Some of Alex Wodak's arguments for circumcision
| “ | Intact is harmful to boys and men Think of real harms to the uncircumcised boy and later man of something like a 1 in 10 risk of urinary tract infection in the uncircumcised, whereas the risk of urinary tract infection in the circumcised is very much lower. Cancer of the penis for example occurs in 1 in 600 uncircumcised men is virtually unheard of in circumcised penis. – Alex Wodak[2] |
| “ | Skin excretions cause cancer It's to do with the anatomy of the foreskin which traps material underneath it including presumably cancer causing excretions from the skin. – Alex Wodak[2] |
