These things are very controversial when it comes to women, but apparently most think it’s ok when it’s about men.
Do you blame your parents? Why did they do it? Scared of HIV? Not wanting to explain their son how to clean underneath the foreskin?
Very unhappy and violated. I don’t have a lot of sensitivity left (except in one area they missed) because they took too much foreskin. It makes me last longer but I can’t help but wonder what I’m missing.
Do we have to use such charged language? I was circumcised for a genuine medical procedure, nothing to do with hygiene, religion, or trends, so I’m very glad my parents had that done. Not so glad it had to happen in the first place, but very happy with the end result.
Pretty good. I like my dick. My wife likes my dick. I never had a complaint about my dick before I met my wife. If I’m missing anything by being circumcised I can’t imagine what it might be. I don’t really think I’d like my dick to be any more sensitive than it is. It was done to most of us in the States back in the 70s. I have a friend who had to have it done in his 30s and he said it was fucking awful. I’ll take what I have.
I never had a complaint about my dick before I met my wife.
This implies that your wife does complain about your dick 😜
I’m not actively mad about it but I agree it shouldn’t have been done and shouldn’t be normalized.
It’s amazing that FGM is outlawed in much of the first world (plus America), but not MGM.
All guys want is equality. Yet ne’er a feminist around when men are the unrepresented victims.
Looks like you’re looking for a very specific answer that you’re not getting.
Doesn’t bother me one bit, as far as I’m aware I was born like this
When I asked my parents they said “We did it in case you wanted to marry a Jewish girl.” It didn’t make any sense at that time either, but since I don’t have any problems with it and have never known my penis any other way, I don’t really mind.
Did you marry a Jewish girl?
Nope
I guess only men can answer but fuck it.
Trans women who want to get rid of their penis get shafted (pun intended) by circumcision as it reduces the amount of material for GRS.
That plus those who want to keep it have to deal with the same impacts as other penis owners. Perhaps even more so, as lack of T and atrophy are not assisted by the loss of the protective layer.
Most people don’t really have a string opinion though, since you don’t often find someone who experienced a sex life with a penis in both configurations.
Stupid question
There are no stupid questions, only stupid answers.
This is asklemmy. The point is to be able to ask questions. If you think a question is stupid, just move on. Besides, enough other people have replied to suggest that the question was worth asking.
Ok Grandma
That’s it! No more candy dish for you, young man!
I’m not particularly bothered by it.
Not happy with their decision but there’s nothing I can do about it.
You can restore
Just did a few hours of research on this and Imma start right now. Thanks for making me aware! For a few years now I’ve wished I were uncut
I wish it wasn’t done to me. I blame American customs more than my parents. What a barbaric thing we do to our children.
In my opinion in 100 years it will be viewed as genital mutilation as it’s done to children without consent for basically no reason at all. But by then it will be purely an elective surgery adults get so they feel their dick looks prettier, so whatever.
Pretty far from the biggest problem of our age. Maybe don’t stress about it.
Ah yes, more antisemitism. Hittin on all cylinders I see you Nazi fucks. I feel excellent about it, not only does my cock not look like a sad elephant, but it’s more hygienic than leaving unnecessary skin over the tip of my dick. Thanks for asking.
In America, circumcision is common whether you’re Jewish or not. This isn’t necessarily a religious question. Avoid jumping to conclusions, especially when it involves implying that someone is a bigot.
Antisemitism is heinous, which means it’s also a very serious charge to make. Throwing the word “antisemitism” around based on such weak evidence only dilutes it.
I see why he thinks of antisemitism, but I was just thinking of the circumcision without any real reasons, other than ‘that’s just what we do’.
I think for many, ‘that’s just what we do’ is all the thought that goes into it.
An estimated 58.3% of male newborns and 80.5% of males aged 14-59 years in the United States are circumcised
Circumcision is common in the US and usually has nothing to do with Judaism. Male genital mutilation without consent is terrible, even when one’s imaginary friend condones it.
not only does my cock not look like a sad elephant
Fuck you for body shaming people who didn’t have it done.
Fuck off
TL;DR: Don’t care
Was a baby when it was done so don’t remember any of it. Been this way my whole life so have nothing to compare it to. Never bothered me, never was a topic of conversation, and nobody ever cared…probably because it is extremely common where I live.
