@CapitalB in der ukraine hat man auch nur die wahl zwischen bestechung und an der front verheizt werden.

und wir finanzieren das hier. das pisst mich am meisten an.

@spinneria ich hätte ja angenommen bei dem milliardengrab das ÖR ist würde zumindest die propaganda ordentlich sein xD

heute im stürmer, äh, der tagesschau:

> [...] Wehrunwillige bezahlten umgerechnet zwischen 1.800 und über 13.000 Euro für ausgestellte Bescheinigungen einer Wehruntauglichkeit.

"wehrunwillige"

Circumcision is a contentious and slightly taboo topic - as such, there is a lot of superstition and bad information out there.

Most people either know nothing, or have strong opinions.

Most men are pre-disposed to prefer everyone be like them. Most doctors are pre-disposed to prefer whatever makes them the most money.

If you search "Should I circumcise my son" on google, you will think there's a Scientific Consensus that it's beneficial.

But if you seek out anti-circumcision material, you will think it's one of the most heinous and barbaric practices ever to have beset the human race.

The reality is that the health benefits are minuscule at best, and the harm described in the anti-circumcision community is often overblown or lacking in concrete evidence.

It should be immediately obvious that most cut men live normal fulfilling lives. It should also be obvious that being uncut does not carry any real health risks because otherwise these problems would be well known in Europe, where circumcision is near nonexistent.

My personal opinion is that none of the perceived benefits outweigh the risk of complications from surgery (doctor slips with the knife). This type of thing happens with a non-trivial regularity, and the result are life-altering and sometimes deadly.

Is there anyone here who is planning to become parents and is faced with this question?
