Circumcision. Is it necessary?

Should I circumsize my child?

I suppose if I was blinded later in life, I'd have an idea of what it was like to see.

If I was born blind, I'm not so sure I'd really know.

But if there is a difference, it must have some impact, which I'd suspect someone to be happy about, one way or the other.
 
Been using the same password since I registered back in 2008 so finally changed it just now. Disabled MS Authenticator though because I’ve found it irritating when used for other applications with it not working half the time.

I thought I might get prompted to use a passkey also when changing my password but didn’t. Use my fingerprint for other apps and would be convenient for barf login also if that was an option.
That's beyond my paygrade, but I'll pass it on.
 
When you choose whether or not to have your son circumcizer, you're making choices for them that will impact them for the rest of their life.

If you don't consider all aspects of that decision and learn all factors, then you're doing them a disservice. They will encounter those situations, so the need to be considered.

You’re telling us that you make or have made decisions about your children based on their future sexual experiences?
 
We suspect that dutch85's account was compromised and we locked / banned the account.

2FA would have likely prevented this.

So his account privileges were circumcized for good?

Weird how people rationalize the barbaric practice of genital mutilation

That's pushing it a bit...I mean, it's just a perma haircut for the Gram.

It is interesting. I'm not religious in any way, and neither were my parents... yet the practice has continued, down to and including my son.
I never really thought about it... until I was enlightened by barf.
 
Again, the MAN, MSM and religion trying to divide us by trying to paint a picture in black and white and asking us to choose sides

Why do you have to be either foreskin or against skin?

I am skin apatheist
 

kinda surprised women would not be able to tell the difference, honestly


:confused

You’ve got to be kidding with that question. It’s a brutal practice and should be avoided at all costs. No, no, no.

Males have been born with foreskins for many tens of thousands of years. Cutting it off is the practice of religious zealots and completely ignorant people. Just don’t. Please.

And my parents circumcised me. I really wish they hadn’t.

If your child, as an adult, wants to cut off part of his penis, that is on him. Until then,NO.

Would you cut off your son’s thumbs because someday he might get cancer?
 
Maybe an update to the tradition is needed, like say....keep the skin ring that's taken (the lego "hair") and when it's time for a male to ask a girls father for permission to marry their daughter, he does so by offering up the hermetically sealed skin ring from his circumcision.
 
Our son wasn't circumcised at birth but had to be "cut" when he was about 10 years old. His foreskin didn't retract enough to urinate properly and he was getting UTI's.
That fixed it.

I'm against it in principle but it's part of the Judaic and Islamic religions. Funny how Jews and Muslims generally don't see eye to eye on a lot but this is an exception.
 
Just please don’t. It removes part of the penis that can provide pleasure. And if you learn how to keep your penis clean, there is next to no reason he will get infections. All the health rationalizations is just that. They are finding excuses to cut off a part of your body. No, no, no.

And someday your son will thank you for leaving him intact.
 
Less than 50% of US males are now circumcised. And that rate continues to drop.

Let him make that decision when he is an adult. Leave him as he was born.
