It's gross. And it might transmit herpes.

Quote :

"Two more infants have contracted the herpes virus after undergoing an ultra-Orthodox Jewish type of circumcision, which has been linked to the spread of the potentially deadly virus to newborn boys, according to the New York City Health Department. In the ritual, known as metzitzah b'peh, after removing the foreskin of the penis the person performing the procedure places his mouth briefly over the wound, sucking a small amount of blood out, which is discarded. Antibacterial ointment is applied and the wound is bandaged. The health department says the procedure is dangerous because the contact with the mouth could transmit diseases such as herpes. Most adults are infected with the herpes simplex virus type 1, and while they may have no symptoms, the virus may be present in their saliva, according to the health department. (It is different from herpes simplex virus type 2, which is usually transmitted sexually.) "While HSV-1 in adults can cause the common cold sore, HSV-1 infection in newborns is very serious," a department statement says. Since 2000, there have been 13 reports in New York City of infants contracting HSV-1, two of whom died from the virus. The health department reported that an estimated 20,493 infants in New York City were exposed to the practice in that period. In the most recent case, the infant developed a fever seven days after circumcision and vesicular lesions the following day, according to a press release from the city health department. Seventy percent of neonatal herpes cases show lesions and only 40% produce a fever. The DOH passed a regulation in September requiring all those who perform the ritual to get parental consent on a form stating that the procedure can lead to health risks. Several Jewish groups and three rabbis filed a lawsuit in federal District Court in Manhattan arguing that "the government cannot compel the transmission of messages that the speaker does not want to express -- especially when the speaker is operating in an area of heightened First Amendment protection, such as a religious ritual." Dr. Thomas A. Farley, commissioner of the city's health department, claimed the consent requirement was "lawful, appropriate and necessary" in a September press release. "The city's highest obligation is to protect its children; therefore, it is important that parents know the risks associated with the practice," he said. Baby boys whose circumcisions likely involved the ritual between April 2006 and December 2011 had an estimated risk of contracting neonatal HSV-1 infection of 24.4 per 100,000 cases, 3.4 times greater than other infants, according to the health department. "There is no safe way to perform oral suction on any open wound in a newborn," Farley said. While Jews regularly practice circumcision as part of their religion, metzitzah b'peh is limited to a relatively small number of ultra-Orthodox Jews."

I'm pretty sure this is the reason that the smiley exists.

Wtf?!

I read the thread title as "ATTN: Jews - Stop sucking my dick."

I was then confused how sucking baby dick and the transmission of herps to it relates to EMCE...

on a somewhat related note, after SNL on Saturday WITN in greenville shows reruns of Law and Order from the early 00's. the one last weekend was about female circumcision. learned a lot of stuff I didn't care to know I prefer the ones about a murder or disappearance or something

4/8/2013 2:40:30 AM

It's not just Jews who do stuff like that. Back in the day, dude in Raleigh got arrested for child porn when the photo developer guy reported him for having his mouth on his baby's genitals in his pictures.

I learned a lot of life lessons from his plight.

4/8/2013 2:47:59 AM

well this was certainly unnecessary :3

4/8/2013 2:51:20 AM

^^ this is not about child porn or child sex, like that dude in raleigh.

this is about ultra-religious people doing it as part of a religious ritual which they believe (?) god ordains them to do.

this has been on the news before, like a year or so ago. keeps happening. i believe it was also on tww a while ago.

anyway, sick fuckers.

translation: "we don't want to tell parents that it could lead to health risks, and you can't make us, BECAUSE IT IS PART OF OUR RELIGION."

so, aside from being suck fuckers, they are also deceptive insidious fuckers.

god damn them, or as they would say, G_d damn them.

That's what I'm saying...the guy who was photographed was doing it as part of a religious ritual.

I'm unclear why they won't just use some kind of prophylactic for the ritual to prevent the spread herpes. I mean, they could still suck the blood out and discard it.

It seems like a pretty simple solution.

4/8/2013 7:47:46 AM

^ what religion was that guy part of, as you implied he wasn't jewish...?

and why was he arrested and charged with child porn? if the ultra-orthodox jews in NY can do it without getting arrested, why did this raleigh dude get arrested? was it his act that was against the law, or that fact that he photographed it?

either way, this perversion should be outlawed and violators should be punished.

Shit's gross, son.

4/8/2013 8:00:47 AM

Wtf. You god damn jews

4/8/2013 8:29:08 AM

^^^I don't remember what faith he was...I'm pretty sure it wasn't Judaism though cause I woulda known what that was. And I definitely don't recall the specific legal details. I was a kid, reading the paper and learning about tolerance, man. I mean, this was years ago back when people still got photos developed.

If I recall the religion in question, I'll be sure to post it here so we can mount our high horses and refer to its followers as perverts. Some of us will be doing it ironically, I guess.

Umm, no, unless all or most followers of the religion do the dirty deed. Among Jews, it is only a very very small minority of them who do it.

And yes, no need to mince words; if you do that, you are perverted.
