If you never wash your cock and always have unprotected secks, then yes, it does sound like circumcised is better. Basically, there may be a benefit if you're filthy and irresponsible, or if you love the juice.

don't be prepuceterous. yes, hygiene and safe(r) sex practices are more important, but i say whatever helps. never had unprotected sex? never busted a condom?

it's one of those things that has roots in religion and i think that the new class of overeducated and self absorbed neo hippies shun it because of that.
 
To answer the question of, "Circumcision is it necessary?"

Of course not. We've evolved millions of years with foreskins.

I'm sure there are people who shun it for that, and people who love it to shun to people who shun it, and people who shun the people who love it to shun the people who shun it. Both sides read like fear mongering. You gonna get AIDS! You gonna have dirty kawk! They're gonna cut off your kawk! You gonna die! I think it's one of those things where both sides of the argument are getting excited over something with a 0.00000000000x% likelihood. In which case, why choose the side where you have to cut your kid's kawk?

actually, i would say that up to 60% reduction in F to M HIV transmission, as purported by the WHO is QUITE FRIGGING SIGNIFICANT.

so it's painful. life is pain, sorry. go hug it out in a drum circle.

Might as well not shave too, it's natural that way

I think a more accurate parallel would be "why not perform a surgical procedure that makes it so your kid never has to shave, he might get food stuck in it, or die from infections that are hidden under the hair".

Don't forget, 4 is 60% reduction from 10, which isn't very much when sampled from ten billion. I don't know the sample size, do you? That's the fun thing about statistics, there's a scurry number to support everything and it's unwise to accept data when you only receive 1/10th of the information.

dude, all things considered, if all of these public health authorities are saying it reduces STD transmission, why would i listen to you and a bunch of twits whose only defense is 'it's moar sensitive' or 'it hertz poor lil baby boys'?
 
You should take in all info, look at the data presented, look at the quality and completeness of the data, think about what makes sense to yourself, then decide for your kid. Simple.

hey i'm not the one posting 'hey, i'm uncut and wicked secure in my manhood'..that'd be you...i've just made this my pet project to try and get the uncircumcised dudes less play once women realize that they are filthy and disease ridden. which is kind of ridiculous considering that barf is a sausage party, but rest assured, dog dicks, i will be pushing this issue in real time now that my eyes have been opened.

but seriously, because i've had close calls with std's and am a single guy, so i don't appreciate people making stupid choices just because they don't want to hurt poor lil juniors wanker.
 
One thing that really struck me when I moved here is the apparent fixation on and persistent search for... err, how to put this....


......switching to David Attenborough voice ......


.... here goes.....ahem....

"tightness"

US porn and the more puerile locker room chat, seems to indicate an acute desire of the cut male to find a tight partner and/or a partner who will "TIITB".

As an observer one has to wonder if there is a correlation between this desire and the loss of sensation resulting from circumcision?

Anecdotally, there does seem to be a much lower fixation on PIITB in uncut cultures :thumbup

I ignore your antics 99.9% of the time. I just thought it was amusing you were accusing Hooli of something contradictory to what he had actually posted previously.
