    Findings from the University of Sydney suggest that around 38% of the male population globally is circumcised.

    Circumcision is the exception. I’m sure the 60% of uncircumcised men across the world live tortured lives. Source

            The new CDC guidelines highlight methodologically flawed studies from Africa that have no relevance to the United States. They chose to ignore studies that were conducted in the United States and show no link between circumcision and the risk of sexually transmitted diseases, including HIV (Thomas et al., 2004).

            Media literacy necessitates consideration of opposing viewpoints from reputable sources. Not all “experts” agree with the CDC. Source.

              Of course they don’t. Still, the CDC is very reputable and I trust them over it. It’s also ridiculous to say the CDC is misinformation.
