    I'll put a twistix on my foreskin and use that as a condom instead thank you very much
    SIG TOO BIG! Maximum 120x60 button and no more than 3 text lines of DEFAULT SIZE and COLOR. Unless your sig is for a GFY top banner sponsor, then you may use a 624x80 instead of a 120x60.

                Schmegma. Is that how you spell it?

                That's all I can think about when I think "uncircumsized".

                  Bah, my parents didn't want me to get circumsized since a baby goes through excruciating pain during the circumcision process.

                      Or.... You could just use a condom, and not mutilate your penis...

                          Yep... I shudder to think what I am missing. The doctor who gave me a circumcision is in my kill list.

                            Bertran Auvert of the French National Research Agency INSERM and colleagues tested more than 3,000 uninfected men aged 18-24 South Africa's Guateng province, where 32 percent of adults are infected.

                            Some of the men were circumcised at the start of the trial while others had the procedure after 21 months. At the end of the trial, researchers registered 69 HIV cases, and only 18 of them were in the men who were circumcised at the start.

                              it's an interesting argument, but i've also read other studies saying that being uncircumsized does not impact cleanliness regarding infection since soap and such has come so far since say, the middle ages. i'm torn. no pun intended.

                                I'd think wearing a rubber would probably be a better strategy.

                                  The circumcised men were 65 percent less likely to become infected with the deadly and incurable virus. Thats a hell of alot more than a "may." -- thats cutting your chances in half. If you are gay, or at risk for AIDS you are insane not to be uncircumcised!

                                  By the way, I posted this same story a few weeks ago.

                                  They actually cut this thing short because the results were so drastic.

                                  I agree with this:

                                  "It is a very sensitive issue, and not just biologically," said UNAIDS chief scientific adviser Catherine Hankins, adding that circumcision should only be used as part of a package of preventive measures such as the use of condoms and behavioral changes to limit the number of sexual partners.

                                  People, including plenty in this industry, just don't take the issue very seriously, and thats exactly why infection rates explode.

                                          Circumcision is a primitive ritual for religious freaks.... :P


                                          seriously though...
                                          I've been with my GF for a while and to be honest...i'm not worried about HIV...
                                          Sure this discovery could be an important one to help out the AIDS crisis in Africa, but I don't see how it can be useful to me...
                                          According to the article it's effective in like 60% of the cases....NewsFlash: Condom is 99.999% effective...
                                          but obviously if it helps lower the growing number of aids cases in africa then great!..
                                          mmm my sig was too big... no more cool animation

                                            What the fuck does that mean? I wash everyday and I smell good...everywhere... Does it mean that, if I were cut I could go longer without washing my dick and it wouldnt smell?? How fucked up is that...I'm not interested LOL

                                              there's also the argument that girls seem to like it better when it's cut

                                                i guess it's true if you are in a country where a good % of men are cut...

                                                my GF never even saw a cicumcised dick...

                                                and quite frankly...when your dick is hard, you can barely see a difference...(and if you aint hard when it's time for action well you have a bigger problem on your hands than your foreskin LOL)...

                                                  exactly, why on earth would i remove my foreskin and get less feeling on my cock?

                                                  it makes no fucking sense at all, only people with a fucked up religion or stupid enough to follow their parents' footsteps would do the same to their child.

                                                  i dont need to "make my dick look bigger", is it true that jewish men really do have small penises' and this is why they get it done?

                                                      The Pros and Cons
                                                      On the plus side, studies indicate that circumcised infants are less likely to contract a urinary tract infection (UTI) in the first year of life. About one out of every 1,000 circumcised boys has a UTI in the first year, whereas the rate is one in 100 (at most) for uncircumcised infants.

                                                      Circumcised men may also be at lower risk for penile cancer, although the disease is rare in both circumcised and uncircumcised males. Although some studies indicate that the procedure might offer an additional line of defense against sexually transmitted diseases (STDs), particularly HIV, the results of studies in this area are conflicting and difficult to interpret.

                                                      It's also easier to keep a circumcised penis clean, although uncircumcised boys can learn how to clean beneath the foreskin once the foreskin becomes retractable (usually some time before age 5). However, some uncircumcised boys can end up with infected foreskins as the result of poor hygiene.

                                                      Some people also claim that circumcision either lessens or heightens the sensitivity of the tip of the penis, decreasing or increasing sexual pleasure later in life. But neither of these subjective findings has been proven to be true.

                                                      Although circumcision appears to have some medical benefits, it also carries potential risks - as does any surgical procedure. These risks are small, but you should be aware of both the possible advantages and the problems that can be associated with the procedure before you make your decision. Complications of newborn circumcision are uncommon, occurring in between 0.2% to 3% of cases. Of these, the most frequent are minor bleeding and local infection, both of which can be easily treated by your child's doctor.

                                                        I was just thinking about this.

                                                        "Several studies have suggested that men who are circumcised have a lower rate of
                                                        HIV infection. This has been especially noticeable in some parts of Africa, where some groups are routinely circumcised while neighboring groups are not."

                                                        Wouldn't this over time lead to massive circumcisions in some groups? Consequently, wouldn't this lead to some major case of discrimination? I can just imagine the consequences of a study like this being circumcisions made not based on medical evidence but on racial/geographical profiling just because someone happens to be from a "high risk" area.

                                                          Since I live in South Africa, I am going to tell you the truth and nothing but the truth:

                                                          Does circumcision cure ignorance and stupidity? No? Then it's not going to make a difference.....

                                                            I can understand why, since the skin on a circumcised penis would be stronger. But then again, this do not prevent anything so it doesnt matther.

                                                            You can still get HIV first time you fuck unprotected, circumcised or not.
                                                            Suffering arises from attachment to desires.
                                                            Suffering ceases when attachment to desire ceases.
