Do you wish you had foreskin?

[Guest EXPAT]

I had a great debate with a good friend of mine who recently had a son. I begged him not to circumcise him but they did anyway. I tried to send all kinds of information about it but he and his wife felt that it would be "healthier and clearer" for him in the long run. The US and Israel are really only the two countries left who do this barbaric act.

I thought this posting on twitter was funny between he and his mother:

Given a choice between a foreskin and a full head of hair, I'd take the hair.

I am cut and wouldn't change it for anything. There are a multitude of excellent reasons why circumcision is beneficial. I won't mention them but a little research on Google will provide answers.

Circumcised penis is the iconic penis. Is the one seen everywhere, when a penis is drawn or illustrated anywhere is always circumcised, so there must be an aesthetic reason for that. The vast majority of people that cares for penis fancy a circumcised one. Uncut IMHO is boring and un-sexy.

And all of those reasons have been refuted completely.

Well, a lot have. An uncircumcised cock requires more care, but I truly wish I had never been cut. But it is what it is...

"Circumcised penis is the iconic penis. Is the one seen everywhere..."

REALLY??? you might want to tell that to the men of Central and South America, Europe, Asia and Australia! I bet they will be surprised!

Agree. TO most of the world, that is a pretty silly statement.

I'm uncut and it's never been a good or bad thing to me.

When I wrote "most seen everywhere" I did not mean most people are circumcised, what I meant was that circumcised penis are the ones that are more reproduced in drawings, illustrations, published photographs, porn movies, even bathroom stalls, so they are perceived as more aesthetically pleasant. If an uncut guy try to get hired for a porn movie or a photo shoot his chances are pretty slim. Why? because that's not what most people want to see. The vast majority prefers to look at a circumcised penis, this is what sells. Can this be denied? And more embarassing even in the regions of the world where circumcision is not the norm (the regions mentioned in a previous post) the imagery of a circumcised penis is the prevalent one.

Smelly smegma is not one of my favorite things.
