Circumcision, just like any other surgery, does have risks. While most circumcisions do not have serious complications, risks include severe pain, prolonged bleeding, and infection. Every year there are a small number of deaths due to complications of infant circumcision. There are also cases of surgical error causing irreversible injuries to the penis. Given that circumcision has known medical risks and no known medical benefits, most doctors recommend against circumcision. No major medical association recommend routine infant circumcision. Circumcision is safest with adult or adolescent men who are able to keep the surgical site clean following the surgery. Circumcision is extremely uncommon in most of the world. Circumcision is far less common now in the United States than it once was. During the 1970s and 1980, around 80% of male infants were circumcised in the United States. A study conducted in the United States from 2005-2007 found that circumcision rates had fallen to below 40% in most of the United States. In the western United States, fewer than 25% of infant males were circumcised in 2005-2007. Circumcision can have long lasting consequences. Circumcision removes a normal part of the penis that functions to protect the glans of the penis. Removal of the foreskin can cause decreased sensitivity of the penis and decreased pleasure during sexual intercourse. This is yet another reason why circumcision is becoming increasingly uncommon.

What is the level of acceptability of safe male circumcision among spouses?
I would say very low except for those that have been misled about the reasoning behind it. In most of the world circumcision is seen as a marcabre and savage thing to do to a child. So when keeping in mind that circumcision is only inflicted on about 15% of the worlds children and that in the countrys where it is most prevalent women have no say in the procedure it would be very low. There is in fact no such thing as a safe circumcision> that is like saying safe amputation of healthy limbs. The result of circumcision is irreversible damage and in some cases death, In the USA more then 100 infants a year die as a result.
