Seriously though, having a hood is NICE! Y'all are missing out.
As for the scientific evidence, it's frankly all over the map, and for every study there's a refutation. And none of it is that compelling in the first place. If you want to fight STIs, use condoms (at very least 5000% more effective) if you want to promote hygene, use education (100% cheaper). The foreskin adds to sexual sensation (trust me on this one) but it's not by any means essential.
Some people have understandably strong reasons to stick to their guns on this one, I suppose I'm one of them. But rather than come up with endless excuses to justify our emotional beliefs...
I would urge Jonze to ask himself which course of action requires the least justification.

Like I said earlier people get passionate about this. Not the first time this subject has come up here. This is easily one of those things where personal feelings and cultural bias play a big part. But the science is fairly clear. No accredited scientific study has proven loss of sexual pleasure. Full studies of the results from many different accredited studies have shown a slight health benefit in urinary infections, many STDS and certain forms of cancer. None of these are tremendous improvements but taken together it does add up to a health benefit. Now, is that worth it? Well, it just depends on the parents.
