re: Circumcision

Christians originally circumcised boys/men to "keep them from masturbation"

hhaaahhhh that made me laugh

Quoting Rebekah *Pregnant with #2:“ because they don't want to 'hurt' their baby.... they think its unnecessary for some reason. I think ... [snip!] ... for some reason. I think its sad, because 9 out of 10 men who are uncircumsized will Wish or want to be circumsized as a man.”

That is very untrue because previous surveys showed the same % of men both cut or uncut were satified with their status. Most people base their beliefs on superstition rather than facts. The only men who will want or wish they were circed are only those who suffer medical problems and the % is very small. The foreskin was not meant to be cut off otherwise it would not have been there to begin with just like the clitoral hood.

Quoting nahlakalley ♥ team:“ i dont get it either.. its actually better to do it.. that way he wont be at risk for an infection”

Women get infections too but yet no one recommends genital surgery to prevent it. If it isn't broken why fix it? What about the risks and disadvantages?

Its a choice and just like getting a c section, even tho it has cons, people still do it don't they?my sons father isn't circumcised just like most of his family and friends and he has never had an issue with it.if you don't 'get' why people don't choose to do it then you don't 'get' that we all have different cultures and traditions.

sometimes you don't get to choose a c-section
