Different strokes (no pun intended). I prefer my men without.

I guess it seems unnatural to us. Because it is.

Re: Female circumcision trial may be first in U.S.
Having attended a Jewish circumcision where the rabbi did it (the screams of that baby !!) Put me off it then for having to put children through it. But not wanting to be like a porno manual, just say I don't like the look of them or couldn't be with someone for 'other' reasons (and no I'm not getting into it 
!)

Re: Female circumcision trial may be first in U.S.
It is heartbreaking to think that this procedure is still practised, although I can sympathise with the people who still live in villages and feel that they have no choice, `do it/get it done or starve`.. 
that bastard who has just mutilated his daughter should be locked away for the rest of his days.. 
I am also against male circumcision, unless its purely for medical reasons, but that is just my opinion. If it wasn't meant to be there, why were males born with it??

Re: Female circumcision trial may be first in U.S.
It's meant to be more higenic and some guys who I've met feel it is more sensitive. Some say you also get better sex with a guy who is circumcised. But to do it to the woman, is cruel, it's meant to stop them enjoying sex and as for sewing up the vagina also, I think that is pretty barbaric also. But there are some strange beliefs out there. In some Africa countries they beleive in having sex with babies to get rid of Aids, a big problem also.

Ok, I can accept that, but should that not be the males decision when he is an adult?? If he wants to lob his extra bit of skin off for more pleasure or he wants a cleaner tadger, great, but I find it rather cruel to do this to a tiny baby!! But like I say, thats just my opinon...
As for the culture beliefs, I agree, its barbaric, these poor people don't stand a chance do they?..
