* '''"Today, the [[foreskin]] has no function any more."'''
*: This argument holds very persistently, often used by women who only know [[circumcised ]] men, but even by urologists who earn a lot of money with [[circumcision]]s and therefore welcome any argument pro [[circumcision]].
*: A common stereotype of this argument sounds like this: "The [[foreskin]] was necessary when we lived in trees and crawled on all fours. The [[foreskin]] then had protected the [[Glans penis|glans]]. Now that we are running on two legs and men no longer grind their genital over the floor, the [[foreskin]] can therefore get away."
*: During the [[Circumcision Debate]] 2012 in Germany, a single Muslim children's surgeon from Cologne was repeatedly quoted<ref>{{REFweb

*: For many years, the medicine knows that the [[foreskin]] is a very important organ of the body that not only contains a large number of very sensitive nerve endings and is very beneficial for sex, but also protects the [[Glans penis|glans]] against drying, [[keratinization]], and sunburn.
* '''"Then you may also not vaccinate children."'''
