    Alright alright. I'm having foreskin envy >

    • well this settles it then.
      besides having a hood means you can pull it back, so you can go incognito or show your eye, no contest

    I must have had a good chop, because I have no complaints. My brother wasn't allowed, because only the firstborn gets the right? Religion is weird.

    So "God" made us at his own image, is he circumcised?
    Or did he made a mistake?
    Like sorry guys, i've made a mistake while creating you, so could you cut that foreskin please, sorry for the inconvenience.

    From 2001... Man Sues For Loss of Foreskin

    https://abcnews.go.com/GMA/story…

    Given the choice, William Stowell says he would have kept his foreskin.

    Since the choice was made for him, he is suing the hospital where he was born and circumcised for depriving him of "the pleasure of natural, normal sexual intercourse."

    Stowell says his sex life would be much better if he had been allowed to keep his foreskin — the loose fold of skin that covers the tip of the penis. But his mother denied that to him when she signed a circumcision consent form in the maternity ward where she gave birth; she says now that it was a mistake.

    • Hope he cashes in :)Gnash
    • Interesting, but who cares about plaintiffs. Headline might as well be "Man argues that money will somehow help him get over his circumcision"nb
    • This was settled privately over a decade ago.monospaced
    • If women were forced to undergo general mutilation to reduce pleasure under the guise of religion or cleanliness or some buklshit there would be riots_niko
    • Feminists would lose their shit and rightfully so. So why do we let boys suffer? Barbaric_niko
    • No evidence that it reduces pleasure. Mild health benefitsnb
    • Not true people who have been circumcised later in life report a great reduction in pleasure_niko
    • I certainly am not suffering. Neither are most circumcised men.monospaced

    I don't think there will be a consensus on the issue so I'll leave this here.

    How the rest of the world sees them.

    President of Germany’s Paediatric Society:

    “There is no reason from a medical point of view to remove an intact foreskin from underage boys or boys unable to give consent. ... The statement from the AAP ... has been graded by almost all other paediatric societies and associations worldwide as being scientifically untenable.”

    one thing my friend who has a little boy and had him circumcised said to me kinda made sense. her husband is circumcised btw.

    she said the only reason she did it was because she wanted her boy to be able to look at his dad and see the same thing.

    not sure if anyone has mentioned this but there is a higher risk of acquiring papiloma virus and infecting your partner in the future.

    that said. i cringe at the idea of mutilating my baby. and highly doubt no guy in their right mind will decide to do so on their own. so good luck with that georges. don't let tradition get in the way of what you want for your child.

    • I can say without any shadow of a doubt that I've never seen my dad's bits. Nor would I show any son of mine my own bits.Continuity
    • So this whole, 'wants kid to see his willy is the same as daddy's' argument doesn't wash. At all.Continuity
    • ok that's fair, but you know there are cultures that shower with their kids. i remember showering with my mom, no big deal. boys do so with their dads sometimes too.sea_sea
    • My dad didn't cut me despite his being done. I didn't understand as a kid but now I'm much happier.cotton
    • boys do so with their dads sometimes too.sea_sea

    • Yes, we've now learnt I've never seen my dad's bits. ¬_¬Continuity

    • Not me, that's for sure. Anyway, I otherwise look just like him, I don't need to confirm how far the resemblance goes.Continuity

    It is a tradition that maybe made sense four thousand years ago in a middle-eastern desert where hygiene was poor and water to wash your cock daily scarce but in today's west it is just an unnecessary trauma/mutilation passed from father to son.

    Most people in Europe (where nobody sane even considers doing it) don't even know it is so commonly performed in the US and usually are horrified when they hear about it—unless I don't know something.

    In the end most American men say it's practical and in the grand scheme of things harmless, but for fuck's sake, give me one good reason to do this to your newborn child!

    Wikipedia:
    "infant circumcision rates in the United States holds that 30% of newborn American boys were being circumcised in 1900, 55% in 1925, and 72% in 1950."

    One could only imagine what sort money this has been for the medical industry...

    Oh wait:
    "Circumcision is not covered by health insurance as it is not a medically necessary procedure so you will have to pay for the full cost yourself out of pocket. Circumcision with general anesthesia should cost between $2000 and $3000. This includes the doctor performing the procedure and the anesthesiologist. Circumcision of adults is less expensive, as adults can opt to have only local anesthesia."

    also...

    "Circumcision is extremely rare in the world outside the United States, and even within the United States, the circumcision rate has dropped by more than half. In 1980 over 80% of newborns in the United States were circumcised while in 2007 less than 40% of infants were circumcised."

    2 million boys born a year, times $2K: it is a potential 4 billion dollar market. If you err... cap it, that is.

    There is also a trend where circumcised men are re-stretching out their foreskins, and returning some of the sensitivity and pleasure that gets lost with circumcision.
