I'm gonna guess any guy who wishes he was circumcised would just get circumcised. And the only percentage that is relevant is the ones who wish they had not been.

Re: Recent circumcizion ruling in Germany

lol no. if i wasn't circumcised i'd be afraid to show my peen to a girl (as they all think its gross not to be circumcised, sorry to anyone this applies to), but i also wouldn't be willing to go through that type of surgery at this point in my life. super glad it was done when i had nothing better to do with my time at 1 year old (or whenever)

Re: Recent circumcizion ruling in Germany

^+2. Dealing with that whole thing was traumatizing enough without having to worry about having a weird dick. Also, as I've noted, the recovery for a circ when you're a teen or adult is orders of magnitude more painful and onerous than as a baby.

I don't get this. It's not like you're putting your penis on display. Generally there is some type of friction based goal in mind that is not going to be hindered at all by the look of your penis at that point.

Re: Recent circumcizion ruling in Germany

If the porn industry is any indicator, foreskins remain pretty undesirable.

Re: Recent circumcizion ruling in Germany

LOL @ thinking girls are gonna be all grossed out by this. Once you stop banging girls who are 15, they don't really care. And in a few years, the ones who are 15 are gonna be banging 15 year old guys who are mostly uncirced.

Re: Recent circumcizion ruling in Germany

I don't think the politards sausage fest is the best place to speculate about female opinions on foreskins. Might be a good 4L thread. Probably already been done.

I guess the point I'm trying to make is that the amount of pain, misery, suffering, resentment, and depression that is caused from physical abuse completely dwarfs the amount of that caused by circumcision.

Right, I don't think anyone is arguing that people, outside of that crazy dude who made the foreskin comic, are really damaged by circumcision. It's just a marking exercise that serves no functional purpose. It's like clipping off a useless portion of your ear to mark that you're a part of a club.

What about parents who get their 1 year old's ears pierced?

Foreskin Man is still by far my favorite comic, it really may be the most awesome thing I've ever seen. It would be epic if the author is trolling but that doesn't seem to be the case.
One of the funnier things I have seen in a while.



Wow, this is awesome.

i feel exactly this way. i am glad i am circumsized, think i would feel weird about having not been circumsized, yet would not have had it done as an adult.

to me, it is a neutral decision in terms of ethics. more a cosmetic procedure than anything. and as far as cosmetic procedures go, i don't think there is anything wrong with having them done to children merely to fit in with cultural norms. in my view the tattoo example fails, it only works because it implies future potential ostracization, while circumcision doesn't have that concern. for now anyway.
