Like Hotbid pointed out. This blog was about a discussion of circumcision. If you have nothing to add to the discussion. Simply Don't Post!. I never wanted this to turn into a huge flame war. I simply want to see different views on the procedure. Also, those people who keep saying it's irrelevant we are talking about dicks. We're not, we are talking about the procedure and it's implications/the ethics of it.

I got circumcised at 16... lemme tell you it was a bitch. They put little stitches on my peepee, about 8 of them. At least 5 got caught on my (then) nice boxers, at which point every little movement of my pants would tug on it in the WORST way possible. Yeah... imagine making your own penis sleeve out of (shitty school) toilet paper and tape just so it didn't happen. I prefer being like this than not though. It definitely looks nicer than having a flappy lil shit hanging off the end. Best part about it, though, is that I don't have to peel the foreskin back and take all the dirt and shit out from the head of my pee pee anymore.

That aside, female circumcision is just lol, stupid at best. I can't do anything about it, but I know it's just straight fucked up. Male circumcision... I really don't see how it's an issue. My mom walked into my room one day and was like "hey, you're getting circumcised this weekend." First thing I thought of was South Park: "we're just going to cut off a bit of his wee wee to make it look bigger." Just groaned in agreement and went back to what i was doing.

Don't have a valid ethical standpoint or scientific evidence, but as someone who's seen both sides I figured I could contribute. Figured wrong but I spent a good 2 minutes typing this >.>

I used to know a guy who was obsessed with this topic. He was trying to grow his back.

I'm not joking either.

Meh, I had it done as a baby so I can't really say if it hurt or not. Really don't see if it was necessary or not with condoms so common now. As long as people aren't complete idiots, it really shouldn't matter that they're not circumcised.

Though I think calling it mutilation is a bit of a stretch...

I think that this was relevant news to the issue:

http://www.foregen.org/

Yes, you may be able to soon have your foreskin regenerated. What was stolen at birth for the profit of a doctor will probably be able to be bought back for the profit of biomedical companies in the near future.

PS:
Circumcision does indeed significantly reduce penis sensitivity:

This has always been glaringly obvious to me. It is practically unthinkable for my uncircumsized self to wear underwear whilst my foreskin is drawn back. It's too sensitive and very uncomfortable. But circumsized men think nothing of it.

This reason alone is why I've always been against circumscion (even if it's never been scientifically qualified)

It's a religious tradition born out of a need for cleanliness in a time where regular bathing was not the norm.
Regardless of its secondary effects on sexual sensitivity, I'm against it purely because it's an archaic and outdated tradition with no basis in modern medical science. An expensive, scarring and permanent procedure can be circumvented (no pun intended) with a $2 bar of soap.

I was circumcised on birth. I got no complaints.
But then again, I have no idea how it's like to not be circumcised

Apparently circumcision was popularised to fight masturbation.

Tell me this, I don't want to watch Penn & Teller but does it have something to do with your skin ripping a bit and forming scabs?

It removes sensitivity (a lot according to the 2007 study), it also makes it necessary for you to have lubricant on hand (haha).

Circumcision arguments are incredibly pointless. Everyone will just argue for how their own penises are. It isn't like someone will go and say "You're right, my penis is the inferior shape."

But regardless, it sparks debates and discussion.

Also, we're all talking about dicks.



I'm in the U.S. and am self-conscious about it sometimes because I am in the minority. Either way your parents make a decision for you about it, I'm not sure what I'd do if I had a son. I can't imagine getting it done now, I love my penis, but it would be something to not stress about since some girls are against the uncut thing but no one is against the cut "look." Here, at least.
