well in the Jewish religion I was taught in school that the biblical father Abraham got himself circumcised when he was 99 years old and he suffered a lot from it but since then boys were circumcised as babies because it wasn't as painful. It's done to Jewish boys when they're 8 days old, and it's tradition after Abraham did it who was commanded by god.
