Stamp: Circumcision is Insulting

Original quote: "Isn't it insulting to the average male's intelligence to think that surgery is preferable because he can't be entrusted with washing his genitals, when somehow he manages to brush his teeth, clean his ears and blow his nose?" Original Source, as far as I know

I really dislike the pro-circumcision argument that falls along the lines of, "If he's cut, it'll be easier for me/him to clean."

Despite what you might think, cleaning an intact penis is not difficult.

This is how simple it is, really:
1) Gently pull the foreskin back
2) Rinse with warm water only. Soap under the foreskin can cause irritation and swelling
3) Pull the foreskin back in place over the head of your penis.


Infancy - early childhood:
Only the outside of the intact penis needs to be rinsed with warm water.
Foreskin should NOT be retracted during cleaning.

Age of 5/6
Boys should be taught to retract their own foreskins once a week and rinse with warm water.
Boys might not be able to fully retract until aged 10 or more, but this is normal.
