Great honest facts, studies, and information without using any of the biased superstitious misinform...ation used to fool week minded religious fanatics. See More
The site contains a lot of bullshit especially in respect of loss of sensation etc. I had myself cut... when I was 19. I was armed with all sorts of medical nonsense for why; I later realized that I had had cosmetic surgery done. I liked the circumcised look, not to mention that in that time and place I'd only seen maybe one other uncircumcised penis and so mine looked "different". I did not experience all this sensory loss that is babbled on about. (Masturbation required a bit of a different technique what with not being able to slide the glans within a slippery sheath, but overall I certainly felt no real loss). Nearly 50 years later, do I regret having it done? No. Would I do it again? I dunno, maybe, maybe not. I certainly did not have my son circumcised as I believe such a thing should be an individual decision. Babies should never have it done to them. But, well, with all that said, I like my dick and how it looks. C'est la vie. Ahem, but why am I being given 4 stars for this comment? It should be one at best. Typically, more bullshit. See More
