See that's the thing I don't get... right there... "false and stupid opinions."

that's a fair dismissal

Its traditional jewish and arabic thing. It was widespread in United states as well because of the fact that there was strong jewish presence in medicine.

what's not to get?

person a is cut and didnt wash his penis for 2 weeks

person b is uncut and washes every day

but a lot of people have the general opinion that cut is more clean.

so according to my portayal of person a & b that opinion is false (and stupid)

unless you believe that dirt is magically rejected by cut penisses

but i also know that talking sense into people in this discussion is useless and therefore i lean back and enjoy (and never move to the US)

It's about time they got rid of this ancient ritual, the world has moved on. The original concept of both male and female circumcision was to reduce sexual pleasure so as when the son/daughter grew up they would be less likely to bring shame on the family i.e. they would be more able to think with their heads (the big head that is)

Though perhaps we should circumcise rapists to help them stay in control

LOL. So cut men don't wash their cock? That's as silly as assuming uncut men don't wash their cock.

it doesn't look normal, it looks circumsized and molested

i'm not sure if you're bored and want to troll me or if you really don't understand what i'm trying to say...

and both are missing Franck's :2 cents: 2 cents

being european, gay and uncut I can say there are many guys i've talked to, both straight and gay and bi, who wish they weren't circumcised.

Some men even go trough foreskin restoration processes.

And the "cut dick is cleaner' bullshit ain't true, sorry. Been with a cut guy who's dick smelled because apparently didn't shower his junk. If he doesn't groom it doesn't matter whether he's cut or uncut.

The other argument that babies stop crying after 5 minutes is also not true.

That said, doesn't San Francisco have more pressing problems to deal with?

My son cried for at least an hour afterward, and then for about a week every single time he peed in his diaper. It was completely horrible and if I could go back I wouldn't have done it.

But at that point I had no exposure to what it meant to be uncut and felt inadequate to make a decision against what everyone else I knew had done.

Since my son was born I have dated a guy with an uncut dick and it is not any different from a cut dick when erect... except maybe it's easier to handle and he definitely seemed wayyyy more sensitive than most guys who were cut.

Ok for those that think that there is no downside to being cut - there are many - do your research.

Here is just 1 of those for you to ponder. You lose 4 x 3 inches of skin with highly sensitive nerves. (that's the size of the removed foreskin if it was still there as an adult.)

The most sensitive part of your cut dicks is the small remaining piece of foreskin tissue! (around the frenulum just under the head). Check yourself!

You - "oh shit he's right - have they cut off 12 square inches of that shit? - Gulp :Oh crap."

It's time people in the USA wake up and stop this religious practice that has no place in today's society.

To the girls on here that think an uncut dick looks "grose" or "abnormal" stop perpertrating this myth and take note of NikKay said about regetting cutting the most sensitve part of her son's dick off.

Leave the choice to the child - you can't sew it back on.

I have been married to both...I am sexually experienced with both. Both can be kept clean and healthy and both can belong to men who decide to slack off in the personal hygiene department. So, yes, I have experience with uncircumcised penises but I am not devoted to them or picky.

Funny...as much as I don't think there should be a law about this passed, it is the precisely the collection of people in San Fran that is making me think seriously about moving there. I am actually there now visiting some friends and if anywhere gets me to move back to the States it will be here.

Is Jeff Dillon behind this, trying to even the playing field?

Wow..did gay marriage get passed and I missed it?

That's what I love about GFY..arguments made that make absolutely NO SENSE to the subject at hand.

This is precisely what entered my mind. You can kill your to-be baby but holy fuck if you snip off a bit of its skin once it is born!

That said, it seems like an odd religious practice, but it's still a religious practice, and considering all the shit we let the religious do here in the name of religious freedom, why not the snippage of foreskin?

But hey, while we're on this "let the child decide" kick, let's have them decide what they eat...we'll have fuckloads more kids with malnutrition considering the ones that have malnutrition now are the ones with shitty parents who just say "okay" every time their kid wants particular food or wants to snack. Let's also let them decide whether or not they go to school...we'll have deserted schools in no time.

Here's another...next time you take your kid to the doctor for something where they need a shot, let them decide whether they get the shot or not and take a wild fucking guess what they'll decide.

This is really not something they need to make a law for, people should have enough sense to stop cutting newborn dongs. Seems like more and more people are figuring it out on their own anyway.

Definitely gives a new meaning to the term "recap"

It is fucking sick for anyone who does that to children.

Anyone whos parents who did it are completely uninformed and most likely half brain dead.

holy cow this made three pages?

Back up your claim that it makes no sense.

You are removing a dozen square inches of surface area for diseases to attach to or develop on. If I had my arm removed I'd be about 10% less likely to develop skin cancer. Hell if I had my entire penis removed i'd have a -100% chance of developing penlie cancer. Doesn't mean I'd do it. You have to look at the sampling methodology and determination of the statistics.

Female circumcision and of course the dreaded muslims were used to juxtapose the support for an unfamiliar religious genital custom with a familiar one. In western countries muslims tend to "only" do a "ritualised nick" of the clitoral hood although of course some do still get sent back to grand parents in their home countries for a "holiday".
Basically the point is that we are ok with what we are familiar with. Everyone is used to circumcision in our culture so it doesn't seem like a big deal to remove a body part for neglible (if any) benefits on balance without informed consent. Just like some orthodox Jews don't think there is too much wrong with a mohel sucking on their baby's penis with his mouth after circumcision (mezizah), but you'd take a shotgun to someone you found doing the same thing in your baby's room without a second's thought.

What medical school did you flunk out of?
Why didn't my tonsils keep me from getting infected with tonsillitis?

where was this, high school? :1orglaugh these dumb chicks obviously never had an uncut dick upin their cunts and are very small minded: "I'm not familiar with it so it's gross, eeeeek!"

what sort of argument is that? why didn't your immune system stop you from getting tonsillitis? that's like saying i got some grit in my eye, whats the point of having eyelids and eyelashes. The tonsils are there to fight bacteria and infections.

anything in or on our bodies is there for a useful reason or is left over from what was useful to us in the past. so if a foreskin wasn't physologically benficial we wouldn't have one, its called evolution.

So,should i cut my dick or not :)

chopping off womens breasts at 18 would likely decrease breast cancer rates. chopping off your hands would almost certainly decrease hand cancer rates and all sorts of hand related injuries/maladies

not suprised, many a gfy thread about the big "c" has gone longer. It is one of those hot topic threads on gfy.

I smell smegma

probably from your uncircumcised pussy lips, go wash them.

They got enough signatures and this will be on the ballot in November.

What the fuck kind of stupid comment is that? Why do people think that local laws passed in one city are in any way related to the current President? San Fran recently tried to ban kids meals for fast food - was that because of Obama too?

It's about time the world moves on from these outdated barbaric practices. Most people know the real reason behind both male and female circumcision was to help a person stay in control so as they don't have kids of of wedlock and bring shame on the family.

If someone really wants this done, it's better to wait until they can make that decision for themselves, the same as with getting tattooed.

Wicked!

I love the same cunts saying the same shit cunty points on the same topics.

Can we just sticky the following topics once a week?

1) Foreskins Vs Butchered
2) Android Vs iOS
3) OSX Vs Windows
4) Paul Markham saying content is important and free porn is bad

It would sure save a lot of time.

Thanks for your consideration.

See its ironic you think that... You're born with foreskin, but you consider it not normal?

awesome we need to stop the religious from mutilating the children of this nation, people think children are *theirs* a mere possession, but fact is, the child has HUMAN RIGHTS and deserves to not be cut by some weirdo in the name of religion.

Ban the practice in america. the religious need to be controlled they are far out of line, especially practices like this.

the jewish bris and catholic circumcision is mutilation of another person in the name of religion, nothing more.

Leviticus 12:3:
On the eighth day, [the child's] foreskin shall be circumcised.

anyone doing this should be arrested, period.

"People can practice whatever religion they want, but your religious practice ends with someone else's body,"

heres a read about how this child had penis cut off (botched circumsision at hospital) was raised as girl then committed suicide.

ANYONE WHO SUPPORTS primitive shit like this is sick.
