I honestly am pro-choice when it comes to circumcision. I can't see much wrong with it health wise there are tons of benefits as listed in the poll. As someone who ended up getting circumcised as a teenager I must say I'm pretty upset it wasn't done when I was a kid. My fore skin didn't grow when my you know what did. At around 13 I was bleeding constantly and went to the doctor. The doctor said that my for skin hadn't grown and essentially had prevented my thing from growing as a side effect. They had to cut the foreskin off immediately because it wouldn't stop bleeding.

So yah its even backed by my God that you should be circumcised and I was not. It was so painful I was out of school for almost a month. Peeing was insanely painful and so was walking.

In the end I know situations like this are rare. However infections and all kinds of things result from having the foreskin. It is for your own health that you should have it done. For those of us who end up with foreskin problems we would have much rather had the issue dealt with when we were babies.

Apparently you don't have half a brain. There are no medical benefits for circumcision. Anybody claiming that should try washing their penis once in a while. And yes, I understand circumcision was a necessity in your case.

 

Listen, all fun aside about holy dicks and super orgasms... denying the health benefits that accompany circumcision is like me denying that uncut dicks are more sensitive -sex is not more enjoyable.

That kind of mentality you have there is unattractive. You can wash your dick as much as you want but the foreskin still makes you more vulnerable to infection, disease etc, etc.I'm sure you can find scientific studies with just a few Google clicks.

I'm personally pro-choice, and I see the benefits of both sides of the argument. I just can't sit by and watch you call people half-brained and stupid just because they believe something  (benefits) that are actually proven. And there are even negatives ... so there's no reason to get all pissy. Argue points, don't shun them. You'll sound more respectable that way.

The problem is that you're (purposely or not) exaggerating these so-callled benefits. The 'benefits' of circumcision are so mild, that they're not really worth going through this procedure, if there is no real medical reason to do so (e.g. phymosis). But the real issue is having this procedure performed on infants for non-medical reasons, which is just wrong and cruel. An adult can choose to do whatever he wants with his own penis (including getting a circumcision for whatever reason), but no one has the right to force this (largely irreversible) procedure on an infant who doesn't require it.
