ORIGINAL: Thadius So what does any of that have to do with having your foreskin clipped or not? Circumcision protects to some degree against various sexually transmitted diseases, especially in the hotter climates. That results in circumcised males and their partners having a higher reproductive success, as they do not suffer as much from the debilitating or sterilizing or lethal effects of such diseases. Thus it becomes evolutionary advantageous to continue circumcising their males. However, at the same time as a population they become relatively more vulnerable to sexually transmitted diseases; whereas non-circumcising populations evolve to become relatively more resistant against sexually transmitted diseases (since their vulnerable individuals have been removed by natural selection). Thus circumcising populations have both a huge vulnerability for sexually transmitted diseases and will have a better reproductive success from any other behavior that limits the spread of sexually transmitted diseases. Vectors of such diseases are homosexuals and adulterous females. Thus repressing both groups is evolutionarily advantageous to populations that circumcise their males. That is why such populations murder adulterous females, stoning them to death, burying or burning them alive, slitting their throats and drowning them in wells. Evolution may even make such behavior not only cultural, but instinctual, given sufficient time. The same switch to this kind of 'honor killings' of females will occur in the USA in about a hundred years if they persist in circumcising their males. They are all doomed. After reading this post, I know what my instincts are suggesting I do.
