Circumcision

[ExpCharlee]

I’ve always thought circumcision was really weird. Why chop up your child’s genitals? You can’t consent to something like that when you’re a child. And I know it ends up taking away feeling from your penis. Bleh. Anyways, I’m curious how others feel.

I had a partial circumcision, they cut a slit in it, done for medical reasons a few years ago and that hurt like hell! Now I’m glad I had it done but inflicting that kind of pain on a baby is wrong!

Isn't it more hygienic if one is circumcised? I also read somewhere that it's more of a religious thing, Isn't it? Anyways, I was circumcised when I was in my teens and I am glad my parents did it for me coz I feel dirt or whatever might be caught in between the skin? 🧐

The idea that circumcised penises are cleaner is rooted in religious racism. Christians wanted their members to think that others were “unclean” etc however they could. SO MANY humans aren’t circumcised, and they’re not “dirtier” than you. I know you probably don’t mean it this way, but that’s part of societally ingrained racism.

perhaps the poll should include the women on the business end

Circumcision was the norm where my WASP parents lived in 1946.

I wasn't cut till I was 12. Was told the skin was growing onto the head. I now know it's bs, but too late too ask why.

Let’s not forget that circumcision is only the norm in North America, in most of the rest of the world it’s only done for medical or religious reasons.

You pull the foreskin , you scrub with a cloth specially around the banjo string ....et voilà. Done ! Repeat before any intimate encounter. Pretty simple really

On a night out and with the possibility of an encounter arising without cleaning facility...you pull the skin and let it rub and dry in you shorts to avoid having shedding skin trap in there. To avoid that you avoid peeing with the foreskin on...simply by retracting it every time you pee .

No hard science but you got to be more methodical and deliberate if you want to keep enjoying that extra sensitivity and make sure your partner is not dealing with smelly cottage cheese ( sorry to gross people out) but it's something the ladies here must have a lot of anecdotes to tell about that .

I joke about peeling my foreskin back and it smelling like low tide,but if you take 10 seconds out of your daily shower routine and actually peel I back and give it a scrub,it'll be fine.

If you think male circumcision is weird, you would be horrified at the 3 types of female circumcision genital mutilation that is still practiced in the middle east and sub-Saharan Africa.
I had an Ethiopian girlfriend for a while, and her clitoris (or the tip/nub) had been sliced off when she was a baby.

As other posters have noted, outside of religious practices male circumcision is mainly practiced in North America. Surprisingly the practice was started by Dr John Kellogg to prevent masturbation.

Circumcised. Not like I had any choice when I was a few months old. I have no idea what not being circumcised would be like so there's no real point in asking whether I'm happy about it or not. It just kind of is and I accept it. Plus, I've been told a few times I have a beautiful cock which always makes me feel good. Sure I pay women to say that but I gloss that over.

Regardless of hygiene, I do think a circumcised cock is more picturesque. Don’t see a lot of porno’s with the overwrap featured.

No men , including my son is circumcised in my family .
one family member had to be done at 21 due to pain during sex & had suffered long in silence but at least as a grown up you are asleep during & super medicated after .
Can’t believe anyone thinks there isn’t long last mental effects from having a piece of your body cut off within days of being born . I remember the nurse swinging in my room after I had my son & I think I shot lasers through her when she asked if I wanted him “done “
No fucking way , hygiene is a matter of proper cleaning , unfortunately boys who turn into men don’t get taught properly. Butts , pee pees . Soak ‘em & scrub em please 🤪👍🏻

You’d be surprised how many uncircumcised cocks look circumcised when hard .

 

[raulg]

It is. The foreskin traps a lot of germs and dirt if not cleaned properly. So yes… it’s less hygienic to still have it.

Whatever kind of genitals you have they’re not clean if you don’t clean them lol

People say that circumcision doesn't hurt, but I disagree.


I was circumcised when I was born and I couldn't walk for over a year.

medical circumcision started in the 1800s to prevent boys from masturbating. since then multiple excuses were created to justify forced circumcision of infants.

it started in the U.K and spread to the U.S, Canada, Australia and New Zealand. all those counties except the U.S stop circumcision boys in the 70s-80s.
