CIRCUMCISION: GOOD OR BAD?

Yes the man is half-naked; I'm not sure you guys are mature enough to deal with that, but I seriously hope so.

All of you, grow up. Including staff. Somebody wanted to have a serious discussion where people might chip in, and lo and behold, he got a few serious responses! I guess we can mock somebody for posting a topic about penises but not for posting a topic where you're sucking somebody's penis for helping with your game

If we don't circumcise our kids, they are at a great risk for infection. Like UTI, gonorrhea, inflamed urethra's (that tube inside the penis that transfers urine) and many more. When a male is not circumcised you can get really nasty growths under the skin (which wont be there if one is circumcised.) Its a much more tedious and difficult task to handle such issues if not circumcised. Not bashing you for what you believe, but really. Its much better (health wise) to get circumcised.

OVERSHARE INCOMING

I have a foreskin and I have never once had any of these problems. In fact I've had plenty of STDs due to my adult line of work but none of them were ever in/on my penis. You know why? Because

Cleaning your penis on a semi-regular basis will prevent most health issues and it is not difficult to do.

10 extra seconds in the shower. I really love the idea that uncircumsized penises are disease-magnets but it's just factually incorrect. It kind of reminds me of the VACCINES CAUSE AUTISM! people.

I agree that random topics are cool, but this one is too weird.

Then ignore it and go about your day, I don't understand what is so difficult about this concept for people

Having a vagina is wonderful. Did you know they're for the most part self cleaning?

I fucking love you

Cause I feel like posting my thoughts. I'm free to do so as this was posted in public space. I don't understand what is so difficult about that to understand. I'm not being rude so follow your own advice and ignore what I have to say :)

...I .....was at one point..... circumcised.
There I said it.
What's all this about loss of sensation? I've never had any problems.

I don't consider my penis mutilated any more than I consider my mandibles mutilated (my wisdom teeth were removed) or my esophagus mutilated (tonsils).

I am genuinely shocked at the level of circumcision hate on display here. I had literally no idea this was such a controversial issue.

I'm just glad I got it done before I was old enough to remember it. Apparently it's one of the worst pains ever.

Pretty much exactly this.

wait WHAT

HEY I KNOW THAT GUY
I should watch more of his stuff; on top of being half naked (mrowr~), he seems to have interesting things to say!
(also yup pretty much summed up my feelings on the issue. Should be owner of penis' choice, hygiene isn't a good reason to mutilate genitals, Canadian streets are indeed lined with foreskins. Where do you think yours go?)

You totally should, he's great. He's a bit too sappy at times for me, but still highly enjoyable. His blog is breaktheillusion.com.

I had my son circumcised. I am also circumcised. We all have our reasons and positions and while it is a difficult choice and important, it is not as big a deal as some of you make it out to be.

How many of you saw a picture of his penis (or anybody else's) in his / her head after reading these type of comments? hahaha this topic get more and more explicit / personal as it goes on.

Oh yeah, I have a question... am I at risk of being banned if I post an episode of Penn & Teller here? the one about circumcision? a part of it will have a guy showing his foreskin. I just have to ask, really... :D

Cause I feel like posting my thoughts opening my mouth and being entitled to whatever falls out even if it is entirely pointless and adds nothing to the conversation

I don't either, this is an extremist exaggeration used to make a point, similar to someone who can only post in absolutes ("a more incorrect post was never written and I do not even need to begin to explain why" "this is the most useless post ever" etc.) and you're totally justified in your decision/s seeing as you clearly have a logical grasp on the situation.
