I didn't say it was the single cause, but it is certainly at least a contributor to some of that percentage of ED in the US.

As for China, much of that country doesn't get anything close to proper nutrition, which what your body takes in as fuel does directly relate to sex drive. They also have more illness outbreaks than the United States. So I don't think its a good comparison.
I don't think it's a great comparison either and I couldn't find any sort of list online of a bunch of different countries and their respective ED rates. I just used that to illustrate that circumcision has a relatively minor effect on ED (if at all, seems more of a case by case basis that could easily be explained by something other than circumcision) and that all the things you listed are much more responsible.

Look, at the end of the day, if there's even a good chance that circ will reduce pleasure or severely complicate a male, it obviously shouldn't be forced on an unconsenting child. Common courtesy to your fellow human.

I'm leaving it at that.
Yay something we agree on.
