    You'd only feel awkward about it if your partner is immature + you have self-esteem issues.

    Sorry, it's harsh, but that's the only way i think i can look at it. Obviously, i'm not circumsized.

    What exactly is there to deal with? 10 extra seconds cleaning yourself in the shower?

    that's not true at all. Being self conscience about something has nothing to do with other people. It is the pressure a person puts on themself, and cannot be solved by someone just saying "it's ok".



    How do you know what the person has or hasnt done? Regardless, if the guy is so keen on doing this, then why would the partner stop him? It would seem to me, a partner supports would support you.

    I agree that there's no way the guy is just "voluntarily" doing this.

    This is very true. If you think you are too fat, or you penis is too small, does your wife telling you that you are fine really make you feel that much better about it? She (hopefully) loves you, she would probably lie to you anyways if she knew you were were self conscience about it.

    I don't have any experience either, but in theory, it seems like "maintenance" of it would not be any more difficult than any other body part.

    I've been snipped and I don't see what the big deal is with circumsion either way. I don't remember having it done but knowing my parents I suspect it was done for health reasons which was the norm decades ago when I was born. As other posters noted I don't think that is an issue any more.

    As for doing it as an adult that is elective surgery and I would rather not have any surgeries if they can be avoided.

    At least guys who are uncircumcised can choose what they want.

    I don't know what's wrong with this guy though. He will regret it, especially if he gets it done by American doctors.

    Let me know when I'm right.

    No kidding. I didn't subject my son to this procedure and I think that any adult dude seriously considering it has to be certifiably INSANE!

    I don't get why some people feel like they have been "wronged" or "cheated" when their parents did it to them at birth. :confused:

    All the propaganda surrounding circumsicision (especially the "hygiene" aspect) is from clergy men in the olden days wanting to curb sexual inhibitions and promiscuity. Supposedly guys without foreskin feel less sensation than those that have it, so they can better control their sexual urges. It has nothing to do with "health", that was the popular notion in the 70's and 80's in America based on absolutely nothing but circumsizion rates have dropped dramatically since then.

    However, the majority of good looking women who can afford to act with a sense of entitlement would prefer chopped to non-chopped. It goes hand in hand with the ideals for human beauty - tight and form fitting. We don't find 60 year olds with turkey necks attractive. We don't find vagine's that hang like a wizard sleeve attractive. And we definitely don't find underarm or gut flab attractive.

    I think the decision needs to be made in the first year of a kid's life or not made at all... although I have a couple of muslim friends who had it done in their teens. What is his exact reasoning, OP?
