In this episode, we talk about infant male circumcision. We discuss the hospital circumcision industry - the surgery, the complications, and what they do with the foreskins they remove. We explain the differences between common hospital procedure and Jewish ritual circumcision, and address the claims that circumcision robs men of their Divine masculinity, sexual pleasure, and ability to bond, love, and co-create.
