Casual reminder that many religious rules were just basic Hygiene practices from prehistoric times which were later absorbed into the local beliefs.
The whole “hygiene” and circumcision is a myth and a lie. Your foreskin has no bearing on your ability to wash your dick
It's not like there microbiology science existed thousands of years ago. It may have been a hygiene practice because people thought it was helpful. Bloodletting is BS as well and people thought it helped drain the body's poisons.
Bloodletting is therapeutic... for some very specific conditions. For example, hemochromatosis, where the body has too much iron, and there has been some preliminary study that blood donations are a way to reduce the amount of PFAS in blood.
But everyone has PFAS in their blood; not every male has (beyond normal) phimosis.
From the context it's 100% clear that I meant the medieval practice, before modern science.
I imagine the whole circumcision thing makes sense when you're wandering the desert for years and there's not a whole lot of water around, but other than that, yeah.
So blowjobs 3 times a day?
Not so long ago people would go weeks without washing their bodies, let alone in prehistoric times.
It does if it's tight. I couldn't wash it due to the extreme tightness. I don't agree with doing it for religious reasons, just saying your argument there is not without holes.
You are quite right. There is a tribe in East Africa which makes a hole on their lower lip and place a huge disk into it. It is theorised that the practice started to prevent lockjaw disease that may have been prevalent in the area eons ago. I am not sure how this prevents lockjaw but maybe for them it works.
