hey what I am looking for is an American history of how circumcision went from a Jewish practice to medical/cultural/aesthetic concern. I am currently writing a research paper on this subject so if you could link me to your sources (please no Wikipedia. academic journals would be great) I would greatly appreciate it.
hi! It might be worth x-posting this question to /r/AskScience or /r/Medicine (?). As for this sub, not discouraging other input on this, but fyi, I've found a few previous posts on circumcision that cite some sources you may find useful
Why did circumcision catch on in places like the US, Canada and Australia but not in Europe?
How did circumcision grow from a practice of Judaism into a popular practice in Western medicine?
Why did the Marines require you to be circumcised to join up in in the 1940s?
How did medical circumcision of male infants become the norm in the United States?
