i'm not going to debate this, because I think everyone has the right to make their own choice in this area. But the reasons for circ are infection. Now, that could come sooner or later in life.


My really good friend didn't circ her son and his foreskin was terribly tight - to the point of not wanting to go to the bathroom for fear of the pain of pulling it back. She would have to bathe him in warm water to get him to very gently pull it back. When you are dealing with a 3-5 year old boy doing this, it might be fine, but the older he got, the harder it became.


I knew a guy in highschool who got his circ done then - due to a rip in the foreskin or something that became infected. He had sex before the whole thing healed up properly and had to have a much more invasive surgery.


Also...Did you know they don't knock you out for a circ no matter how old you are?


My bff worked in a nursing home for awhile and apparently men are getting circed all the time due to diaper issues and *gag* smegma issues with not being capable of keeping themselves clean.

Those are a few of the reasons I can think to do it. But, you know, whatever it's a personal choice. Wink


sorry ingi. Medical research doesn't agree with you. The risk of infection is no greater for an uncircumcised than a circumcised. The things you just mentioned could have happened just the same to someone who was circumcised. The issue there isn't foreskin it's hygiene. As far as the mother being unable to pull the foreskin back that's so rare it's laughable.

My husband had to have his redone when he was a teenager. Our son is having his done when he is born because my husband knows first-hand how painful it is to have it done later in life.

Well you can get an infection anywhere if u dont clean it properly, as long as a boy cleans himself right, there shouldnt be a problem. You wouldnt cut parts of a girl off just cos risk of infection through not washing properly so it shouldnt be done to a boy. Its just disgusting to put an innocent baby through that for no good reason. Yeh I know a *few* small amount compared to the whole population have problems with a tight foreskin and need to get circ done later, but so what? Thats like saying...Ok every baby should get their appendix out just incase they are one of the few who get an appendicits when they get older. Child abuse and I hope its illegal one day!

Ok im stopping now Cool

I actually saw a claim with a very old man that had to have the procedure done because he had an infection. It was really weird.

I think "child abuse" is extreme, but whatever. I'm not debating this a second time.

Yiizzererrp!!

Hahahaha, I mean think about it, this discussion is pointless. People have their views and opinions on it, and that's that.

I'm not gonna do it, but i'm not gonna judge anyone for doing it.

I don't believe in *many, many* things, but I don't hate the people that do it. I just don't agree. Ats all.

Kay, religion and politics are a huuuge no no!! And this is right up there with it.

Child abuse....Aaaaah, that's kind of harsh. Unecessary pain for an infant, yea.

If you can teach a boy to wipe his butt, you can teach him to clean his bird. Period.

I just had to make one last point.

Just because you teach them something, doesn't necessarily mean they will always do it.

Teaching a boy good hygeine is important regardless of the status of his foreskin. If someone is getting alot of infections, it's probably because he's lacking in the ability to properly take care of himself. That is a bigger issue than what his penis looks like.

Hahahahha we call those sh;t stains, "skid marks"!!! Hahahahahha....Like when someone skerts out in their car and it leaves tires marks!!

That sh;ts funny. You're right.

Baron has never had any problem with his foreskin. But I guess, like we've said, depends on how clean it stays. He cleans his everytime he pee's. (he'd sh00t me if he saw this!!!!!!!!!! Lmao!)

it wasn't really very laughable to her and her son. It was an agonizing time in their lives. But I don't doubt it's rareness.

why did he need his redone ?? Aww that thought terrifies me!! My poor baby!!! I feel bad that I had him circumsized to begin with, as ijsut read "how to raise a healthy child" and the book states it is completely unnecessary and incredibly painful. Sad
