As someone from a culture where circumcision is a foreign concept, this discussion has always sounded ridiculous No doctor is going to convince a grown man without any relevant medical issues to lose his foreskin. All these cleanliness arguments sound crazy. Do animals get circumcised? Or do they shampoo and exfoliate themselves regularly down below?

What is really sick is that my grand son just went through this procedure. Why? Actually it was because my daughter thought that covered penises were ugly. My son had the procedure because my x wife wanted my son tonlook like dad. Really? Who the hell would know?

I have been trying to follow this site[ [kialo.com] ] for over a year because I see it as a means of having a full blown on-line balanced discussion without restrictions- something IMO the world needs. The restrictions turn out to be the complicated mechanism for getting pro and con points ratified and easily traceable. Can YOU sort out the quickest way round them as at the moment it is taking far too long and that is off -putting. I appreciate this site much m,ore at the moment.

I’m not sure if I can see the whole thing, but yes, what I can see is fine.
I would be reluctant to tell a person what to do with their own child, but am glad that medical opinion is changing as I have met men that felt they had lost out by being circumcised. I also hear that the procedure can be arranged as an adult, if the patient decides, so on the side of caution it can be done later, but can’t be undone!

I was an EKG tech through my 20's, sometimes called to do a tracing on infant boys in the 'circ room'. Have you seen the baby sized cookie-cutter restraint trays they are strapped into? I began to dread those calls, thinking it only reasonable that the pain, fear and stress of the procedure was the only cause of their little hearts flipping out.

When I had my own son I had researched the options and learned that we are a unique culture that performs this routinely - for profit. Additionally, studies pointed to uncircumcised men experiencing superior sexual health and pleasure, as well as their partners (which I can vouch for!). Cleanliness would only be an issue in someone with overall poor habits. Without hesitation, my son was left intact.

As it turned out, my son also developed phimosis at age 12, discovered from a constricted urinary tract that required noticeably frequent bathroom breaks at school. I was disappointed that he required a circumcision, but it was a relatively easy day surgery and recovery.

My daughter lives in New Zealand, where midwives routinely deliver babies and circumcision is typically never a consideration. I could not be more happy for my kiwi family and their healthy ways, never even a thought to cut my dear grandson!

I like my circumcised penis.

What is circumcision for? In areas of the world where there is not water enough to wash the male member as it should be, this practice has benefits. For most of us in this modern world today it has little or none. When it is done to women and young girls it is nothing but mutilation. A crime that should have severe punishments.

There was a time in America when male circumcision was pushed as a means of preventing boys from masturbation. Not only was god concerned with this but so were parents and a man named Kellogg. I do not believe, however, that he put foreskins in his cereal. Just a nasty rumor.

Male circumcision, female genital mutilation, and gender re-assignment need to be prohibited except when requested by and performed on informed, consenting adults.

I had a boyfriend who had to get circumcised at age 42, the opening was losing flexibility. No "day at the beach"! Nine stitches, and he had to carry a can of Freeze Spry at all times to stop any erections Immediately. Plus Owwwwww
