Why aren't Canadians circumcised?!


Question: Why aren't Canadians circumcised!?
Answers:
Circumcised!? they should be bloody well castratedWww@Answer-Health@Com

Many Canadians of the older generation are!. Quite a few of the younger generation are intact (uncircumcised)!. The reasons could be anything from immigration from Asia and Europe (which traditionally don't circumcise), and the fact that circumcision is no longer covered in the Canadian health plan!. The Canadian Paediatric Society has also said that circumcision is not recommended!.

Just like in the US, the rate varies by region!. The Prairie Provinces of Manitoba, Saskatchewan, and Alberta still have the highest rates, but even those rates are low at around only 25% in Manitoba (2003 statistics)!. Atlantic Canada (Nova Scotia, Newfoundland) along with the northern territories, typically has the lowest with only 1% being circumcised in 2003!. Interestingly, Prince Edward Island has the highest in Canada!. Ontario used to be high, as did British Columbia, but rates have dropped significantly over the years!. Quebec's rate is also very low!. The rate dropped greatly in the 70s!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

There are many circumcised Canadians, but the rate of male genital mutilation has always been less there than in the
US!. The rates in Canada have fallen, and the rates of male genital mutilation are falling in the US!.

Gradually, men are discovering that the sensitivity and pleasure in sex are much more intense with a natural, normal, intact penis!. Chopping off half of the penis skin doesn't exactly make it feel better for sex!.

Infant circumcision, because of the damage to the blood supply, the nerve endings, the scar tissue formed and the trauma to the tissues, results in inhibited growth and development!. The average circumcised penis is slightly smaller than the intact one!. I feel that anything that takes away from a guy's size isn't a good thing!!

Several reasons why circumcision became so widespread in the US in the past were that doctors make money from the practice and are members of, or influenced by minority religious groups that try to impose this mutilation on others!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Some are, some aren't, just like other North Americans!. The rate of routine infant male circumcision is dropping as more pediatricians are agreeing with the proposition that there is no medical reason to justify it!. It is elective surgery, and why would we want to subject our babies to the risk of death from surgery for what is essentially a cosmetic operation!? Not to mention that all that tissue taken away has a sexual function!. It's all lost forever when a boy is circumcised!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

The same reason 80% of the world's men aren't!. There is no medical reason to circumcise!. The rate of newborn circumcisions, even in America, is now down to 50% - so half of the boys born today are uncircumcised!.

The only reason to circumcise is one of religious observance - Jewish and Muslim faiths require it!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

They have socialized medicine and try to save on everything! If you are over a certain age you wait for surgery, so if you kick it they save! Basically they are one screwed up country, not unlike most of Europe that also has socialized medicine! More than likely its a class thing like Mexico, where the wealthy are circumcised and the poor masses are not!Www@Answer-Health@Com

Hi ya berginabruiser!. Someone has been feeding you a story that is not true!.

Canada is just like any other country when it comes to circumcision - some guys are and some guys aren't!. Part of it has to do with the European tradition where far fewer guys are "cut", simply because their parents don't see a need for it!.

If you go into a locker room in Canada, you may see a room full of cut guys or half and half!. I know that at my gym, the uncut guys would be in the minority, but there are more all the time!.

A lot of the time, the main reason to circumcize a baby is because the dad wants his son to look like him!. There is some evidence to suggest that circumsized men are less likely to develop penile cancer, but the jury is still out on that!. There's more information here (http://www!.circumstitions!.com/Cancer!.htm!.!.!. but it may be more information than you want!.

A lot of cut guys will tell you that they wish they hadn't been cut as babies because they would like to have a foreskin!. It increases the sensitivity of the glans (head of the penis) considerably having the foreskin intact!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

this guy is a joke look up the morons questions , he wants to sell his ovaries on e bay , sue his gradfather because he fathered a girl instesd of a boy , hates everything canadian !. and owes 1!.3 million for his own cowrdice !. nut job !. total idiot !. still owes 1!.3 million !. rammy h you dont have the balls to casterate anything !.Www@Answer-Health@Com

I believe that some Americans aren't either!. Its not manditory to have a normal life!. You can't blame the person for not being circumcised, it was the parents who made that choice!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

What!.!.!. all of them!? The men and women!?
Your question is somewhat vague!.

But the stats on circumcision in Canada in 2003 are as follows:
Nationwide between 10-20%!.
Lowest rates in Nova Scotia (1%) and Newfoundland (0%)!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Most younger guys aren't because it is now considered an elective procedure, and insurance won't pay for it!. So the rate has dropped dramatically and most male babies are being left natural!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

There are plenty who are!.
But not as many as in the USA:was a hype in your country
Not any more though!.
More and more people are against it!.
