And having condomless sex, wouldn't it drag or chafe along the vaginial walls?
Also, cleaning it is a pain right? |
There are over 1000 (maybe over 9000 even) nerve endings in the foreskin that are cut off during circumcision, so condomless sex with a foreskin FEELS BETTER. Also, that chafing, well, it's lubed up inside, so it's not painful, and it FEELS BETTER FOR THE WOMAN. It's how sex is supposed to happen between mammals. You only think it looks weird because you're in America. Only 25% of men are circumcized worldwide (only Jews and Muslims), but 75% are in America (for bullshit health reasons that are lies). But that number's decreasing. It's more like 60% in America now, and decreasing faster and faster as more parents do their own research and find out how painful it is for the baby. They don't use any anesthesia.
And cleaning it is easy. You use soap and water in a bath or shower silly.

There are reasons... it makes sex less enjoyable therefore people are less likely to do it. Puritan tradition.

Well back then they did it to stop masturbation, because they did it when you were 13, not when you were a baby. They waited right until you hit puberty and your penis got really sensitive. THEN they cut it up. And then everybody in America stopped masturbating, right?
It was popularized in America by John Harvey Kellogg, inventor of corn flakes!!!

He also thought we should pour carbolic acid on any girl's clitoris so they wouldn't masturbate either.
It was purely anti-masturbation, and then later the bad science kicked in and made up some health reasons.
But the truth is, to this day, you're more likely to kill the baby due to a complication during circumcision than for them to get a disease from their foreskin. (They're both very small chances, but the death one IS bigger.)
