Even Jews Are Axeing Circumcision

[Csargo]

Unnecessary operations should always be avoided IMO. If my appendix starts causing trouble, I'll cut it out. However, I wont do it until that time. Circumcision are in my mind just as pointless as cutting out an appendix before it starts causing trouble.

Wooooooo comparing your penis to you appendix never seen anything like that before.

What, I'm not allowed to add another fixation to the Backroom? Not every thread can be about abortion, religion, gun control, politics and the evil of Micronesia. Somebody's gotta stand up for the wang.

I'll take a snip thread over a gun thread any day...

@Ichigo: Yeah, I kinda understood that... I contemplated a joke in response, but they were all to manly for me...

Lemur. Stop.

This topic is like radiation. It may not bring as much "badness" to the backroom as many other topics, but any addition of "badness" can universally be considered bad. So stop it.

My point of view... as an atheist.

I believe anyone who feels like cutting in their penis should be allowed to do so.

However, doing it on someone who is newly born and doesnt have a say is in my view considered to be torture and should be prosecuted.

i have a friend whos parents are jewish... he however doesnt really fall for teh godstuff, and he kind of hate them for having cut his penis to shreds.

Mainly because the girls go "wtf is that" when they see it...

And of course, it makes the penis less sensitive, and I and probably any other man kind of likes a sensitive penis, for various reasons;)

So feel free to cut away, but forcing it on someone should be illegal.

EDIT: For me the question boils down to: who does the penis belong to? The child or the parents? For me the answer is simple.

But with the rise of new Technology, in twenty or so years the damage done by circumcision may not be so much of a big deal. You can have your cake and eat it too (though I suggest against that).

Saaaay, what do you know that the rest of us don't ? I sure hope that this Technology you speak of is not in the same boat with the one hinted at in all the emails for enlarging my manhood that I've been getting...

What, has no one mentioned the secret handshake, the blood sacrifices and the protocols of Zion yet?

[Philippus Flavius Homovallumus]

I was born with a foreskin, cleaning the whole area is part of my daily hygine ritual, to be honest I can't imagine being comfortable in pants without it.

Besides, next time I have to dive out of a window naked and run down the street I have a funny feeling it will elicit fewer screams in it's current state. It also won't get so damb cold.

As far as cancer, well if a woman has her breasts and nipples removed that removes the chance of cancer completely.

Sound like a good idea? I mean, it's not like women need them in the modern age, is it?

[Bijo]

My short response follows:

I see no gain in removing the male genital foreskin nor do I see gain in a general belief, religion, or habitude, in doing so. One advantage I detect is possible increased easiness of cleaning. And perhaps there is the possibility of less sensitivity? If true, this could be regarded as some kind of advantage in certain situations.

Circumcision, disregarding Jews, Christians, or whomever applicable... why? Good day.

Uhm, the point was unnecessary surgery...

Anyway, as for the AIDS-argument, there's really only one thing to say:

WEAR A FREAKIN' CONDOM! GEEZ!!

It's not hard, you open the pack, rip one off, open it as the package says, put it on the tip of the penis and roll it back. Then you squeeze out the air of the air bubble at the tip. That wasn't so hard, now was it? Oh, and do remember to stop humping once it's filled.

I don't really see how circumcision will work against HIV, as a condom(used correctly) is near 100% secure. Circumcision is only safer than not using a condom.

It's also worth noting that the studies showing that circumcision helps stop the spread of AIDS were all conducted in places where dry sex is popular. I would be much more convinced by a study conducted in a first world nation.

Just joking around.

<Whacker> it apparently does reduce the risk of cancer in some cases
