Circumcision

[jedusor]

I can't believe this is even debatable. I can't believe that in a society we consider civilized, I have to actually present a structured argument against cutting off pieces of babies when they're born.

I'm bi as well. I've never met a man who wanted to be anything other than as he is, whether cut or uncut. And again, never heard directly from a cut man that he is less sensitive. At best, the argument is anecdotal.

There's plenty of stories around from people who have had it done in adulthood, but they mostly fall into two categories:

* Those who had it done by choice and claim little or no difference
* Those who had it done for medical reasons and are quite vocal about the reduced sensation etc

I suppose it all comes down to frame of mind really (there's a better way of saying that, but I'm too tired). If it's by choice you'll ignore any discomfort/reduced sensation and if it's not you're more likely to notice every little thing.
