The bioethics of neonatal circumcision are controversial within practicing cultures. Male circumcision involves the excision of genital tissue from the human body.
Some studies indicate that the foreskin and frenulum perform certain physiological functions among the men tested*" target="_blank" >[http://www.circs.org/library/schoen3/index.html (See medical analysis of circumcision)
Because the tissues, once excised, cannot be entirely replaced, many question the appropriateness of their removal in childhood. Non-therapeutic neonatal circumcision is sometimes performed exclusively for social or cultural reasons. Such practices and differing views are widespread in the United States.
