is it circumcision common in non-muslim community in singapore, many people says it is good.?


Question:
Why this is popular now a days, i heard adults are going for this procedure now a days

Answers:
Most people advocating circumcision are only repeating what they've heard or been told by others. South Korea has the highest circumcision rate in the non-Muslim world, but there were no circumcision going on their 100 years ago. Why is it done now? Americans influenced Korean doctors who informed the citizens that all Korean men need to be circumcised. Adults went and did it, children did, etc. Now, if you ask the average doctor in Korea, they won't know that this hasn't always been done and they won't have accurate statistics (assuming that circumcision prevents cervical cancer which is false). The reason it spread so fast is because of the cultural norm of following authority figures. When someone with authority in such a culture tells people that something is necessary, they listen.

The reality is that no conclusive benefits can be attributed to circumcision. Virtually every claim is countered in half a dozen other studies. We do know, however, that circumcisions come with a variety of possible complications. Those are readily available from virtually every country in the world that practices circumcision.

The majority of the population in Singapore are of Chinese race, and Chinese don't believe in circumcision. It's actually better for women than for men.

I'm uncut, and it is a hassle to make sure everything is out before I put it away. It is a precaution to take to avoid 3 week old piss that the circumcized people do not have to take. I don't know about it being more popular nowadays, but yes, circumcision is very common in non-Muslim and non-Jewish (who also must do it according to their religion) communities in the USA. I really don't know why. Most men here are circumcized, including Catholics, Italians and Irish, who back in Europe are not circumsized.


It has just recently been discovered that men who are circumcised are less likely to get AIDS.
