What?
Americans are weird as fuck over cutting off bits of flesh from your cock. Psychotic behaviour, particularly when they are mutilating children with no say in the matter. Objectively insane.
Don't forget the rabbi sucks the blood off the penis with his mouth! I think it's only certain ones, not all, but fuck me it's disgusting and cruel .

That’s an orthodox Jewish thing, actually. Circumcision still happens in the US, and for Christians but it’s usually done at the hospital.
Correct. I couldn't think of the name, but generally in the hospital and they just ask at birth.
Cool cool, yeah.
And just to be 100% clear here, the blood sucking thing–to my understanding–is not even close to a common practice among Jewish folks. We’re talking only orthodox and possibly even only ultra-orthodox.
Oh, and you might have been looking for the word “rabbi”.
It's actually "mohel", but I'd assume (without any reason) that all or most mohels are rabbis I guess, but there's also mohelets, female mohels, and those probably aren't rabbis so. Some overlap probably between "mohel" and "rabbi", but different things.
Thanks!
Yeah, ive been up too long, can't think straight
Religious people often are. Dogma trumps reason.

Isn’t that only a jewish thing ?
Not at all. About 3% of US males are Jewish, but around 80% of US males are circumcised. It's just societally accepted mutilation. The origins have a lot to do with puritanical attitudes toward sex, probably historically influenced by religion.
Damn, I didn’t know that
It's wild, it's a normal thing to mutilate your male childrens genitals in the U.S.
After the skin is cut away the sensitive glans is exposed to air and constant abrasion from clothing. It keratinizes and forms a thick, hardened layer and loses sensitivity, it's barbaric.
He's uncircumcised and she hates foreskin.
Which is the norm outside, say, the Middle East and some parts of the US.
Male genital mutilation
Yup. Call it what it is.
Cosmetic surgery on the genitals of newborns unable to consent.
Most of the US sadly. It's weird to cut on kids.
the joke is that the man does not have boundaries (human toilet? sure whatever - note he's not enthusiastic about it) while the woman does, specifically over something he had no input in.
i guess he could always get an adult circumcision if he really wants to use her as a urinal.
From the different colors of the two speech bubbles, I'm pretty sure HE'S the human toilet, and she's begrudgingly ok with it. Whereas foreskin is apparently a bridge too far.
Her loss though, more for me then lol.
If you're looking for foreskins, I know a guy who can have you swimming in them for a song.
