My Filipina wife told me that the boys in The Philippines get circumcised at age 12. It's a rite of passage. In her village her uncle was the circumciser. You'd lay your ------ across a chopping block he'd then pull the -------- out and quickly sever off a portion with a straight razor. Then they pack some herbs on it, and then you'd wear a banana leaf skirt. After a week they go to the river and compare and show off their new circumcised ------s.
I said, "So our son needs to be circumcised" She responded "Of course, otherwise the girls will laugh at him"
This was 50 plus ago. I think most go to doctors nowadays.
True story; I'm not making this up
