Say no to Circumcision!

[fasts102376]

my neighbor's baby boy was facing blindness, because he was born without eyelids ... nurses had to place eye drops in for him, 'round the clock ... a genius plastic surgeon managed to fabricate new eyelids, with skin from the boy's circumcision ... the operation was a success !!!, the new eyelids saved his overall vision, (but, he'll always be a little 'cock-eyed') :S2:

lmao!! you aint right:giggity::giggity:

you know, in all seriousness, it's always fascinated me, that God instructed the Jews to circumcise the male babies "on the 8th Day" .... then, Man, in all his supposed wisdom, discovered that the human body has it's highest levels of Vitamin K (the blood-clotting vitamin), on the 8th Day of human life ... only took us 2,000 years to discover what our Maker, knew all along

Not that I'm much of a religeous person but didn't God make man in his own image? So if God were a male he would be intact. Also if God wanted men to not have a part of their body why would he include it in his design?

IF Parents choose to slice the tip of their sons penis off they should be there in the room while it happens and should live with the nightmeres of their childs torture. So many argue "He won't remember it anyways" which is true, he will just be imprinted and always carry the pains of his torture, he just won't know where it stems from, but the secondary effects will still very much be carried with him his whole life.

As for all the men "who wish they had had it done" go do it! Aside from the fact that the only reason you want it done is for your own personal insecurities and societies ability to dictate the "norm" it is your choice and is really much safer when preformed as an adult or at least once the foreskin has separated from the glans naturally if it is going to. Not to mention you are better able to care for it and prevent seriouse infection that could cause you to lose your penis. At least you can excrete into the toilet and let healing oxygen get to it to prevent it from healing into a unine, and meconium soaked diaper, and never let to see the light of day or some good fresh air to let it heal well.

What really appals me is the fact that so many Doctors are spreading lies on outdated information regaurding penis care in general. For instance and doctor that tell you to "work on separating the foreskin from the glans" at any age is saying the same thing as a doctor who would tell a woman to rip her nails out of their beds to remove acrylic nails. Also the misconception that "the foreskin can sometimes never expand large enough to allow the glans to immerge even later in life and can cause problems" is so ill educated since some penises are never ment to be that exposed and still function just as well as any other uncirc'ed penis.

im sorry but mothers deciding for their sons what's best for their penises is just stupid

like someone said before, ive NEVER heard anyone say oh i wish i wasnt circumcised, its always the other way around

It seems like you're contradicting yourself here.

If a mother shouldn't dictate what happens to her son's penis, she should not have him circumcised so that he can decide for himself later in life which way he would rather be.

So in your first statement you seem against circumcision (at least in newborns), but in your second statement you seem for it.

Also just because you have never heard anyone say that they'd rather be uncircumcised doesn't mean that no one feels this way. I have in fact read a post on this website by a male who had been circumcised that says he wishes his parents would not have had him circumcised because it is a violation of his rights as a person, and it is very much so.

Amen. Loved this post. Very informative and so true.

because, HE said so ... it's in the Bible, it was a sign of God's commitment to Man ... we only gave up a tiny piece of skin, God gave up His only Son, not a bad trade :chainsaw:

Having been there, done that..... Its a whole lot easier and safer to have it done as an infant, than it is for an adult. the infant also doesn't have to worry about getting hard and ripping the stitches out then having to have it re-done.

You can do what you want... but if I could father anymore children, any male children of mine would be done as soon as possible after birth.

I don't recommend getting it done as an adult. BTW.... for those of you who got snipped as an infant, consider yourself very fortunate.

If you don't mind me asking. Why would you ever want to have such a procedure done? Was there some medical issue or did you just not like being uncircumcised. Also being one of few who can really compare between uncut and cut from personal experience, what benefits are there for either side. Sorry if it's kind of personal, it's just a debate that I feel strongly about.

my brother-in-law had his snipped, when he was in his late 30's ... that guy SUFFERED, too :wtf: ... don't know why he did it, my sis said it was all his idea, wasn't hers ...

My wife and I chose to keep our son intact, not because of religious ot hygenic reasons, but the fact that we couldn't afford it, but we also didn't see it as necissary.
