I take it your penis suffers from this condition.
LOL
I'll have to say, I'm in my fifties and this is the first time I've ever seen a (presumably) female call for penises to be more sensitive. Personally, no thanks to more sensitivity or more moving parts.

Nonsense.
It's genital mutilation, it's barbaric, and makes as much sense - in this day and age - as doping up kids with Ritalin. Try warm water and soap, next time. Your son will thank your dead ass when he reaches a certain age and he'll need Viagra to sustain an erection, because his private parts are no longer naturally sensitive.

On the other hand, at least he won't get complaints from women that he busts too fast. Popping a viagra and going for 4 hours sounds like a lot more fun.

It's like removing the labia and the clitoral hood on a woman and you know that that would help prevent bacterial infections, fungus and viral infections so why not do that?

It's fucking genital mutilation and if you disagree you are in the wrong field, you shouldn't be in that field and cheer on unneccessary and harmful procedures.

You can't just remove 50% of the nerve endings in the penis while making the glans so insensitive that it doesn't physically hurt to have it chafe against fabric and not call that loss of natural bodyfunctions... not if you are a sane human being.

I have a fully functioning penis, i pity you and your son, you will never know what sex really feels like.

Yes, genital mutilation is about that...

I'd bet you anything you want that if it wasn't a recommended procedure in the bible, NO ONE would have thought up the idea of cutting away a significant part of a male childs genitalia so whether you like it or not, it's a religious procedure to this very day.

Yes, son, around 4000 years ago it was thought up and if it hadn't been thought up back then and put in the Bible it would never have become a standard procedure (which it still isn't except in Israel for religious reasons and in the US for unknown reasons).

Cutting off 50% and leaving the rest so numb that it's dull to a touch is just stupid.

If it's for medical reasons and NOT from the religious texts, then why wouldn't we cut off the inner labia and the clitoral hood of women? It'd be of MUCH greater benefit to prevent infections and fungus in women than removing the foreskin is in men... I'll tell you why, because it's not in the Bible.

It's clear that any tearing of any skin can cause infections but that's not a good reason to remove such an incredibly large part of an organ, it's basically like removing the outer ear to prevent ear infections, sure, the function will be diminished but you'll have less risk of ear infections, why don't we do that? It's not in the Bible.

Funny but I and the other males in my family quite enjoy ourselves. We've never had any problems. Oh, direct sensory measurements support that too. Now as far as "cheering on" I don't advise others to do it or not. I keep my hands out of your pants.

In other words no harm has proven to come from this and we really don't care what you or others think. Its none of your or SFs business. As "they" say- whatever.

Female genital mutilation, also known as female circumcision, is the removal of external genitalia to limit sexual activity. It can cause prolonged bleeding, infection, infertility and death.

If you're wondering, the reason it limits sexual activity is because it removes pretty much all of the sexual stimulation nerves on women, though this is apparently dependent on the "level" of cutting that's done. Other than that, it has a negative effect on women's health, as opposed to a positive effect on men's health.

In other words, you've said nothing that remotely presents itself as a correct argument. So, not only do you have an ugly penis, but you're also a fool; it's a good thing both of those increase the chances that you will be eliminated from the gene pool :hmm:

"Most primates have spine-filled penises to allow a male to penetrate through dried penis secretions of other males to increase the chance of fertilization when mating with females with multiple partners."

I'm feeling a little nauseous right now - I should not have read that :(.
EEEWWW!

Reminds me of that chick that cried rape on that North Carolina swell sport, somehow. :(

In reality nerve endings do matter, why don't you go to med school and read up on human biology.

It's complete and utter bullshit and anyone who is not a complete moron when it comes to biology knows that cutting off nerve endings and making skin thicker WILL reduce sensory stimulation, there is nothing to discuss on the matter.

I can't pull my foreskin back and walk around like that because my glans is so sensitive it HURTS to do that, you can, now take a wild guess if circumsicion desensitizes your glans.

Ever tried to masturbate with lotion? I couldn't do that since my skin is to coarse for my glans if i pull my foreskin back, it gets overstimulated but i suppose that has nothing to do with being more sensitive either?

Real world says you don't have a fucking clue, biology says you don't have a fucking clue.

Try this, don't touch your glans and masturbate, i can do that since i have the other 50% of the nerve endings on my shaft as i pull the foreskin back.

But be happy, you got your sons penis mutilated because 4000 years ago some guy thought it would be a good idea and so made it a requirement mandated by God.

You are an idiot.

I didn't describe common sectual female circumsicion, i described a form that would equal male circumsicion and if practiced in a medical facility would have benefits for a woman.

Now shut the fuck up and go away until you learn how to read.

My penis is the last area on my body I'd want to make more sensitive. Sex is already almost too delicious to bear.

I'm the opposite, too much pleasure is an unknown dilemma to me, if it can be even more pleasurable, i'm not going to turn that down.

But to each his own i suppose.

PS. I'm done wasting my time with proving you wrong; you're obviously incapable of accepting truths.

I love when you go on a rant. I have an idea. Why don't you go on a tirade with the various medical societies around the world and call them morons because to them it's not as clear as you make it.

Bitch at these people for example. Tell them to go to medical school. Maybe you can say they are part of the Medical Industrial Complex where the "truth" isn't being told about this, and of course remember that vaccinations cause autism.

When you change their mind, come back and yell some more. As for me, I'm laughing :p

I guess San Francisco has nothing better to spend its time on than telling others how to live. Keep your hands off my foreskin you fascists!

Good for San Francisco. They are banning involuntary genital mutilation. Glenn, in your view should involuntary infant female circumcision also be legal in the United States? What's wrong with letting people to make those kinds of decisions for themselves at age 18?

Government needs to get the hell out of peoples religious beliefs!

Is it possible that people's filthy religious beliefs need to get the hell off of infants' bodies? Would you support the legality of a religious belief that resulted in the permanent mutilation of an infant?

The link doesn't work so I googled it and if you read the stories you find that... Umm... SF isn't trying to ban circumcision. There is ONE nutjob trying to get enough signatures to put the issue up for a vote in the next election. In two months he has only managed to collect about 3500 sigs... he still has another 3500+/- to go... in a city with millions of people. If you can't get 7100+ people in a city the size of SF to sign a petition to get something on the ballot in two months...

But yeah... this isn't anything pending before the city council.

I guess it just goes to show how little power and value males have in our society. For a woman the paradigm is, "Her body, her choice." For a man it's, "Submit to genital mutilation, you worthless Y-chromosome holder."
