If you're unhappy about being circumcised, please support foregen.org. They are trying to make regeneration of the foreskin a possibility in the near future.
@Bonobo3D Right now they've contacted a couple of laboratories to do the research. The science is there; they are ready to proceed with the laboratory trials, but need money to fund the research. It seems like a lot of money to one person, but if every circumcised guy in America donated $1 they would be able to fund the research a hundred times over. The plan is to have the technology ready for human use by 2013. This is our best chance. Even if takes a couple of years, it will be worth it.
@zerth11 I am hopeful for this technology (it seems likely it will inevitable happen) but skeptical of its chances that soon.
"if every circumcised guy in America donated $1 ..." That's a big "IF" Most men who were cut as babies are unaware and unwilling to understand what was taken from them. There is a lot of work to be done first getting the average person to understand the harm of circumcision.
@Bonobo3D Very true - their plan isn't to rely on donations alone, but that would certainly help the process go faster. At least there are more avenues for the information to get out now. I doubt so many parents would have gone along with circumcision in the past if they would have had access to the research and online resources we have today.
@key0bb Your father is the best to decide what's best for your penis, if your mum would have been informed she would have eagerly consented to having you circumcised.
@DrKurzman No, I, Myself should be the only one who decides what happens to my penis. If I feel the need to mutilate my penis I can still have this done. Babies do not have this choice.
i would never circumcise a child. seeing it being done to the boys int this video is actually making me wanna puke because i hate seeing people in pain. i can't believe any parent with a heart would do that to their child. especially without anesthesia. to see any kid in that kind of pain, it's literally making me sick. to mutilate a child's genitalia is completely unnecessary.
Intactivists are against forced circumcision, surgery without consent. Children need to be protected by law from genital reducing surgeries imposed upon them. Adults should be able to make informed choices about their own bodies. The whole issue and controversy of circumcision ends when we respect the basic human right of every infant and child.
@Gumbee65 You're just downplaying the immense benefits of child circumcision with your insistence on human rights, what about the human rights of the parents to have a son with a nice clean-cut willy. And it's more hygienic. It somehow makes the penis more aesthetic and appealing to woman.
What about the parents rights to cut off their daughters labia - you know for that clean vulva look? Don't those parents have rights? yeesh! Sarcasm people :)
@DrKurzman There is,, a strong tendency to deny that any loss occurred. Minimization of the loss is a common defense mechanism; ridicule of the subject is another. Persons who have lost body parts must grieve their loss.[41] Failure to grieve and accept the loss puts one in permanent denial of loss.[42]

@DrKurzman "defending circumcision requires minimizing or dismissing the harm and producing overstated medical claims about protection from future harm. The ongoing denial requires the acceptance of false beliefs and misunderstanding of facts. These psychological factors affect professionals ... the avoidance of guilt and the reluctance to acknowledge the mistake and all that it implies help explain the tenacity with which the practice is defended." Ronald Goldman Ph.D.
HEY "DOCTOR" POLLACK...GO HAVE SEX WITH AN AIDS INFECTED PROSTITUTE WITH NO CONDOM, and see if it 'prevents' you from getting AIDS. YOU GODDAMN BUTCHER!
Tradition is NOT a reason to continue this! Why not keep 'traditions' like stoning women for adultery, infant sacrfice and skull drilling too?
Any doctor or anyone who does this is a butcher, and is not abiding by the Hyopcratic oath to 'do no harm'. Chilling to see how nonchalantly doctors can mutilate a baby and not think twice. They don't have ANY thinking (or compassion) going on when they do this to a helpless newborn!
Although, I do respect the opinion and views of individuals ... I just don't think this should be treated like such a crime. My parent's are evil for circumcising me. They just did what they thought was best for me. And like I said ... I have absolutely nothing against my circumcised penis. :-]
No, your parents weren't evil... probably just didn't think about it much. And I'm glad you're happy with your willy. I just think men should be allowed to make this decision for themselves, rather than having it made for them at birth. :)
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
I really think this is quite silly. Men with an emotional attachment to a foreskin. Possibly blaming their own sexual impotence because there were "Robbed" of the holy foreskin!!! ooooOOOoooo. I am circumcised. I have no problems with "sensitivity" or " foreskin deprivation " ... I feel perfectly fine. I'm healty. I'm pretty sure i've never suffered any sort of consequence from it. If anything I like it. I'm certain I would have chosen circumcision as well. I just this is getting ridiculous.
"Possibly blaming their own sexual impotence because there were "Robbed" of the holy foreskin!!! "
NO. Because their genitals were mutilated as a child without their consent. That;s fine you are fine with it, doesn't mean infant circumcision should be condoned! Your parents were fooled by the doctors and that's why there are people educating others about this, because this practice should stop!
^^Possibly blaming their own sexual impotence because there were "Robbed" of the holy foreskin!!! ooooOOOoooo^^
Google "Shane's circumcision nightmare" and tell me what he should blame his impotence on?
You ^^feel perfectly fine^^. Good for you! Google "I think this child has an infected penis after neonatal circumcision". I wonder how he is doing now.
The ^^ridiculous^^ thing is doctors are allowed to do this to baby boys.
Of course it's illegal to restrain someone and perform a non-therapeautic amputation of a healthy normal body part to suit someone else's cosmetic taste.
Just enforce the laws against kidnapping, assault, battery, and mayhem.
It should certainly be malpractice to amputate something without a diagnosis of defect or pathology, and without trying less drastic steps first.
Foreskin feels REALLY good. HIS body HIS decision.
@DrKurzman - No national medical association on earth (not even Israel's) endorses routine circumcision. The most recently updated policies (Holland's, Australia's) condemn it.
From the KNMG web site: "Doctors,.. actively and insistently inform parents who are considering the procedure of the absence of medical benefits and the danger of complications" and "There are good reasons for a legal prohibition of non-therapeutic circumcision of male minors."

!. Until the human rights of the child is held at the forefront, all of the "discussion" is just a smoke screen.
2. The statutes forbidding such practice should be enforced forthwith. Let's see some of the mutilators behind bars where they belong.

Circumcised penis looks better smells better and protects against all kinds of disease ! Foreskin is gross there is no debating this.

Oh wow, thanks for your OPINION. Yes, aesthetics can be debated, just wow!
Gumbee65 1 year ago
@DrKurzman Who cares about smell? who cares about cosmetics?
it is the function that is important, cutting of your foreskin like the removal of the eye lid, detracts form the primary function of those parts.
circumcision does not prevent diseases. In the future I will be messaging you some research that prove other wise.
you are circumcised and you circumcised your sons, your bias is already revealed.
