*Rite of Passage is a ritual that marks a change in a person's social or sexual status. Rites of passage are often ceremonies surrounding events such as childbirth, menarche or other milestones within puberty, coming of age, marriage, weddings, and death.
Pagtutuli or circumcision is a Filipino traditional rite of passage from pubescence to manhood. It involves the removal of the foreskin from the male genitalia. The practice adheres to either or both the religious and cultural principles of the Philippines. A Filipino summer ritual, pagtutuli is usually done during the Lenten Season. The term “circumcision” was derived from the Latin circum which means “around” and cædere, meaning “to cut”.
