We love intact care but informed choice more !
Reasons parents choose to circumcise their sons and why they're incorrect:
π« "Its cleaner." - Actually no, its not. The fo****in is fused to the g***s until puberty leaving nothing to clean whatsoever until 10-12 years old. When it does detach around that time, you wash it like the rest of your body.
π« "It reduces the risk of UTI'S." - The risk reduction is LESS than 1%. Not significant enough to amputate healthy functioning tissue. Not to mention, that reduction only applies to infancy. Not adulthood. As adults, intact and circumcised males have the same risk of developing urinary tract infections.
*Allowing a circumcised bleeding p***s to heal in a diaper full of urine and f***s increases risk of infection.
π« "It reduces the risk of pe**le cancer." -Aside from the fact that the American Cancer Society has already spoken out about that not being true, let's pretend for a minute that it is. Pe**le cancer is already so rare, that your son has a better chance of developing breast cancer than he does of ever developing pe**le cancer. Pe**le cancer includes the shaft and g***s. The fo****in makes absolutely no difference.
π« "It reduces the risk of STDs and HIV" - The only thing that prevents STDs are CONDOMS. Not circumcision. In actuality, the fo****in has been shown to have cells that act as part of the immune system in protecting against STDs.
π« "His p***s should match his dad's." - Ew. No it shouldn't. Your son will never notice a difference in his and his dad's p***s unless your family is keen on whipping it out at thanksgiving and comparing.
π« "Circumcised p***ses just look better." - All p***ses look the same when erect, intact or not. Aside from the fact that the g***s on a circumcised male is keratinized and "dried out" therefore looking smaller than it really should. Not to mention pushing your s*xual preferences on your son's body is pe******ia.
Now let's look at the facts:
β
A baby boy dies every 2 days as a direct result of a non medically necessary circumcision.
β
Thousands of men will suffer long term complications including meatitis, erectile dysfunction, painful erections, diminished s*xual pleasure, rough jack-hammering s*x on their partners to achieve or**sm and more.
β
Over 250,000 men in the US are currently restoring their fo****in and wish they had been left intact from birth.
β
Countless men as adults have sued their parents and practitioners for performing their circumcision without their consent as babies.
β
The lack of fo****in will affect every circumcised male and their partner's intimate life. The g***s are supposed to be moist and covered, not dried out and keratinized.
...Still think it's a good idea? If anyone has any questions and would like more information, feel free to message me.
This post is not meant to shame circumcised males or parents that made the decision to do so. It is meant to raise awareness & inform others of the risks. You can regret making the decision and share what you have learned so the cycle stops.
Most women and men are screaming womenβs rights but yet cutting off their little boys body parts, where are their rights? Who will stand up for them? As mothers of boys, it's your responsibility to be their voice!
Huge thanks to Tiffany Maillet and David Candela for putting this together!
