Circumcision is legal here as deaths related to it are few and far between. About 60-70% of males may be circumcised, though the number is likely closer to 60%. The number of deaths related to circumcision here are not known conclusively as it is a very rare occurrence, both due to the skills of our doctors, and of our "healers" (people who can mend most wounds via magical intervention, usually cauterization. Yes, magic exists here, sorry if that offends some of you). The law has not clamped allows for circumcision, but urges parents not do it for aesthetics alone. Some parents opt for partial circumcisions to ensure the child has no complications with the foreskin, and also to ensure full removal is unnecessary. Female circumcision however is outright banned. Any use of it is considered child abuse, as a man can still feel considerable pleasure after circumcision, but a female can often be left with very limited pleasure, which is generally considered invasive against them.
"Take Fascism and remove the racism, ultra-nationalism, oppression, murder, and replace these things with proper civil rights and freedoms and what do you get? Us, a much stronger and more free nation than most."
"Tell me, is it still a 'revolution' or 'liberation' when you are killing our men, women, and children in front of us for not allowing themselves to be 'saved' by you? Call Communism and Democracy whatever you want, but to our people they're both the same thing; Oppression."
"You say manifest destiny, I say act of war. You're free to disagree with me, but I tend to make my arguments with a gun."
Since everyone does one of these: Impeach Democracy, Legalize Monarchy, Incompetent leadership is theft.

Due to the various negative side effects of male circumcision and near nonexistent pros associated with it, it is banned in Xinjie since 1997 with heavy punishment for parents and doctors who go with the procedure nonetheless. The Xin Lingtu government has become outspoken in it's disgust with the practice and has orchestrated various awareness campaigns to educate the population of Xinjie on the health risks circumcision poses. Backdoor circumcisions are rare and their rates are undocumented for obvious reasons.

Among citizens, there is 0% circumcision. Robots don't have any parts to circumcise.

The Carjack Bio-Analogous Modification Parts Company reports that about 10% of sets in its "Male Genital" series are sold in the "Cut" style. Surprisingly, 5% are sold in the "Circumcised Female" style. The latter is believed to be a reflection of a more-extreme version of the "It won't bother me at all now that I'm a robot, so I'll do it" mindset immigrants tend to have.

We hold no real opinion on the styles of Genital Sets immigrants buy, but the Carjack Company reminds all buyers that there are no returns accepted.

Biological stock produced in the cloning centers is always left uncircumcised. If we saw a need to alter the way the genitalia are formed, we'd change the Approved DNA Codec so it grew that way to begin with. We can't see ever making such a change. The original design spec is obviously fine, considering the fact that humans were extremely numerous when we arrived on Earth.

Circumcision is illegal here; however, it is done in secrecy for religious purposes and by doctors who feel it medically necessary.

Due to the Jewish population of Elysia (about 5% of the overall population) and the fact that it is actually a legitimate medical treatment it is fairly common. The opinion of the Kentarch of Medicine, Food, and Science was "Sure some say this is just a religious thing and serves no real purpose, and those people are very wrong." Thus circumcision percentage rates are probably in their 90%s

The practice is outlawed in Purpelia as it is a foreign religious ritual which is considered unpurpelian.
Purpelia does not reflect my actual world views. In fact, the vast majority of Purpelian cannon is meant to shock and thus deliberately insane. I just like playing with the idea of a country of madmen utterly convinced that everyone else are the barbarians. So play along or not but don't ever think it's for real.

It was historically common since circumcision was thought to have prevented or at least reduced masturbation. Thus, in 1900, about 78.2% of people were circumcised. However, it has declined, so while it is still legal, it is rare, with only about 15% getting it last year.

Due to Yaramaqui's large connection with Judaism, and very traditional but modern society, 97 - 99% of the Yaramaqui's men are circumcised due to the very, very prevalent custom of name and circumcising the child on the 8th day he was born. The Non-Religious Yaramaquese even due it for both cultural and health reasons.

Circumcision is an illegal practice with regards to persons under 18 except for genuine medical reasons, and anyone involved with forcing it upon a minor, regardless of sex, would face a considerable prison sentence. Those over the age of 18 may choose of their own volition to undergo circumcision, as long as they are not being pressured by any other person. As such, it is a very uncommon practice in Avaerilon, with even Jewish and Muslim communities starting to shun it. As such, under 1% of the total population is circumcised.

99.985% of Stettic males are circumcised eight days after birth, which is the custom. An attempt to outlaw male circumcision is illegal, as stated in the Right of Religion clause in the Stettic constitution.

Circumcision was made illegal in Wintanceastre in 1743; although historians believe it was not common prior to this. This law was passed, stating it was "foreign and barbaric" to practice. However, in 1983 the law was partially repealed. The 1983 Circumcision Act states that it is illegal to have infants circumcised but that anyone aged 14 and older, who has made the decision themselves, may be circumcised. The reason for this change is due to adult men experiencing painful erections due to their foreskin being deformed. Today, it is believed less than 1% of the population is circumcised.
