Foreskin or Cut?

Post by apocolypse »

Okay, I was reading the J/O thread and got to thinking....How many guys here are cut vs. un-cut, and do you like being cut or un-cut? I'm circumsized, but sometimes I wish I hadn't been, just because I'm kinda curious as to what it woulda been like. OTOH, the whole "foreskin restoration" thing is kinda wierd to me....anyway, have at it. :D

You can bring a sharp instrument near my penis after you've used it to hack off my arms and legs, thus giving me no means to repel you.

I'm circumsized. I was like less then a week old, so I don't have any gripes about it.

I'm not real big on the "One-eyed Snake" appearence, anyway.

Then there's the fact that when you're uncircumsized, there's the chance of certain problems developing, and getting snipped as an adult isn't something I'd want to look forward too.

Yep, had it when I was 8 days old.

And besides, doesn't the foreskin produce carcinogens?

Sometimes it can be at a higher risk for infections. There's also the occasional occurance where it's too tight during an erection, even to the point where the skin can break. The only way to fix it is to be circumsized at a later age.

Then there's the whole maintainence deal with the damn thing, IIRC...

As a baby a doctor did 'snip the tip' so to say. If I still had the forskin now and someone said they're going to snip it off then I'd probably deck them

Paul argued against circumcision. It's more of a Jewish tradition IMO, though some Christians do now have circumcision done.

My fault. However, most Catholics, it seems, go with circumcision.

np. I didn't realize Catholics went for circumcision...interesting.

Of course, I might be wrong there, too.

I am cut and Ver is right, many Catholics go for circumcision and it was done when I was a few days old. However, having seen a video of it done on a small infant, I don't know if I can inflict that on my son. That was one of the things I fretted about before I knew I was having a daughter. I didn't know if I could go through having my son cut.

Anyway, I like the look, very clean cut.

Me = former Catholic.

Maybe a difference in American Catholics and European Catholics?

I'm inclined to agree with Ver, as I was cut for the same reason.

:?

I'm guessing it's one of the differences.. The portuguese Church does not condone that. I would have been circuncised, I'm sure, if that wasn't the case. And it's hard to even know anyone who has performed that operation.
