WHAT YOU SAY

[This page is closed to new input. --Ed.]

I have an idea!

I think we should save our foreskins and turn them into helmets.

Whenever we are bored with the no helmet look (circumcised), we simply put on the helmet (uncircumcised).

I am sure that few of us, men, here, would love to do the fashion catwalk for the ladies. HA!

Moonshineprincess,

For a girl nothing. The nerve ending in that special place cannot tell the difference. Also the foreskin is naturally pulled back during intercourse.

To a guy it is everything in the world.

Circumcision is just a way for doctors and hospitals to make additional money. They will say anything to convince the parents it is essential.

circumcision is unhealthy and unnatural

Should a person who cannot pull his foreskin behind the head of his penis be circumcised? My thing is too big for the foreskin.

I don't think there is not any benefit for this. This is why women aren't circumcised. This tradition is barbaric. If we were doing this to infant girls there would be an uproar. It is commonly known there are thousand of sexual receptors in the foreskin. I'm speaking from experience.

This is for the request of the 13 year old boy.

There is a lot more sensitivity on an uncircumcised penis. After being with my wife for 17 years she wouldn't want me any other way(intact). Growing up in the Northeast I was a rarity. Most of my friends were circumcised. Not knowing any better I always wanted to be too. I felt girls would reject me for this reason. I was wrong though. I finally settled down with my wife for 17 years now.

What if your foreskin doesn't go over the head of your penis? I got a problem.

Our ancient cultures may not have been technically and scientifically sophisticated but they are generally far wiser than the "barbarian" culture. American society might learn a lot if it copied us in a few areas, rather than us always copying them.
In America every mature man has the right to get himself cut, if he wants it. This freedom is a direct benefit of living here, but what has happened to the rights of the new-born baby boy who has bits cut off him before he even knows about it.
Anyhow where I live, asian and latino migrants are now making 4skins the majority in the younger age groups!

An uncircumsised penis is a superior penis. I like it natural.
a dude Wednesday, June 05, 2002 at 05:48:26 (PDT)

why do you want to get circumcised if you are only 13. how do you know it looks cool have you seen your friends or something? trust me when you do a girl she will like you to be uncircumcised. I did alot of girls and they told me they love uncircumcised because it feels better and they like to lick on it and suck it and drool on it.

For all the un-cut men out there

Ok, I must be a real ditz. I've been seeing this guy (Viet) for 6 months, and for the first time last night, I noticed that he has a skin-on frank. I never noticed that before, I swear. I started laughing, and he thought I was laughing at him, but it was only at myself and how dopey I am. When I explained, he just looked at me like I was insane. LOL!! I don't know how I never noticed.

Objective AF,

"Does that mean that a male should not have oral with her?....What it means is that both male and female should wash/clean themselves properly"

What? Women want foreplay, cleaniness, and oral. This is just too much.

Could force a man to become celibate, circumcised or not...^_^

AC Dropout Wednesday, May 08, 2002 at 12:06:21 (PDT)

Ladalang;

As an AF, I have to support po's arguments. We must remember that a woman's private part is by nature a place for secretions that have to be cleaned regularly. Does that mean that a male should not have oral with her? Certainly not. What it means is that both male and female should wash/clean themselves properly; circ' or not. But she will have to take more time in cleaning her herself. If anyone has a "jet" engine (as po would say)with many parts to be cleaned, it's us women, not men with a simple "gear stick" (to keep it auronautical as per po).
