why does it impair the female?  She can still have children.  She can still
have sex.

do you consider lowered sensation an impairment?  If so, how can you be
certain that circumcision doesn't impair sensation?

are you sure it's only helpful?

Why is it that these countries all have circumcision rates above 75%
North and West Africa plus much of East Africa, eg Algeria, Cameroon, Chad,
Dahomey, Egypt (Muslim and Christian), Ethiopia, Gabon, Gambia, Guinea,
Ivory Coast, Kenya. Libya, Madagascar, Mali, Mauretania, Morocco, Niger,
Nigeria, Senegal, Sierra Leone, Somalia, Sudan, Tanzania, Togo, Tunisia,
Northern Uganda, Upper Volta, Zaire [NB, some of these now have new names
but it would be a real surprise if most of the guys there had grown new
foreskins as a result.). Plus the Islamic areas of Asia - Afghanistan,
Bahrein, Bangladesh, Indonesia (largest Muslim nation), Iran, Iraq, Israel
[OK not Muslim], Jordan, Kuwait, Oman, Pakistan, (Hindu minority about 10%),
Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Syria, Turkey, UAE, Yemen (N+S). Plus Tonga and Samoa,
with Canada and the US at the bottom end of the range.

While Europe and Asia are down below 25%.....Do you see a theme.....
