When I was a child
I caught a fleeting glimpse
Out of the corner of my eye.
I turned to look but it was gone
I cannot put my finger on it now
The child is grown,
The dream is gone.
I have become comfortably numb...

So by your equation:Originally Posted by Gawain of Orkeny
Trigger Time = 'Max Pleasure Quota' / 'Pleasure per unit of time'
But what if with control
Trigger Time proportional to 'Pleasure per unit of time'... so more pleasure and longer lasting.
I don't have a problem with that.Originally Posted by Gawain of Orkeny

We are all aware that the senses can be deceived, the eyes fooled. But how can we be sure our senses are not being deceived at any particular time, or even all the time? Might I just be a brain in a tank somewhere, tricked all my life into believing in the events of this world by some insane computer? And does my life gain or lose meaning based on my reaction to such solipsism?

Well, if you want to last longer it's probably easier to rub a little topical anaesthetic on then, say, getting circumcised. The former's more reversible.

I'm almost tempted to tell you what you could do, but I won't. I'm circumcised and never had a problem with it. I don't want somebody else to tell me that I've been brutalised, mutilated or oppressed, and indeed if you said that to me face to face I'd have no problem punching you.I'm hardly surprised. Circumcision is a religious-sadistic ritual to suppress the male sexuality, just like female circumcision is a ritual to suppress female sexuality. Good that the study has been presented, so that at least medical research can finally start devising an alternative surgery (that doesn't remove the senses) for those who do it for non-religious reasons. Also, that it will finally not be considered any better than Clitoridectomy. Perhaps this will be the start of a campaign against the oppression of men in the cultures that use circumcision.
And no that isn't an inferiority complex speaking.
And no, I don't feel 'numb'. I enjoy sex very much thank you, and I like the fact that there's no bacterial growth on my penis.

@Grey Fox: I'm pretty sure Legio was joking... "oppression of men in cultures that use circumcision?" Come on.![]()
@Lemur: You really should have your kid(s?) clipped. If nothing else whatsoever, it greatly reduces the odor. Hate to be crude, but it's true.
Besides which, who is really going to want to rub on some "topical anesthetic" before sex? "Excuse me, lover, whilst I rub some cream onto my penis, and then we can get going."![]()
I'm circumcised myself so I know what I'm talking about. I used to brag about cleanness and "sex lasts longer" when I was still in my denial phase, but I now realize how pathetic I was at that time. It's not at all cleaner, unless you live in a desert without water to clean yourself, and women don't have a problem with the length of intercourse with most unmutilated men, if at all it lasts longer with mutilated penis, it's a diluted experience. "Clean" and "long lasting sex" were excuses I used to accept my condition.Originally Posted by Grey_Fox
I don't need a random stranger on the Internet telling me that he'll punch me in the face when I say I feel repressed and deprived of my human rights after this mutilation. How many people do I need to hear telling me that it's not normal to feel mutilated - here I'm even threatened with violence over it. I think people who have suffered such mutilation should receive support to get past the denial state, rather than being scared into keeping the frustration inside and feeling increasingly traumatized. I'm glad this study has finally proven that circumcision is mutilation, and that other circumcised people, as well as some unmutilated people, can stop calling me abnormal for feeling mutilated and repressed, and that I can receive support to live a normal life despite this. And that perhaps states will invest money into researching organ regeneration to find a way of perhaps reversing this mentally painful condition. And that people who do circumcision for non-religious reasons receive alternate treatments, such as possibly removing only the upper 10th of the foreskin, rather than all of it, or similar. And that society fairly either takes stance against both male and female genital mutilation (in the name of human rights), or none of them (in the name of religious tolerance).

On that your ineligible for comment. You don't know the difference, you were mutilated (if female curcumcision is multilation then so is male) as an infant. You litterally don't know the difference, and you can't ever know. Neither do I though, for the opposite reason. My brother however said sex isn't as good (for him) without the foreskin. But he's since over come his self inflicted hadicap.Originally Posted by Grey_Fox
Oh, and in case your wondering I never got mine more than half way back. Then my knees give out and my eyes roll back into my head from the sensory over load.

I researched the heck out of this when I was deciding what to do with my boy lemur. Basically, circumcision was really uncommon in the U.S.A. until the early 20th century, when it was promoted as an anti-masturbation measure. That was the first argument put forward. By the '40s and '50s it was said to be an essential hygenic step. These days they say it's a great way to prevent cancer of the foreskin, and stop aids.Originally Posted by Ironside
It's good to be suspicious when the rationales keep changing but the goal stays static.
Seriouly this sounds like a physiological problem. How many here remember being circumcized?I don't need a random stranger on the Internet telling me that he'll punch me in the face when I say I feel repressed and deprived of my human rights after this mutilation. How many people do I need to hear telling me that it's not normal to feel mutilatedAll that counts is what your woman thinks.

I don't want to suggest anything that's not based on fact or logic, but...circumcision makes some men unable to orgasm or unable to enjoy sex at all (physically).Originally Posted by Gawain of Orkeny
I also don't really understand what all these comments about women have to do with it, it's not like they feel the difference...

Yeah spit is hard to come byI was always under the impression you had to use a lubricant if you were circumcised, which sounds like a hassle.![]()

A moment of reflection: I've not been tracking the bickering too closely, but are the circumcised participants being too insensitive and the uncircumcised being overly sensitive, or is the verbal squabbling independent of their circumcision status?![]()
