HPV is rampant anyway, we've all been exposed whether we know it or not, males can't be tested for it (well, there's no approved tests, anyway, just some experimental off label use of existing tests), and the only tests that do exist for women are for a few of the high risk types. Just assume you'll have at least one variant for at least one year of your life, it's a safe bet.

In any case, there's a vaccine that covers the most common types associated with cervical cancer, and simply giving that to young women will do a hell of a lot more good than mutilating genitals. (Also, not shaving your junk is probably more effective, since transmission rates appear to be up now that we're collectively less hairy.)

As for HIV, studies seem to be mixed on that, so that's also a bit of a stretch.

Ooh, found one for you:



Protip: You have HPV.

I think it is a ridiculous practice :x

The first time I saw a "modified" willy I was like, oh, god, 33 years old ??? I was like

":wtf do I do with this :confused"

Seriously. Leave your kids junk alone. What next, gonna start modifying baby girls junk too

:x
 
Non-scientific poll of 3 girls I was having drinks with and two girls from the neighboring table:

4-1, circumcised is 'prettier' and therefore more likely to be orally pleasured. The 1 doesn't care either way. The others prefer circumcised.
 
Mite as well cut the kids balls off as well,tidy things up since your going to cut things off his dick..

if your're not a jew leave the kids dick alone.

Irish catholic women love my foreskin:twofinger
 
don't do it. it can be done later.

the ex wife and I had already decided against the procedure even before I saw this medieval torture device looking thing while touring the birth center all those years ago:

OK, simply by going by the title:
Circumcision. Is it necessary? - No.

You can live a full, fine life without getting snipped.

However- There are benefits. You must weigh these benefits with the costs.

Do some research. Make the decision that makes SENSE for YOUR family, Jeff.

Regards.
 
It's a highly personal choice, but I've seen an awful lot of kids requiring circumcision up to ages 5 or so because of medical issues. It's pretty traumatizing at that point.
 
Penis? repost.
Circumcision? repost.

we've been through this before.............
 
to amputate part of the baby's boy body just cause maybe possible it could get cancer. this would be like amputating the inner parts out of a girl baby just in-case maybe it could get cancer.

there is a reason for this part of the body. just teach the kid to keep clean.

never had the choice so not known about feelings of pleasure is any different.

i'm uncut. never had any females complain 1 word. a few have commented they like it better - tho one never really knows if thats the truth or they are just saying that.

i do know that some of my most sensitive areas, are exactly the areas that they cut ON, or remove completely during circumcision - so that would lead me to believe that being cut, you'd lose a lot of feeling.

so tell me all you cut guys - do you get A LOT of pleasure when a woman licks the tip tip of your junk? i wouldnt think so - as i can experience this simply by pulling the skin back and doing a um, test. but when the skin is relaxed (not pulled back) sensation at the tip is extreme to say the least.

i honestly feel really sorry for any guy that is cut - seems obvious to me that they are missing out - big time.

I'm cut, and yep, I *do* get a lot of pleasure from that kinda play...

However, I've never tried licking my own junk as an "um, test." ;)

If she's on point she'll invite the guest to a 3-way.
 
When my son was born, after much debate, the (now ex) wife and I decided to have it done. We waited a couple of weeks, to make sure there were no other medical issues with the kid, and I took him to the appointment. One of our conditions, since I was the one in favor of the procedure, was that I be in the room and witness the whole thing.

So the doctor puts him on the plastic outline table that Asphaultnaut posted a page back, and instead of strapping him down, hands the kid a lemon flavored sucker. Baby takes the sucker, pops it in his mouth, and being that he's two weeks old and has never tasted anything other than milk, is so overwhelmed and fascinated by the flavor of this thing that he didn't even notice the doctor deftly installing the circumcision apparatus and *bam* it was all done.

No painkillers or anything, and the worst reaction from the kid was a momentary :wtf and then back to business as usual.

/data point. YMMV
 
My boyfriend is uncircumcised, and he was very self-conscious about it during his teenage years. He even said he was considering having it done as an adult, and confided in me later that he thought I wouldn't want to be with him once I found out. Of course, once he realized I didn't care, it didn't bother him anymore :)

Perhaps centuries ago when the average person's standards of hygiene were questionable at best it was an issue. But nowadays I can't see it making a difference. I personally feel that it's an antiquated procedure that has no real benefits in today's society besides aesthetics. And even that is subjective, I myself (and a lot of other women I know) actually prefer it "au natural" :dunno
 
Like it's ever been hard to get a male to pay some extra attention to that area in the shower.

Sheesh.
