Circumcision in Australia

[LimeSlice]

TBH so did I Trill.

I did note though that the rates in the new generation are much lower than what they were.


Age Birthyear* Circumcised Non-Circumcised
50-59 1941-1952 65.68% 34.32%
40-49 1951-1962 66.75% 33.25%
30-39 1961-1972 63.96% 36.04%
20-29 1971-1982 49.66% 50.34%
16-19 1982-1986 31.64% 68.36%

*There is some uncertainty about the exact birthyear due to the
extended time over which the study was conducted. This results
in some overlap in the calculated birthyear.

I thought that was interesting though - boys who will now be coming of age are 2/3 NOT circumcised.

ETA: Which if we follow history, will indicate that this population will also pass that on to their children - so the percentage of intact boys will continue to grow.
