COMPLETELY untrue.

having a forskin actually HELPS the aiming factor.

How would you know? :confused:

If your penis gets erect, forskin automatically slids back.

Aiming factor when forskin factor slids back is absolutely horrible.

if forskin is on, aiming is very easy.

Request denied. Just leave the thread. :roll:

SHUT UP I WANT TO FIGHT ABOUT A COMPLETELY POINTLESS TOPIC FOR THE NTH TIME.

Plus I'm sure there are better places for you to talk about penises than a COMPUTER FORUM, like AOL chat for example.

You people act like its the most barbaric and inhumane thing you can do to a baby, give me a fucking break please, it's you guys who start this arguement by saying it's a ridiculous ritual with no benefit. Most of you are probably just trying to defend the fact that you never had one to combat the fact that it makes your wang looks like an alien finger. Sorry CR but it had to be said.

From that logic you could say you aim worse because you are erect.

There are lots of n00bs here who haven't been part of this discussion.

It is our job to educate them since the schools are doing such a crappy job at that.

Yes, it's been discussed to death. Yes, it will continue to be discussed to death. If it upsets you so much maybe you could just not click on any thread with the word penis or circumcision in the title.

In short, request denied. :p

Very true. Most couples seem to rely on their OB for their primary circumcision info. Problem is that the OB typically knows about as much about circumcision as their patients, that is to say nothing at all. Oh, they know how to do them "properly", but that's it.

Ah, I love this thread.

Give it fifty years, nobody will be circumcised in America anymore.

I'm just trying to figure out the appeal.

There must be some sort of LOGICAL reasoning behind doing it. I just haven't fouind it yet.

To me it sounds completely illogical to do it.

There is no logic. Just a boatload of medical myths and cultural/religious baggage.

100% myth.

It's only done for religious reasons. All it really does is reduce the enjoyment of sex due to damaged nerve endings and put your baby through un-needed pain.

I have a 9 month old. We researched it and did not do it, for the exact reasons above!

And now ure kid will be embarassed to take his pants off in front of a chick
GJ

Doubtful, if I raise him to be confident with himself. Besides, a chick who requires a man to have surgery in order to have sex with her is psycho.

Actually, it did not come that way, unless you are a crazy freak of nature. Soon after it came naturally, your parents decided it was best to take off a piece of your penis.

Oh please, it's no myth that circumcision is more hygenic then keeping the skin.

I dunno, putting the raw circumcision wound in a poopy diaper doesn't sound too hygenic to me.

in porn you see all these circumsised guys and if you look closely you can almost always see circumcison damage. it's so much the cultural norm to have mutilated genitals no one thinks twice about it i guess.

There's a slightly higher risk of penile carcinoma in uncirc'ed people but otherwise it's more of a cultural thing.

One really gross anecdote, there was this one guy who was having surgery on his arm and the nurses were putting in a catheter into his bladder for the procedure. Now this guy was a paraplegic and couldnt take care of himself so when there tried to retract his foreskin it was stuck. They called a urologist in, and he yanked back on the foreskin and about 2 tablespoons of the worst smelling cheese came out. It was nearly vomit inducing.
