I'm not Jewish but you missed the point. (Phnarr phnarr)

The constant friction more or less from birth will de-sensitize the nerves.
And therefore dull sexual pleasure/s.

But I'm sure it must feel raw if you do it when your 20 or 30.. 😥

Edit: Good people have suggested that religion was born in the stone age.
It has progressed little when compared to the evolution of modern society. (Mainly within the last hundred years or so.)

She bought me 6 Eldorado beers and I've finished them already. I'm not even argumentative, yet

What scale of the barbaric rituals would I like to hate more? Hmmm...

If it did would it be more or less acceptable?

I'm curious as to why you picked this particular subject to get upset about, and what part of what I've already pointed out is not clear to you?

From the BBC link: 'Practised in 30 countries in Africa and some countries in Asia and the Middle East' although my understanding is that it's mainly an African thing.

[duhawkz]

It does appear to be mostly an African thing

FGM is an African favourite.
That and extravagant funerals.

But the continent is still firmly in the grasp of the caveman. Even though you can buy a Rolex for 5USD at almost any set of lights you stop at. 😂

A lot of religion has hee haw to do with what is written. Since it's literal meanings are mostly vague or obscure it is a gold mine for religionist leaders to plunder for what ever meaning they see fit.
I know quite a lot about Islam and Christianity but it never fails to amaze me how many different opinions there are about something that is already centuries old.
If they were serious about religion one would like to think they'd have got it all down pat by now.
And even walked through a lot of the major beefs between themselves.

Wankers...

The old adage 'Don't upset the witchdoctor' is still very valid in Nigeria as soon as you get out of the major cities. Quite amazing considering they have TV and internet, you would think their days were numbered but they still manage to convince the villagers of their power.

Bit like religion I suppose.

2005-10 I lived next door to a family of Africans, he was a pastor and they were all very religious. One day I happened
in conversation to ask one of their many children if they had seen the Harry Potter films to which they looked shocked
and then said that they weren't allowed to as the films had "witchcraft" in them. I couldn't believe I was hearing this in
London in the 21st century. Then again many years prior to this one of my exes was a solicitor (rather unsurprisingly in East
London again) who told me about a case she was dealing with involving a family who lived in Forest Gate who thought a
good way to stop their (ill) toddler from crying was to invite the local witch doctor over (In forest gate FFS) and for him to
proceed to beat the bad spirits out of the child with a metal hoover pipe. Brain damaging the child in the process and inflicting
dozens of physical injuries. I guess that's what happens when it's mud hut one day, and inner city the next. They knew
it was out of order enough to try and lie and say the kid fell down the stairs, so cultural misunderstanding doesn't really cut it.

Witchcraft and the occult is still big business in less developed countries.
West Africa has film companies who exist just to make JuJu movies. Special Effects and all.

Witchcraft is an older religion than the God religions.
The God religions were a better sell.
