset. It may well be part of their religion to circumcise boys, it’s culture in many African tribes to circumcise women, that doesn’t make it right. 

I’m circumcised. But not at birth, and not for religious reasons. I made the decision when I was old enough to consent, and knew that I needed it for health purposes. Nobody should make any decision concerning permenant bodily change of another. It’s that person’s choice and that person’s alone. Religion is not an adequate reason for breaking that rule. 

Good for you Iceland. Come through 

[Korok 4,272]

Honestly I really don't know what to do with my arms in pictures. For aesthetic reasons, I think I'm going to get them removed so that I could pose without feeling insecure.

when is a d*ck good lookin though unless it's p*rn? 

[PartySick 173,638]

Ngl, foreskin kind of creeps me out

And it's said "well, the hygienic benefit of being cut really doesn't matter 'cause you can still clean yourself" but how many guys do you know that would actually take care of themselves  hell, some of the guys I know have to be outright insulted for their BO to even think about wearing deodorant.

Though I do think carrying out this procedure (or anything else really) on the grounds of religious beliefs is insane so I'm here for it I guess.
