| MrBubbles said: 1 in a million is the estimate of penises lost from complications from circumcision. studies on sensitivity are inconsistent as there are studies that show lessened sensitivity and studies that show increased sensitivity. so you can stop with your FUD |
Didn't say lost. I said negativly effected via botched circumsision.
Some research studies show as many as 9 kids out of every 100,000 die who go through circumsision.

As for the studies... it's not even if you actually look at the studies... and who funds them... on the one hand... Medical people, on the other hand...mostly religious people who want circumsision to not look bad since a religious tradition isn't worth a childs life to a lot of people.
There is a reason why the US is the only country that circumsises people for non-religious reasons.
And that's general ignorance in the United States.
