If you have ever heard a baby scream in agony as his foreskin is being first of all torn from the glans to which it is attached at birth and the cut of it would hardly convince you that the poor thing has become a man all of a sudden. that is not to mention the crying that takes place every time they urinate or defecate on the raw wound of their mutilated penis before it heals properly.

Not in America but in some countries yes

No as a matter of fact it makes him somewhat less of a man. the foreskin plays an important part in both the maintenance of the glans of the penis and in sexual pleasure for both himself and his pardner.

Circumcision is a religious and cultural rite and is used as a symbol that sets the victim apart from the rest. In some cases it symbolises the transition from boyhood into manhood. in others like parts of the Muslim religion it is supposed to symbolise a fealty to Mohammad, even though there is no evidence that Mohammad himself was circumcised. the Jews do it because there is reference to a command by their god in their Old Testament. English speaking country's were originally convinced by mid 19th century British medics that circumcision would stop boys from masturbating which they claimed was responsible for any number of diseases ranging from syphilis to insanity. The British themselves and the majority of their ex colony's have since come around to not believing this nonsense any more However no doubt because of the large marked that was created by this practice in America the custom is still quite strong, though weakening.
