Now that you say this someone will pop in the thread claiming to have had a botched circumcision, and now half their penis is , and half isn't. He will set the record straight =)


Well, somebody who had phimosys can come and tell how is it like before and after the cut.
And then do you know what happens all of a sudden? Trumpets!!

Looks like a pretty bias op for non-circumcision.

I'm circumcised, by choice, and I'd never want to go back to my ant eater.

It is genital mutilation and child abuse, no matter how you look at it. It should be illegal to circumcise anyone under 18. End of story.

You are probably right, but... If he had a Botched circumcision, the little guy would not be in tip-top shape i'd imagine, so whatever he would say, it's still invalid. Or maybe not, idk...

Wait what? I thought circumcision was widely recognized as being unnecessary and stupid?

Is it not? So many people in here from nonbackwater countries being circumsized? Or are you joking...

Am I wrong?

I was circumcised when I was a baby because I had problems in the penis and I had surgery. I have no "inferiority feeling" (why would I anyways), and I feel pretty good when I'm with a girl.


How do you know you dont have "inferiority feelings"?

How do you know you're retarded and everyone's been playing along with it to make you feel good?
You don't, but it's a pretty safe assumption to make.

1: I don't remember my circumcision
2: I'm glad i'm circumcised
3: It's done in a humane way
4: It's more beneficial than having nothing done, easier to maintain good hygiene etc.
5: My penis is still plenty sensitive, and if anything it makes guys last longer during sex, sooooo the sensitivity argument is a little invalid.

When I read this article I was expect something about circumcision listing what it is, and why it's done. Leaving people to talk about it themselves, but instead you go on ranting about how circumcision is evil and has no use. Notice how none, or few, men who are circumcised go on ranting about how you should be. But alot of uncircumcised men go on about how it's evil.
I thought I was indecisive, but now I'm not to sure.

Just a question on number 4 there... Would it be easier to clean your head if you did not have any ears as well then?

Well, you should actually feel better when you're with a girl LOL. Besides, this kind of post just kind of screams inferiority!

Following your logic all women should cut off their breasts to eliminate breast cancer


and everyone should be forced into a preemptive appendectomy
That wasn't any act of God. That was an act of pure human fuckery.

I think that's the general point of view in Western Europe at least. Cultural values differ though. It seems some Americans find it more aesthetically pleasing and then there are of course religious reasons for some people. Also there are some minor points in favor of circumcision (such as better default cleanliness), but from my knowledge if you ignore aesthetics and religion most evidence suggests we should avoid it.

It should be illegal to circumcise anyone OVER 18. Man, you know how would it hurt when the thing is awake just after the surgery? I have shivers only thinking about it .

Can we close this horrible thread now? And just to make it clear, I'm not circumcised, and I don't feel one is better or worse then the other. Hardly anyone remembers their circumcision in the first place. Next up is a thread on baptism being evil because it makes babies cry.

I hope it's not weird, cause I've thought the same thing too. It's how I knew what to say :3
Same goes for being crazy. A crazy person has no idea that they are, right? Freaks me out thinking about it o.O
