Great article. Spengler is always worth reading.
I’m 56 yo. uncut and haven’t suffered any negative effects. Its natural and normal. Leave it alone, go natural!
The chart is a little misleading since it starts at a point in time when life expectancies were increasing. That is, even with a stable fertility rate there will be more people over 60 living today than in the 1950s.
The author’s primary point is sound. And of course, in the U.S., plenty of males who have no connection to the Jewish religion are circumcised for health and hygiene reasons. Yesterday’s medical orthodoxy is today’s taboo.
Any level of government having a say in the matter is stupid and just another example of how people now believe that freedom means being free to dictate to others.
Let parents decide just like they always have. If down the road their kid goes bad because of "foreskin envy" or "circumcision envy" it'll just prove the parents and the kid are both stupid. JMHO
And, if anyone cares to look “past” the tip of their own, circumcision also has health benefits the their partners, too.
Male Circumcision Cuts Women’s Cervical Cancer Risk
Study Shows Circumcision May Help Reduce Spread of HPV
Excerpt:Jan. 6, 2011 — Circumcising men can reduce cervical cancer risk in women, a new study shows.
The study involved more than 1,200 HIV-negative, heterosexual couples living in Uganda, where circumcision of male adults is increasingly encouraged as a means of slowing the spread of HIV/AIDS.
Half the men received the surgical procedure at enrollment and the other half were scheduled for circumcision after their participation in the trial ended.
Two years later, the female partners of the men who remained uncircumcised were more likely than the partners of the circumcised men to be infected with human papilloma virus (HPV) types most often associated with cervical cancer.
In earlier trials, Johns Hopkins University researcher Aaron A.R. Tobian, MD, PhD, and colleagues showed that male circumcision reduces HIV infection, HPV in men, and genital herpes.
I don't know why there are any Jews in Germany anyway. If Churban 'Europa' wasn't reason enough to leave it forever, maybe this will be.
And the rest of Europe (and perhaps America as well) are not far behind.
