Ok then lets start cutting off baby's earlobes, they wont remember it and now their ears wont be so dirty! We might as well do the hands as well, they get pretty grubby as well. Foreskin is natural! Seriously out of the 17 boys in my class all of them were not circumcised except for one because he was islamic, and even he wishes he wasn't done. We sure as hell not embarrassed about it, and we agree any girl that does actually care about it isn't worth bothering with anyway. (this is in australia - I don't know what you yanks are like)

Lol your decision is a very immature statement. Disagreement is fine but rudeness is uncalled for- for one if you have any type of research or facts to back up your statement that it is more healthy for him to be circumcised I would like to look at it. The american academy of pediatrics stated that circumcision is not necessary. As for it being more painful for an adult to have it done, I don't think that is an accurate statement. An adult is put to sleep, and then given pain pills. An infant is given topical anesthetic(at least where my baby will be born) and no pills, only a tube of vasoline used to coat his penis until it heals. Also an infant's foreskin is attached to his penis with a membrane therefore making it necessary for the doctor to have to tear it away (painful by itself) before she can cut it. That is not needed for an adult whose foreskin is retractable . Plenty of adults have more painful surgeries when they are adults than circumcision ex:boobs and noses. And your comment about the couple you know shows how easy it is for a man to meet a women without being circumcised and for them to make the choice together. He had the procedure done and I am sure he is fine. As to remembering, my daughter had to have iv's needing to be replaced every 12 hrs, 4 spinal taps and wasn't allowed to nurse for hours on end when she was 3 -10 days old. Now she has no memory of it- so what it still makes me sad and I wish she never had to go through it. Your mention of memory also brings up the point that if it isn't painful for an infant, what is to remember or forget- see what I mean?

Hi. I would say that you should let your son decided to be circumcised or not. Its more of a personal thing anyways. I personally think that infant circumcision is wrong because the child has no say in the matter, and its his body. When hes old enough to make that decision its much better. I am 20 years old and I wish that my parents never had me circumcised. I will not have my children circumcised because I feel its taking their right to being intact away. Also, new studies show that circumcision does not really lower the risk of any stds at all.

Whats so embarrassing about not being circumcised? Ive not been circumcised and i,m very happy that I have a foreskin. I,m not religious and i,m happy that I was given a choice of having one or not, but as parents you should consider what is best for your child, leave your child to grow up and have the choice to have his parts snipped or not. It is cleaner tho if it was snipped off and he,ll have less chance of hygiene infections, I clean myself everyday and ive never had anything wrong with it. At the end of the day its not a big deal if your cut or uncut

Im 16 my mate got rippings for a while but thats only cos he blabbed it around and it suddenly became a big deal. The only thing that would make it bad is connetations with jewish religion and ignorance for the reasons why u might get circumcised. It should really be ur sons choice unless u feel strongly

It's scientifically proven that uncircumcised sex is better..

Do the circumcision. Don't let your son "decide" on his own later in life, because he won't get it done. No guy wants an operation, reguardless of how small the cut of the foreskin is, on his penis. Yes, coming form a guy who is circumsized and has had previous girlfriends who appreciate me being circumsized, yes do it. Your son will not regret it, nor give 2 sh*ts about it. It's less of a hassle for me. Not all girls like an uncircumsized penis, so save your son the trouble of embarrassment and get him circumsized.

Cmilah when he grows older and decides that he doesnt want it done, whats it got to do with you. If he wants it done then so be it. Leave him whole, remember its easier to cut it off then to try and grow it back. And when has a women ever been concerned about whether a man is circumsized or not and why is it a big deal if you have a foreskin? Whats the embarrassment? Does it matter where you live?

Your son will not get picked on. In all my years playing sports/gym class etc., i've never seen a guy get ripped on for his dick...That's just queer imho. I would have it done, I watch a lot of porno and those guys mostly aren't circumcized and that's who boys idolize. The foreskin would make the kid feel like a lesser species to the donkey-like men in the porno which he will inevitably watch by his early teens.

my husband and I just found out we were having a boy which brings up the issue of circumcision. My huband and I are both leaning towards not having it done, but I would like to hear from some uncircumsized men to make sure that sexually, everything is o.K. Meaning girls dont mind it etc. Also, were there any merciless teasing sessions in locker rooms growing up? How difficult is it to clean before the foreskin retracts. Also I am nervous about the condition where the foreskin doesn't retract and you end up with a circumcision anyways. Sorry for the stupid questions but I do not personally know of any adult males that are uncircumsized that I can ask. Thanks

hi I am amrrid toa jewish girl and beofre me she was with only three gusy who were circumsised and im the first guy she has been with uncircumsised and she tells me she enjoys sexually more witha uncircumsised man. Also as fer feelign the pleasure of a hand job and all is diffrent when it coems with the skin having tio move all the way up and down and creates more senstaiona dn things liek clong strokes during intercourse are really enjayable. Ppl shud nto eb feelign bad wheteher they r circumsised or not but w ehave also managed to make sure our boy isnt cos my wife felt we shud lkeave him liek his father heheee. All the best and see wat u feel uncircumsised is not wrong ast all nd if ure clean by nature u wont get any disesase. I am damn happy with it and so is she and so will be he im sure

well that's ridiculous. Shows how ignorant that girl is. Fact...All males are born with a foreskin. What's so wrong about that? It's natural. Get over it.

As for me, i'm 16 and uncut. Some of my friends are immature and give me crap for it. It seriously doesn't bother me, just shows how retarded they are. They say it's gross, etc. How? It's not, it's natural, you're born with it. Should I be embarassed that I have fingers, arms, legs, nipples, feet (you get the idea)?

Reason why i'm not circumsized is because my family is european. Personally, i'm glad i'm not cut. God gave it to me, let it be.

Also, where in the bible does it say circumsizion is a go, I thought it was only in the jewish faith?

I work with children all day. As a teacher only one child had a problem. He would cry when he went pee. His mom told me about it. She said he was swollen, and she brought him to the doctor. Where they said he had an infection. They had to do the snip, and his mom wishes she had did it sooner. Stacy.. *what did you do?

Here and the uk and ireland it's the normal thing for men to be uncircumcised. It's completely natural to have a foreskin,. You're born with it are you not???? And it's certainly not dirty. The only reason it should be removed is if there is a medical reason to do so. It's so silly to remove a body part as a preventative measure!!! While you're at it maybe get his tonsils taken out in case they get infected. Lop off a few other body parts.... Why not...!! Any kind of surgical intervention like that should be the little guy's decision when he gets older.

It is totally unnecessary to circumsise! Ancient greeks had a severe law against circumsision (& they surely knew what they were doing :wink: ) it is mutilation and it is only necessary in phimosis cases.And even in these cases you can easily fix it with a dorsal slit not circumsision . Most men in the world aren't circumsized. At least give the boy a chance to decide for himself and get circumsized at an older age. Infant circumsision is also dangerous since the doctor "peels" away the skin from the head (causing a real mess :cry: ) the bible has nothing to do with circumsision in fact if you want to follow the rules of cristianity you must not circumsise your son (it was clearly stated by st.Paul) as far as sex goes have you ever heard of the term "latin lovers"? Well they are always intact!! :lol:

I'm not circumsized, and it didn't pose a problem for me. My parents just made me wash it in the shower every day. I'm 16 now, and believe it or not, you have more sexual pleasure if you are uncircumsized because the neves are not as desensitized. Don't circumsize.

Your subject is misleading. You weren't really asking a question, you just wanted to have an anti-circ rant. Nothing wrong with that, just be up-front about it.

Personal And Medical Grounds Posted: 06-20-06 03:49am


I am a 32 year old male, uncircumcised. I have never been made fun of about the state of my foreskin, and no woman I have ever been with has made any negative comment about my penis. I can attest - the head of the penis and the underside of the foreskin are very sensitive things - both integral to sexual feeling. I can't imagine -not- having a foreskin. And not just the foreskin is removed - depending on the doctor, some of the membrane below the head is removed as well, also very sensitive skin and important to sexual health. I have heard that non-jewish circumcision in america is a continuation of victorian practices, a way to keep men from masturbating. I (for one) have never had a problem with masturbation. According to studys I have read, and simple anecdote, I masturbate as frequently as every other man (circumsised or not), no more, no less. But the important question - is it more healthy to be circumcised? I have never had a problem with cleanliness. I have never had an infection or irritation. An important thing to consider is that a circumsied man, with desensitized head, is less likley to be willing to wear a condom - he's got less sensitivity to begin with. There is medical/academic evidence that circumcised men have a greater incidence of premature ejaculation. Some circumsisions lead to a condition where the penis cannot beecome completley erect without pain - a condition which requires further surgery to reverse. What if the doctor is not careful? Worse things can happen. Some statistics: 82% of the men in the world are not circumsised out of the worldwide total of 487 million circumcised men: 65% occur as muslim cultural circumcisions 15% occur in other countries 3% occur in other english speaking countries 17% occur in the u.S. There are alot of good websites I have found - http://www.Mothersagainstcirc .Org/ h ttp://www.Cirp.Org/ http://www.Cirp.Org /library/general/warren2/ http:/ /www.Doctorsopposingcircumcision.Org/doc/l inks.Html there is some very good information there if you are willing to look at it. It looks like even the very tradition-bound jewish community is questioning this practice. Http://www.C irp.Org/pages/cultural/bris_shalom.Html

No Circumcision Posted: 06-20-06 21:23pm


I have to agree with everyone that is against getting your child circumcised. As a 23 year old uncircumcised man I can tell you that there is nothing wrong with having what you were born with. Being made fun of? The people who would make fun of that are pathetic individuals who have issues with themselves. Unhealthy? It's natural, if anything being circumcised is unhealthy. You're penis has no protective layer. In addition, people who say it's dirtier are ignorant; nothing a little soap and water can't take care of, just like circumcised penises. And in closing, the overall sensation is more enjoyable for uncircumcised men. Many woman enjoy intercourse and oral sex more with the foreskin. In closing, one of my pet peeves is ignorant people. The fact that the usa is one of the only countries that still actively performs circumcisions is mind boggling. How arrogant the american people are as a whole. Sounds odd coming from an italian-american, but it's true. Let's put an end to these ignorant people by slowly getting rid of circumcisions, so that we can be normal like the rest of the world once more.
