No offense to any of my Jewish readers, especially my sister who is Jewish (though not Hasidic)... but I totally got the Eww willies when I read this:
Metzitzah b'peh ("suction by mouth") is a practice in Haredi and Hasidic circles in which, after removing the foreskin, the mohel will suck out the blood from the wound to clean it. The mohel spits the blood into a receptacle provided. Afterwards the circumcised penis is bandaged, and the brit considered complete.
And now I choose to share it with all of you. Aren't I kind?
