My sister's husband is going in next week to have a circumcision performed. He is 28 years old. Being circumcised myself, I'm not sure what his reasoning is behind it. My sister said his parents chose not to have him circumcised when he was born due to religious factors. This procedure, when performed on an adult male, is supposed to be pretty painful so I guess someone would have to really want it done in order to deal with the recovery. Are you circumcised, and if not, do you wish you were?
WTF?????? This is a totally unecessary thread...... NSFW.....NSFW.... NOT SAFE FOR LIFE ! One question, is your sister going to kiss his boo boo every night until it is all better? DD
Haha. I really didn't find it that odd of a topic but I might be alone on that. Mods, feel free to close this thread if need be.
I think in America it's more "normal" to be circumcised. Probably more attractive for American girls. But in most European and Asian countries I would think it's less common...and not so much of a big deal. Obviously the decision isn't made by the person because they are well, a baby. So the parents/guardian make the choice. His decision is probably based on social issues....perhaps his wife.
I am. However, I did not have my son circumcised. Only one of my friends who has a son had the procedure done on his offspring. I think in the US (esp. "progressive" places like Austin and CA) folks are trending away from this barbaric practice. I am not a supporter of genital mutilation. How/why would an adult volunteer for this???!!!
The way they do it here in the US is not good cuz they remove some skin. You should do the german cut so all teh sensitive skins are still intact.
yup...health and i'm sure he is self conscience about it. Who knows, maybe the dude has some freakishly long skin going on. But still, doing this as an adult would be tough. Would be interested to hear the ladies opinions.
for those that wish they werent...why? because you feel you got slighted? Do you really want to have to deal with it?
Foreskin helps in a lot of ways, sex included. Sure, it needs a few moments more of attention in the bathroom, but who'd begrudge that to their most prized possession? Unless he's doing it for religious reasons, i'd bet against their relationship lasting healthily.
Same here. We decided to let our son decide on his own if he wanted to cut a few square inches off his penis skin. *shudder* As for the 'its healthier' aspect...That's bulsh in the U.S. I have a friend with a PhD in microbiology who says it isn't less healthy except in third world countries where people don't bathe on a regular basis. I also worked in a Pediatrics department of a hospital for six years and not a single Pediatrician I talked to agreed that it was a necessary procedure.
1) I doubt he's doing it for religious reasons at this age. Maybe, but I doubt it. 2) It's not just third world countries where lack of circumcision leads to problems. It happens, and I've heard many stories of parents that thought it was a good idea not to do it or thought they'd let the child choose (when is a good age to know on your own, if here we are and adults are still discussing it?), then regretted it later when the child needed it done later and suffered through it at an older age. 3) Daedelus - Bet against the relationship "lasting healthily" unless it was done for religious reasons? There is so much wrong with this I can't even begin. 4) In before Ronny comes and tells us how everyone should be doing things, how his idea is right, how America does it wrong, and how real women from other countries agree with him.
