Re: Circumcision
Who knows, perhaps it the practice will go the way of tonsils. When I was a child, it was an automatic thing to have your tonsils and adenoids yanked out, now it's not.

Re: Circumcision
having nothing covering up one of the most sensitive parts of the body DEFINITELY desensitises things... been there (medical reasons) done that...
there have been special cases where NOT being circumcised has lead to BAD things... the guy who first had sex at the age of 18.. only to utterly SHRED his penis due to calcified buildup behind his foreskin that he thought was "normal"... generally if its not clean it gets infected in some way... so for most parents its easier if its clipped. I would say that for most parents being able to easily clean around the area during the first few years is the main reason they continue to do it.
ps - I'm not circumcised... but I've had experiences where its had to be pulled back for weeks on end.... its not nice.

Re: Circumcision
Someone (can't be bothered to trawl back through the posts) made a good comparison to eyelids - in the same way that eyelids protect your eyes, and help flush out things that shouldn't be there, the foreskin protects the end of the penis, so the thoughts of it being unclean are ridiculous unless the person themselves is unclean, which can happen whether circumcised or not.

Re: Circumcision
When my wife was pregnant and we didn't know what the sex of the baby was we got into an almighty argument about the "op chop". My step son was chopped (but he is American). I was glad when our baby turned out a girl because it would of been world war 3.
I still don't understand why the yanks do it? it was the exact opposite at my school, if you had the chop chop you had the piss taken out of you right up until the last day of school.
I say stand up and be proud of the skin covering your member!

Re: Circumcision
so essentially there is no medical basis for the procedure and is completely cosmetic except when performed for religious or cultural reasons
my wife whipped out the 'locker room' argument and i rubbished her.
I will make a few suggestions namely
if you want our society to conform to a twisted 'norm', then you need to too, namely, getting
Liposuction
Boob job
Toe straightening
Botox
Collagen lip injections
Permanent makeuop
Facelift
Tummy tuck
Which are all medically neccessary as circumcision
In fact if a doctor 'does' a boy of mine against my wishes then I expect a multi-million dollar law suit

that article from playgirl 1996 sounds as though its written by the same low IQ, ignorant bint that went to london as a strudent and regaled us with tales of empty supermarket shelves
few choice quotes
Sudsing his shaft often results in the dual-benefit of making him clean and hard. Some uncircumcised guys are so sensitive they may come right then and there.
She even suggests giving his member a cute nick-name, dressing it up in costume or decorating it with user-friendly body paints to accentuate - rather than minimize - his special accessory.
The bad news, however, according to sex therapist/educator Patti Britton, PhD, is that this same increased sensitivity can lead to premature ejaculation. "The trigger tends to go off a lot easier," she says.
Based on comments from my wife girlfriends in the USA it seems this is a common problem overhere, despite the practice of common mutilation

As I was cut at a very early age I can't say that I feel "desensitized" as I don't know any different. However, presuming this is true is it neccessarily a bad thing? I mean, if you feel less then do you last longer!!

Speak for yourself.
