An open-ended community for asking and answering various questions! Permissive of asks, AMAs, and OOTLs (out-of-the-loop) alike.

In the absence of flairs, questions requesting more thought-out answers can be marked by putting [SERIOUS] in the title.

It seems odd to me that it's not banned outside of medically necessary situations or for when the person has informed consent.

I feel that's a lot more common in the USA than in other countries. Google says in Germany where I live it's 10%. And worldwide it's 30% and in the USA it is 70%. I mean there are worse things out there but to me it is just weird to mess with infants like that.
