    Oh. I assumed you meant as a baby. I guess this is a rare reason to have this done as a baby.

      What’s the reason to have it done as a baby? There is no reason; you can’t determine any potential penis issues someone might have while they’re a baby

        There are a small number of complications that can arise, including some that require the procedure to be done later. Obviously this is more traumatic for a teenager than a baby that doesn’t have modesty issues and heals much, much faster.

        But what you do with your kids is up to you. I’m not gonna be there standing over your shoulder.

      Bruh.

      I was circumcised as an infant. I didn’t find out about the nerve damage until I was a teenager.

      You know how puberty works? For me it was how it always was, and I didn’t know something was wrong until an ER trip.
