btw do you mean youre indifferent on the matter rather than ambivalent?

[/ QUOTE ]

Well kinda both. Indifferent because it's not a big deal either way and ambivalent because I keep going back and forth. My ego wants my boy to have the same pretty pecker as his dad, but logic is pointing towards leaving him whole.

I voted you should not circumcise him.

I am circumcised.

Yes, my penis is "fine", works well, and using it is enjoyable. Some of it is missing though, and nobody asked me if that's the way I wanted it or not.

How do I know what it should have been like? I will never know.

Yes, my dad is circumcised too, so I "look like him". So what?

Do some searching and read about what actually happens during a circumcision procedure. Find a reference that shows pictures, if possible, so you can see what would actually be done to your son. Anesthetic is not always used. It's not as if you can just roll back the foreskin and snip it off, either; a newborn's foreskin is actually attached to the head of the penis, so they essentially have to tear the foreskin away from the head before they cut it off.

I find it interesting that, in America, the idea of a female having her clitoral hood removed at birth disgusts most people, yet the idea of a male having his foreskin removed at birth is widely accepted and practiced, and nobody bats an eye. It's the same damn thing.

If you do not circumcise your son, and he decides, later in life, that he really does not like it, he can always have it done later if he decides that it's worth it. But it will be HIS decision.

If you do circumcise your son, and he decides, later in life, that he rather would not have been, there isn't anything he can do about it. You have taken the decision away from him.

Also, although rare, hope that they don't botch the procedure if you do have it done.

You're talking about America, right?

Just assume that all conversations are talking about America and you will be right.

I dunno, how about chopping part of your infant son's dick off? That seems like a bit of a downside.

I've heard cutting the skin stunts its growth. I'm sure this is a myth. I've also heard that uncut penises are more sensitive. this is definately true. try pulling it back, putting on jeans, and walking more than ten paces. like, ow.

This isn't entirely true. Anybody can stretch out their skin and essentially turn it into a new foreskin.

There's no way it's the same thing.

Circumcision is a crime. Do some research.
