I'm on the fence, probably leaning more towards a yes.
It's a cultural practice held in quite major esteem by my own ethnic group, and a practice that seemingly doesn't yield particularly life altering changes. Studies are inconclusive as to any benefits or drawbacks. If it is studied more in depth and is found to significantly reduce sensitivity (which has been claimed but not proven beyond doubt) or something of the sort, probably not.
