If you ain't a "Four by Two" and are not "chopped'--just look upon it as one of life's little drawbacks!

The Circumcision
Little Joey, at the back of the class, was squirming in his chair, not paying any attention to what was being taught. The teacher, Miss Wanda, approached him to find out what the problem was.
Quite embarrassed, Joey whispered that he had just been circumcised, and he was quite itchy.

Miss Wanda sent him to the principal's office to phone his mom and ask her what to do about it. After making the phone call, little Joey returned to class and sat down.

All of a sudden, there was quite a commotion in the back of the room. The classmates around Joey were all laughing and giggling. Miss Wanda walked to the back of the class to see what was causing the disturbance. The teacher glanced over at Joey... He was sitting at his desk with his penis hanging out.

Miss Wanda was shocked at the sight: "What are you doing?" she gasped. "I thought I told you to call your mother!"

"I did," replied Joey. "My Mom told me that if I could stick it out till noon, she'd come and pick me up from school."

If a child has irresponsible and twee parents (perhaps you are thinking of the parents of Brooklyn and Romeo here), then they have bigger problems than their names.

I keep hoping against hope that we (people) have gotten past cheap shots and personal insults against each other over this issue. Sadly, I think that probably all the insightful perspectives on this issue have already been spent - ... signals to me that it is time to move on.... :beer:

Are we left with a shell of people (no longer even arging the issues) but trading insults based on physical appearance?

Thanks guys - I have learnt a lot from this thread (honestly) - and I hope that everyone who eventually walks away from this thread also learnt something too. :D

Cheers, everyone. Hope to meet up in another thread.

LOL... Working really hard for the NHS and being a great mum to 4 kids. Having a blast back here in sunny ole England.... :D

Good to see you. ((((((hug)))))))

Shall we steal the thread and chat about life now.. Hahahahahaha... ;)

Oh funny thing about circumsision..... Had a patient we couldn't catheterise as the entrance was too small due to a tight foreskin... Took about 3 hours of the surgeons fiddling about with local anaesthetic, scissors, tubes, introducers etc to get a catheter in the man.... Lets just say it was like a bloodbath and very painful for him.... Couldn't sedate him due to his other condition.... :eek:

Anyway... That said I am off to get the non snipped and unsnippable children from school... ;)

Sometimes, women resort to this to try and please the man in their life ... a bit like having your breasts pumped up to look like swollen grapefruits! I dated a guy once who had the damned nerve to book me an appointment for a boob job, he thought it was a nice present ... I dumped him!

Thinking now I should have booked him in to get himself cut, wonder if he would have thought that was a nice present?

Question for the women here, do you prefer cut or un-cut? I'm curious, cus I know I have a very definite preference! :o

My 9 year old son isn't. I'm getting comments from other parents who have routinely had their son 'done'. They make me feel uncomfortable by implying that my son will somehow be traumatised in high school due to his not looking like other boys. That I've somehow doomed him to a life of ridicule and without acceptance.

A quick google and I found this:

http://www.circlist.com/preferences/preferences.html

and these people:

http://www.norm.org/

What is happening??????:eek::eek::eek::eek:


What are your thoughts on this?

My son has no trouble in school.......I don't think its anything to worry about....
