Foreskin 'toy'

My brothers are uncircumcised because my mother wanted them to make the choice for themselves. The problem with that, specifically in the case of the eldest brother, is that he doesn't even brush his teeth regularly and he's 24 now. I don't think he cleans himself well or often, so that's a problem from all perspectives.

You can't know when they are children if they'll be inherently lazy, but you could avoid a lot of worry as a parent that way, assuming you trust the doctor to do it right.

My husband is a doctor so he is in favor of circumcision for preventing penile cancer (he says it's horrendous, and he's had patients that had to lose their penis because of it), but he does admit if you keep yourself clean it's not as much of an issue. It also decreases urinary tract infections within the first year of life. He does think it prevents other STD transmission to an extent, but I didn't get the impression that he thought it was huge.

How do you get a guy in this lazy generation to care enough about personal hygiene? That would be my only concern. And yea, circumcision as a "cure" for masturbation is a bit sadistic, imo, but circumcising an infant doesn't have the same purpose.

Besides masturbation is completely healthy!

I just saw this and as far as fake foreskins go - can you get any more unhygienic? This is something I can seen worn for long periods of time and not taken care of properly. Plus it's made of "rubber latex". Wow. Just.. wow.

I don't really understand why all of you care so much about whether you are circumcised or not. As far as I'm concerned, you don't need a fancy sports car to impress me, you just have to know how to drive, if you get me. lol

Looks is about the only argument you have, I think that women who are willing to perform circumcisions on their sons should be willing to have their inner lips cut off. I have a foreskin and it's definitely the most sensitive skin on my entire body including the glans. It's a purely cosmetic procedure with detriments to sexual health. If an uncut man want to feel or look cut, he just needs a cock ring and it keeps the skin pulled back.

The only reason that it is furthered by the medical community is profit. Physicians and OB's used to fight like mad over it, a few hundred bucks for ten minutes work sounds good to anyone, except the kid getting half of his sexual pleasure system lopped off.

And who on this website is against more sexual pleasure?

Just one more item in the growing stack of evidence that circumcision removes something valuable and should only be performed on willing adults, not helpless infants.
