Whether males are happy with their penis no matter what, or whether it's some reaction to protect themselves psychologically from the torment of knowing they are mutilated, it doesn't really matter because you are happy and that's great. A lot of males are extremely unhappy that they were put through the procedure, it's really very sad and a very unfortunate side effect. So you guys are lucky that you can live with and cope with it just fine.

rohr said: [quot]st1llnox said: Man... awkward and weird subject.
It'd be one thing if it were like when I was born with over 80% of babies getting snipped... but...
It's a minority now. And it's not as though the disadvantaged get anything cool to compensate with. My friend has a baby boy due any day now.
So, here's the question: do you guys think I should or shouldn't ask him to NOT circumcise his baby boy?
Again, it'd be something totally different if that were the "norm" right now/the boy would be in the majority for being cut. That said, that's not the case and I'm wondering if I should chime in. 
AAaaaawwwkward.....
If it were my friend, I would ask if they are going to choose to circumcise him. If your friend says yes, ask him why. When he gives you all the false beliefs that make people want to mutilate their sons (cleaner, lessens the chances of getting AIDS, etc.) fill him in with the facts. But do it politely. And if he gets offended, just reassure him you are only looking out for what's best for the child because you care and have done research on the subject and just want to make sure he doesn't make an uninformed decision that will affect the poor baby for the rest of his life.
Getting circumsised is cleaner, maybe not substantially but it is a little cleaner, and I doubt to many people are really that stupid that they think having a foreskin increasing you're chance of getting aids.
I am circumsized and I'm happy about it.
It is not OPs place to even be worrying about this or to bring it up honestly.
It's a myth that circumcised penis is not as clean, or not as easy to clean than an intact one, my friend. If you don't wash ANY part of your body on a regular basis, it's going to get nasty. That doesn't mean you should amputate that body part. It's lunacy to think that amputation is a reasonable reaction to the thought that "oh, it might get dirty if they don't take a shower everyday." And a member mentioned earlier in this very thread that they believed circumcision lessens the risk of getting an STD. People still buy into that outrageous claim, believe it or not.
I believe that the OP has a right to inform his friend of facts that he has reason to believe his friend may not be aware of, so his friend doesn't make a decision he later regrets, or even worse, so that the child of his friend doesn't grow up like so many other males: hating his parents for mutilating their gentials for no sane reason.

Or. Are Our cocks are more sensitive because some freak didn't cut bits off. :
I mean. Who was the first man to look down on his new born son and say " he's a fine strapping chip of the old block, you know though, I think we could make a little improvement here... where's me knife" 
Anyway. Seeing as we evolved with them, I see no reason to go cutting them off.
Lets face it for the vast majority of boys, circumcision is a totally unnecessary surgical procedure, and, as any surgical procedure caries with it a curtain risk, why bother. How would it feel to be the father of a son having to explain to his boy that his cock is deformed due to a botched circumcision that was performed for no good reason, but that it was, 'the done thing', tradition.
There are those, I hear, that say a man with a beard has something to hide, whereas, in all probability, it is he that shaves that is hiding something, perhaps that he cannot grow a full and manly beard. Anyone guess I am both uncircumcised, and unshaven.

But you can do that at any time, why do it to a baby that might not have wanted it?

So that he doesn't have to be bothered with it later. Plus, he might not decide to do it, and if you want it done, you have to do it when he doesn't have a choice.
I don't see why you guys are so worked up about a little genital mutilation. BILLIONS of people have been circumcised. It's not going away anytime soon.
I say let him do what he wants to his baby. It's no skin off my dick one way or another.

I think its hilarious when girls argue about this subject! Seriously its a fucking barbaric procedure! There really is no reason to do this. As far as aesthetically I mean honestly who all do you expect to see your kids cock? And as far as getting made fun of in the locker room, everybody pretty much gets fucked with in the locker room. Teenagers are ruthless. I just don't see genital mutilation as the answer to that.

infant circumcision should be abolished if you want your cock snipped then that's your choice but let the kid decide it for himself not get pissed later that his dick was tampered with

I'm cut... and when I was in the Marines, I showered with other guys all the time. The one thing I took away from that experience:
I am SO glad I don't have a freaky-ass elephant-trunk dick.
