Removing the foreskin is thought to harden the glans (head) of the penis, making it less permeable to viruses. Research carried out in 2005 showed the transmission of HIV from women to men during sex was reduced by 60 per cent if the men were circumcised.

You should be wearing a condom anyway.

You see, I'm not circumcised and I never have to lube up when I jerk off. Yet it appears I'm in a drastic minority.
Seriously, though, isn't it a little strange that we cut off part of the penis at birth? I for one am against female circumcision, and so I feel the need to be against male genital mutilation as well. Any thoughts?

isnt this a running joke in Arrested Development?

Baby seriously injured in circumcision
Mohel apparently cuts off part of baby's penis during circumcision in Bnei Brak. Baby rushed to hospital suffering from massive blood loss Meital Yasur-Beit Or Published: 02.04.07, 23:54

An eight-day old baby sustained serious injuries to his penis during a circumcision ceremony held at a Bnei Brak event hall Sunday evening.
The baby was rushed to the emergency room at the Sheba Medical Center, where he is currently undergoing surgery to stop the bleeding.
Following the bris and after the mohel (circumciser) had already left the building, the baby's parents noticed that his diaper was soaked with blood.
The parents phoned the mohel, who advised them to call an ambulance immediately, seeing that the baby has already lost a lot of blood.
The parents told the Magen David Adom paramedics who arrived at the place that although their son was suffering from hepatitis, they insisted on holding the bris on time. They also admitted that they had a hard time finding a mohel who would be willing to conduct the circumcision.
Shai Pinchas, an MDA paramedic, said he searched the hall for the baby's foreskin and the part of his penis that was cut off, and then brought them to the hospital in an ice bag.
"The baby was not in a serious condition and we brought him to the children's ward at Sheba. I assume that the mohel had cut too much of his penis during the circumcision," Pinchas said.

just thought id add... in some cultures in south america, circumsizion as well as other types of genital manipulation are common, and have been for years. ive seen pictures of statues from ancient cultures that have exaggerated mushroom shaped penises, which were clearly circumsized

[Mangle]

^^^ They've been mutilating female genitals for quite some time too. That doesn't make it any less wrong. When are we going to stop living like perverted barbarians and face up to the world we've made?

don't you have mutilations on your face?

That isn't mutilation, that is self-expression Mike, get it right.....

Although, people in other cultures have no idea how barbaric they are being by having their genitals circumcised. Even if it is their own notion. And this has absolutely nothing to do with self-expression.

I put those there. That's the difference, as opposed to cutting part of the penis off at birth when the child cannot form it's own opinion.
