I grew up asking questions why little boys go through painful genital poking yet we are told female genital mutilation is bad...RELIGIOUS REASONS – circumcision is a common practice in the Jewish and Islamic faiths, and is also practiced by many African communities as a tribal or ethnic tradition. MEDICAL REASONS - During the 19th century, many medical practitioners believed that being circumcised was more hygienic than not being circumcised. As a result, the routine medical circumcision of all boys, regardless of religious faith, became a widespread practice However, routine male circumcision gradually became less common as many members of the medical community began to argue that it had no real medical benefit in the vast majority of cases. I never found any justification in poking little boys genitals in Africa whiles the girls got theirs ban.
