From Boys to Men

I'm a very curious person and I have the need to figure out the answer to something that I don't know. Last week in my Spanish class my professor mentioned the work circumcision. I know a very awkward topic for my blog but that was my only inspiration this week. Now since I am a Biology major and from previous reference I had an idea of what it meant but not in detail. Nonetheless, a semi adequate answer did not fulfill my thirst for a fully detailed answer. Of course, I decided to ask my boyfriend exactly what the process was considering he is a guy, it really didn't clarify anything I still had a lot of questions. My main question was why? I decided to look for my answer on Google Scholar. I found that if a boy is circumcised when he is little it will prevent a urinary tract infection and they also have a higher heart rate. Therefore, being circumcised is a good thing for boys so they can grow up to be a very healthy man.
