I am surprised if the number is that low. In every conversation about the subject, I've only met one male who was not circumcised (his family was European). I feel like everyone is so pro-circumcision still.

There was some valid skepticism, even from intactivists, when these numbers where first brought to light but it seems that they are very much trustworthy—which is frankly to be expected considering the source. If any of you dismissed the findings due to it seeming to good to be true, please take a look at the actual research again; it's all on the level.

These numbers were not widely publicized in the US so I curious about how much of /r/Mensrights had never even heard of them.

This is truly monumental guys. If we've learned anything from the other countries that have abandoned the practice, such as Australia, very soon almost every boy will grow up intact.

I wouldn't say we've won, considering all the thousands of boys that are still being mutilated but we sure as hell are winning.
