The bible doesn't give a fuck either?
They forgot to mention islam is also the reason of 90% of circumcisions performed worldwide.
Most of the other 10% are in the US btw. More than 55% of American boys are still being circumcised for no good reason.
im assuming you mean that STI prevention is not a good reason:More than 55% of American boys are still being circumcised for no good reason.

true, and true.No, because there is a lot of evidence that circumcision does NOT prevent STIs. If it did, explain the following maps:

(Green being the lowest prevalence, red the highest)
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circu...f_Male_Circumcision_Prevalence_at_Country.svg
(Red is the lowest prevalence, blue the highest)
Among developed countries, the USA has the highest rate of circumcision and the highest rate of hiv. Among developing countries, China has one of the lowest rates of circumcision and one of the lowest rates of hiv.
true, and true.
but those are trends, not controlled studies. what was the incidence accounting for the uneven prevalence (more of a contagious disease in one area automatically makes it easier for it to spread)? were people using condoms with equal frequency? using them the same way (correctly, hopefully)? how often did they have sex? with how many partners?
i doubt we have the same sexual customs and culture as the chinese.
to achieve statistical significance (thats how we prove things true or false), you need a large group of people who are as homogenous as possible, and then compare them. for instance, analyzing straight white men aged 20-30 of similar income within 1 state. or gay men. or black men. and so on. changing only 1 thing at a time (in this case, whether they were snipped or not).
