Recently, an anti-circumcision petition has been posted and they are ignorant of the clear and present benefits of circumcision. Not only is circumcision a right of the protected group of religious people choosing to practice this beneficial behavior,
Here are some of the benefits:
1. A decreased risk of Urinary Tract Infections
2. A reduced risk of sexually transmitted infections and diseases
3. Protection against penile cancer
4. Protection against cervical cancer in female sex partners
5. Prevention of balanitis, the inflammation of the glans, and paraphimosis, the inflammation of the glans and foreskin
6. Prevention of phimosis, the inability to retract the foreskin
This petition is simply to address the ignorance of those against circumcision and to bring attention to the benefits!
