> The facts are clear cut: circumcision has zero benefits (health, hygiene, or otherwise), it can be dangerous, and it is proven to lessen sexual feeling. About 1 percent of uncircumcised boys will get a UTI during childhood. For circumcised boys, the estimate is just 0.13 percent. Uncircumcised men have a small risk of phimosis. There's also evidence that there's lower risk of HIV/STI transmission in circumcized men. There don't seem to be any very good studies that show difference in sensitivity. The AAP says that the benefits probably outweigh the costs, but they admit that both the benefits and costs are very small. Note: I personally think it's cruel to do that to a newborn and am against it. But you mentioned having clear facts.
