Look just like Dad, by matching genitalia?

Sons don't mind if they dont look like their fathers.

Looking like Dad seems to be the most important reason to cut babies in America — but how similar is a tiny, prepubescent penis to Dads, anyway? Toddlers are smart. Try explaining that everyone is unique and body parts all look different. Tell him that Dad had to have an operation on his penis but now it is okay. After all, you already have to explain why Mom looks different, don't you?

Circumcision violates infants rights.

Before deciding on circumcision you may want to consider your sons rights. An article published in Humane Health Care International explains that circumcision of infants is a violation of the seven principles of medical ethics. Following the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child in 1989, the AAP Committee on Bioethics stated that parents have the right to grant permission for diagnosis and treatment, but they do not have the right to decide on elective procedures for their children. These should be postponed until the child is able to choose them for himself. The committee also mentions that parents rights to force religious practices that could be harmful to the child should be limited. In contrast, the AAP official policy statement allows the parents to make the decision.

An uncircumcised penis is easily cared for.

It seems that the problems that people blame on foreskins actually stem from improper care of the uncircumcised penis. To quote the AAP, good personal hygiene would offer all the advantages of routine circumcision without the attendant surgical risk. Since the AAP gives no instruction in the matter, many doctors advise parents to force back the foreskin and clean underneath. Actually, the best mode of action is to leave it alone. A soak in a warm bath is all it needs during infancy. As the boy grows, the foreskin will naturally separate from the glans (somewhere between the ages of 3 and 13), and he may then pull it back and clean underneath it with clear water. The full process of separation is usually finished by age 18.

"if our civilization crumbled over night where would all your cleaning be ?' The same place it has been for millions of years--IF stupid people did not abuse the normal penis..

BTW, one does not need to clean it every day...just a nicety.

On a personal note, it is difficult not to call stupid the stupid remarks some come and make here after the umpteenth time.

[exavaris]

This, I for one would be very upset having skin break down or have a nurse tugging at my sore penis in a nursing home trying to put the head back in im not sayin I am against or opposed to your opinions but to call people stupid because of there decisions or beliefs dose not help your cause it undermines it, you do have good points but perhaps looking at it with different eyes and a open mind would make your debait more palpable to people like me and not insulting a country or a religious group.

[exavaris]

@tandykane if our civilization crumbled over night where would all your cleaning be ?and more so where would your medication be ? If you camp track through the rain forest or are stuck in a dire situation what good would it do I can tell you now it would do no good at all, steroids of any kind are a very good treatment I agree cleaning also agreed but as far as always doing this every day of your life, impossible one circumstance would be the final years of your life when you are unable to do th

[Tandykane]

@exavaris

Phimosis is extremely rare if the penis is not fiddled with--AND easily remedied by simple steroid creams and/or stretching.

Come back when you have a rational reason.

[Tandykane]

@exavaris

Oh, cmon, you have no idea how many anecdotes I have heard about so and so having such and such a problem..and all of these "horror stories" consist of problem easily cured by medical means and not amputation.

Now if you want to play tit for tat, I can provide hundreds of DOCUMENTED cases of real horrors FROM circumcision--including DEATH.

Intelligent people WASH the thing! Retract, rinse, replace!

Circumcision is STUPID!

[exavaris]

His foreskin it would bleed ultimately he had his foreskin removed and three years latter no problems with his penis its not just for looks in most cases its for sanitary reasons and to remove the need for all the cleaning just to go to have a worry free urine you see there are reasons and Im thankful my parents got mine done its not all abought mutilation as you call for fun in some cases its a medical reason and most its for sanitary reasons people bleach there teeth people cut there hair

[exavaris]

@tandykane I just don't understand why it is such a big issue Im cut and don't remember it ever happening I have no ptsd from it, now my cousin how ever is un cut and throughout is 22 years he had had infection after infection had to go to the hospital 3 times because his foreskin got stuck behind the head they had to sedate him to put it back ,and as boys he always was fighting with build up ,one of the many urinary tract infection he had was so bad he had to be cathed and when he cleaned under

[Tandykane]

@exavaris

Perhaps you didn't realize that I am not singling out any group as being stupid--but any and all groups that do it are stupid BECAUSE it is stupid to be doing a stupid practice.

[exavaris]

can your country say the same about woman probably not your probably from one of those country's where woman a seen and not herd or there place is at home and with ones like you I understand why they would shut the you down and keep you under control .

[exavaris]

@tandykane I stand corrected On the Jewish comment, it was my confusion, but to call one religious group and one countrys people stupid ,over a matter you have nothing to do with is like me a male saying your stupid for having an abortion after a rape, a female has the right to make her own choices bought her body and a male has that same right too,I am an American male and live in a country that excepts woman as an equal and live both have there own choices bought there body.

[Tandykane]

@exavaris

Sorry, but not Jewish... and never claimed to be.

And yes, circumcising Jews ARE stupid,circumcising Americans are stupid, anyone who circumcises is stupid--circumcision IS stupid!

[Tandykane]

@exavaris

Thanks for your opinion, but only opinions supported by valid evidence is worth considering.

[exavaris]

@Tandycane I just finished all the comments from this subject matter and you also called Jews stupid but state you are a Jewish youth leader of some kind, if you are part of the Jewish community they would have drop your idiot ass because you representing the Jews would shame them, I dare you to say what you think to a Jewish leader, on that note go change your tampon move to Africa and get your clit cut because that's the only thing that is going to remove the cunt in your stupidity .

[exavaris]

@Tandykane there is a post for you on you tube

[exavaris]

@Tandkane first and foremost I only voiced my opinion, cut men have less infection is easy to maintain,hardly ever get U.T.I. and a cut mail also don't get there penis head stuck outside of the excess skin a far as calling Americans stupid your an ignorant twit that can only think with your vagina from your country ,grow a penis ,and then you may have some room to talk ya bleeding offensive crack!

[Tandykane]

@exavaris

Only to the 20% that are ignorant of the normal penis--mainly Jews, Muslims, and some stupid Americans; to the other 80%, it is a great and enjoyable thing.

[exavaris]

Foreskin is nasty

[gameboy699]

@tropicreyn "normal"??? you insult people for not being @@@ thats just racist

[feministsAreCorrupt]

@tropicreyn " I am the Model Jew!"

Your case is notable (this is why I reply to you so often): a man that voluntarily chose circumcision as an adult is a recognized effective leader of two Jewish community organizations and a self-proclaimed model Jew. You are the model case for adult voluntary circumcision, even for those wanting to function as leaders of their religious community. You define the case against the routine infant circumcision ban.

[Tandykane]

@tropicreyn

You are a model, but not for any rational person-including Jews--thank god!

[feministsAreCorrupt]

@tropicreyn " The entire suction thing was Ultra Orthodox and is no long practice, other than through a straw."

Deaths and herpes infections of infants were reported as late as 2005 due to direct oral contact by mohels in New York City. These cases sheds light on the origins of religious circumcision : infant penis worship by homosexual and pedophilic religious figures. Parents went along with the cutting and sucking to show subservience to God to avoid exclusion by their organization.

[Tandykane]

@tropicreyn

You are one sick moron..so glad I have sane Jewish friends so you would not be my model for all Jews.

YOU and this mentality are one of the reasons why anti-antisemitism is rampant in the world and increasing.

[feministsAreCorrupt]

@tropicreyn " I don't need a book,"

It's not a surprise that you wouldn't bother to read a single book on the very topic you so adamantly defend. That's why your posts are primarily insults.

[feministsAreCorrupt]

@tropicreyn Eat some turkey. Watch an infant's penis cut. Bud, that's ill.  I'd never have my son's penis shown to a group of 100 people.
