Uncut Apology - anti-circumcision parody of Unchained Melody

[EliteDoomer]

I wish my mother would talk like that to me. But she is an ignorant fool in denial of what she has taken from me. Song made me cry son, you kick ass Ron.

[mindofown]

Beautiful!!!

[jslasher1]

I applaud the message, but object to the use of Alex North's music. I don't think his family would approve.

[kotfrank]

Thanks TLC for making it easier to restore, something that can be hard to do mentally. I mean what guy WANTS to know 75% of his erogenous sexual receptors were cut off along with half his penile skin.

[tallyhoman911]

@kotfrank 75% wow i think im depressed now D:

[kotfrank]

I rejoice in your tireless intactivism. Penile sensation is not linear it is exponential being felt by breadth and depth. Cut men never say it feels "exquisite" but intact men do.

[kedocom]

cuttin kids pps is child molestation and the rejection of God

[joshd321]

So much better than Susan Boyle : )

[Ashybasha]

Nearly free, charge the rest and then some to those penile vandals.

[seaco2000]

Lots of uncircumcised males are still unfortunate.. cause.. Most Doctors are Uneducated unhumaine lazy Hypocrites!! When a child or teenager has a foreskin problem, instead of giving them a solution

to fix it (which there are many ways & products!!), The Doctor instead talks down to them with ignorant authority-> convincing them circumcision is the only way how to fix the problem, then sends the child/teenager to the circumciser to quickly amputate the problem! It never needs to be Done!!

[meredumais]

One more question: since I'm medically curious, I must ask. The foreskin is removed during circumcision, right? And the skin you're ';tugging down' to replace it-isn't it of a different cellular type? We all (hopefully) know which parts of the penis are most sensitive, and that many aren't at all. So if 'original' foreskin is so unique and exquisitely sensitive, how is that also true of the comparably 'insensitive' skin being pulled down to cover the glans?

[TLCTugger]

Hi,

Infant circumcision leaves the penis in one of any number of random states. A man may have quite a bit of the original inner foreskin mucosa between the glans and the circ scar, or next to none.

Whatever''s left is tensioned and it expands. This let's the surviving nerve endings function better because the covered parts shed unneeded layers of dead cells so t nerve endings are closer to the surface. When the skin is more shear the nerve endings are tracking subtler phenomena. (more)

[TLCTugger]

It's not just better sensing; there are different mechanical possibilities with slack skin. My wife can rub my glans though my foreskin all day while l lick her, with no risk of rubbing me raw. When she's doing me orally, the skin can be drawn forward of the glans and bunched up so she can tickle the whole ring of skin at once, or even plunge her tongue between the skin and glans to swirl around tickling two surfaces simultaneously. The skin slinks around giving intercourse a plush fullness.

[meredumais]

So I apologize to you. Honestly, I'm so tired of the 'child abuse/mutilation' accusations that I snap at times. I believe your intentions are sincere. I just don't think harboring parental guilt for a decision that doctors told you was the right one is in any way productive. Men who want to regrow their foreskins? That's fine, as long as it's medically proven to be safe. But it's their adult decision at that point. Again, I am sorry, and your voice is wonderful. Peace.

[Hugh7777]

@meredumais "as long as it's medically proven to be safe"? Circumcision has never been "medically proven to be safe"!

I'm not sure if non-surgical foreskin restoration is properly described as a medical procedure. It's rather more like wearing heavy earrings that stretch the earlobes. That hasn't been proved to be medically safe either.

[meredumais]

is reduced in circumcised men, but they've never known anything else-and as I said in another comment, most men I have been with (granted, not many, but enough) have been extremely sexually satisfied. In some cases, I can't imagine greater intensity-it would be scary. Anyway, as you know, women whose clitorises have NO sexual sensations. I know these women well. It's apples and oranges. My baby-making days are sadly over, but if i had another boy, I would insist against cutting.

[Hugh7777]

It's not just "greater intensity". It's a different kind of sensation, because a different kind of nerve is involved. (a kind that evolved specially for the purpose). Remember, most men in the world still have everything, and they and their partners don't have any issues with "greater intensity", because for them too, it's all they've ever known.

[TheYellowtulip]

@meredumais I can't imagine greater intensity? why not and why should it be so scary. Feeling light touching and teasing that cut men don't feel is not scary.

[meredumais]

Anyway, I understand the anti-circ argument. But I do not feel guilty, as I was told at the time that it would reduce UTIs, cervical cancer-all the controversial things. I also had relatives with phimosis, and a background in medical interpreting, so had seen a number of required later circumcisions that were horrific-musch worse. I am also an anti-FGM advocate, as I interpret for Africans, some mutilated women. By comparison, this is not mutilation. It may be scientifically true that sensation

[meredumais]

Just wondered: if you have any daughters, how did they feel about Dad's appearance on Howard Stern, misogynist supreme, in a room full of guys measuring their dicks and comparing sizes? No need to answer.

[TLCTugger]

Hi,

Both my daughters went with me for my appearnce on Howard Stern. They're very proud of our human rights activism and they know how important it must be because of the extreme stunt I was willing to participate in.

Howard Stern is the world's loudest pro-foreskin celebrity and for all his supposed anti-woman flaws, he is really just a brilliant commentator on the human condition.

[meredumais]

Well, that is intriguing. No sarcasm intended. First of all, it's really not 'supposed' anti-woman sentiment...but it's all an act, let's hope. I did an appearance of 'The Bob and Tom Show' once and know how those guys can be.

What people like myself resent is being called child abusers for having circumcised kids. I didn't want circumcision. My ex took the step while I was asleep after labor, and we decided to do it again 2 years later-provided he was anesthetized and I was present. (cont'd)

[meredumais]

You know why this is so hilarious? Because it's supposed to be, but is so painfully UNfunny that it's uproariously hysterical. By the way, has this guy been held hostage at an Olan Mills studio for years? in any case, BRAVO!!! I needed a laugh.

BTW, my two boys still won't speak to me...it's been 18 and 20 years now... we badly need some healing. Any 2-for-1 special deals on those 'tugger' thingamajigs?

[TLCTugger]

Wow, how nice. You're the first person to stop by just to be an asshole.

Of course there's nothing funny about strapping down a perfect healthy baby and amputating the exquisite pleasure-receptive apparatus that nature has been perfecting for 65 million years.

The foreskin is as vital to his full sexual experience as the homologous clitoral hood and labia minora are to female's.

If you let a boy be cut, do apologize.

Foreskin feels REALLY good. HIS body, HIS decision.

[meredumais]

I didn't stop by to be an asshole, but thanks for the thought. I've been accused of being a child abuser by your contigent, as my 2 boys are 'cut'. I'm sorry to break this to you, but my 18-year-old son laughed at this song, thought it was a joke. And he's a great, kind kid...we've always had a very loving bond (his brother as well.) MUCH more to parenting than that decision.'Have I lost your love?' Are you for real? Best wishes.

[colemansasod]

Great voice

[MaddyL]

Good one, Dad.

[brendubab]

For fucks sake America sexually mutilating baby boys is despicable & horrific. All us Irish men are 100% sexually intact meaning we have our foreskins and we love it that way. What type of society would sexually mutilate it's newly born children? Shame on you America.

[TLCTugger]

twing26 said:

"I'm 17. . .I'm now 3 weeks into being circumcised due to a very tight foreskin."

Sorry to hear it. Conservative treatments work outside the US somehow. Get back to us after a couple decades of progressive desensitization.

[colemansasod]

My son was born with a tight foreskin, the Dr said "oh we can circumcise him" I said "Like fuck you will" and the Dr gave us a cream to massage into the foreskin and it loosened up nicely. Dunno why circumcision is the first choice when totally noninvasive alternatives are easily available.

[TLCTugger]

If the child can urinate, he is healthy and normal. The tighteness of the foreskin is none of anyone's business (not even the doctor's).

The normal natural state of the skin throughout childhood is that it is fused to the glans. It will gradually separate as a result of the child's curious manipulations.

Foreskin feels REALLY good. HIS body, HIS decision.

[colemansasod]

I tend to disagree on the intricacies but of the act of circumcission I don't disagree. All the child's welfare is the responsibility of the parents. As it happens my brother also had a tight foreskin, so from second hand information I'm told that retracting a really tight foreskin is quite painful, better to get the matter sorted in infancy seems the best option.

[TLCTugger]

Hi,

^^ I'm told that retracting a really tight foreskin is quite painful, better to get the matter sorted in infancy seems the best option. ^^

Thanks for your note. If the child can urinate, there is no emergency warranting surgery. The natural state of the foreskin is to be fused to the glans through childhood. It must never be retracted by anyone but the child himself. If it hurts he's not ready and he won't do it. That's fine.

[colemansasod]

I'm not talking about a child. There is a such a thing as a tight foreskin in adulthood, and to avoid that a cream to massage in at infancy is preferable to anything else. And nobody retracted my sons s foreskin at all, we just used the cream and that was it.

[meredumais]

colemansasod, I don't want to debate as this gets nowhere (tried it before), but it's just plain wrong for TLC to say the tightness is not the doc's business. As a medical interpreter, I saw a few cases of retraction pain (and hygiene issues) in older children and adults that required general surgery to correct. I learned from the urologists that it's ALWAYS best to get these issues sorted out before 6 months. They were NOT circumcision fans, trust me. Nor am I. But I'll never consider it abuse.

[Hugh7777]

It is quite normal for a child's foreskin not to be able to retract, sometimes up to puberty, so tightness in that direction is NOT the dr's business if his urination is normal. If those were the issues those urologists were talking about, they are wrong. Remember, doctors in the US are taught nothing about the normal foreskin except how to cut it off.

[colemansasod]

Something else, when I discovered my penis, which was much later than probably every other guy on the planet, around about puberty I think, I distinctly recall stinging whilst experimenting with masturbation. I'd never retracted my foreskin before that time, proving at least to me that 1, the foreskin does not need to be retracted for cleaning before puberty and that newborns glans do indeed experience a stinging sensation during circumcission, as if the screams were not a strong a enough clue!

[seyxlondon]

Well said america is sick to circumcise babies.

It is monstrous.

[staffwaterboy]

i like this ron

[nissehayek]

great song stop cuitting babies now!!!

[Ryan18181]

I totally agree sleeping with people whos status you dont know about is asking for trouble. Obviously having tears in the skin is going to increase likelyhood of transmission. I cant think of any good reason to perform circumcision.

[karlira11]

Saying circumcision is the way of preventing HIV/AIDS is the purest kind of brainwash! We already know that even circumcised men can get HIV/AIDS too. If you proven that circumcision really prevents HIV/AIDS, all circumcised males never gets HIV/AIDS, even they have sex more several partners. Only have more several partners is the way to contracting HIV/AIDS, not being an uncircumcise!

[amadeus2490]

The majority of HIV infections are caused by unprotected anal sex, or unclean blood transfusions. Neither of these major causes have anything to do with whether or not you have skin over your penis.

[Ryan18181]

Infact the extra foreskin makes it less liekly to cause any tears which could allow for any nastys to infect you.

[amadeus2490]

"infact the extra foreskin makes it less liekly to cause any tears which could allow for any nastys to infect you." Could you show your source(s) on this information, please? Unbiased studies show that the virus DOES stick to the inner skin of the prepuce, but I feel that the only way to truly reduce likelihood of contracting the virus is to not have sex with HIV+ people in the first place. "To prevent AIDS" is just about the dumbest reason to consider circumcision.

[TheYellowtulip]

@amadeus2490 A cut man can get aids by getting his partners fluids inside his urethra so how is cutting the foreskin prevent that even if it did stick to the inner skin of the prepuce.

[jslasher1]

@karlira11 Tell that to the stupid Yanks, who are presently the only Western nation to endorse this barbaric practice.

[pharmasteve]

Why on earth have there not been any individuals taking legal action against parents and surgeons because of the mutilation that was inflicted upon them??

Is there anyone reading this who has been circumcised and has subsequently tried to fight a case? I would love to know.

[intactivist1]

Look at the video Circumcision Lawsuit

[amadeus2490]

They show a guy in "Penn and Teller's Bullshit!" that sued the doctor that performed his circumcision and won the case.

[rationalway]

And what did he win? Money? That penis butching child molester should be in prison for more than 15 years!

[Komsip]

In some countries, South Africa, Vietnam and maybe soon New Zealand there are laws against mutilation of both sexes. In Sweden, where I live there is an organisation that works against child circumcision (consisting mainly of iranian immigrants and swedes). It's still legal here but at least now they require a medical professional to do it and to use anaesthesia, which is at least better than nothing, I hope it will be banned completely though (for kids that is, adults should be free).

[colemansasod]

In public hospitals no boys can be s circumcised at birth, the Dr refuse to do it and the Government won't allow it. Private hospitals are a different story, they can do whatever they like, or whatever the parents like it seems. But how can it be that parents are not allowed to hit children, that is finally against the law here (NZ), but can consent to circumcising their boys without anesthetic, if they can find a Dr to do it. Totally illogical!

[AlanPaladin]

..what is this? ..good singing, good job.

[inluvwac]

It is the maker of TLC Tugger!

Go to his website to understand more on how to restore your foreskin (if you are circumcised).

Nice job Ron!

[james3d]

Yeah! Sing out TLC Tugger, bring us to an new era of enlightment and end genital mutilation of all children.
