    Fellow American here.

    Didn't realize circumcision was not at all prominent in the UK and Europe until I married my British wife.

    Also, there's a huge amount of cognitive dissonance in Americans when it comes to circumcision, so be prepared for backlash should you not circumcise your son.

    Netflix even has a documentary on the topic worth watching: 2018 American Circumcision
