Remondino's distaste and dislike for the prepuce or [[foreskin]] prompts one to ask how a man could stand to have prepuce which he detested attached to his body? History does not tell us his circumcision status, but modern psychology may give us a clue. We now know that [[Adamant father syndrome| circumcised men who become fathers]] and [[circumcised doctors]] express a preference for circumcision. | Remondino's distaste and dislike for the prepuce or [[foreskin]] prompts one to ask how a man could stand to have prepuce which he detested attached to his body? History does not tell us his circumcision status, but modern psychology may give us a clue. We now know that [[Adamant father syndrome| circumcised men who become fathers]] and [[circumcised doctors]] express a preference for circumcision as Remondino did. Moreover, circumcision is a traumatic procedure. Traumatized persons have a tendency to repeat the trauma on others. Remondino performed numerous circumcisions. | ||
If Remondino was circumcised, how would it have occurred? When Remondino was born in Turin in 1846, only Jews circumcised their infant boys, which was done by a ''mohel''. There is some speculation that Remondino was descended from Sephardic Jews, so he may have had a ritual Jewish circumcision. | |||
