If you had kids...

If you had kids would you get them circumsized or not?I would being it would be easier on the kid and being alot more cleaner.Also them not having to stretch it and clean it would probaly make their teen years a little easier

Certainly not. But I would make sure that they start trying to retract from an early age (about 4 is about right, in my opinion), so that they don't have problems later. I believe that many of the problems that teenage boys have with tight foreskins is because they never tried to pull their skin back when they were younger, usualyy because they were never taught how to do this.

Yea what Zobo said.

Although some kids, like me, will figure it out on their own.

Cleanliness won't be an issue if the parent shows them how.

I had problems with my foreskin, but I wouldn't give my boy the snip. Also, although I wasn't able to retract for a long time, I never had any problems with cleanliness. And now that I can retract properly I still have no problems.

If I had kids - no I wouldn't have them cut. Its all about teaching sons how to care for and understand their penis. We'd talk about retraction and keeping things clean. It really is no big deal when we understand how an uncut penis works. Parents just don't understand or take the time to educate their sons on being uncut - and too many docs see circumcision as "routine".....

I would not unless my child wants to or if his foreskin is too tight or somthin like that

Since I seen both sides being uncut and now cut. I would circumcise my son.

No way!

No way! When he's an adult and if he wants to get circumcised then, it will be his choice. I'm not going to deny him of that choice as a baby when he is incapable of making that decision. There is absolutely nothing wrong with a foreskin that requires it to be removed. It's natural, and serves numerous benefitial functions, and it just seems stupid to cut off a perfectly healthy body part that has a purpose. If a problem develops later on with the foreskin (not likely), then I would deal with it then as a responsible parent would. As for the cleanliness thing, that is completely ridiculous. That's like cutting off the ears because ear wax can build up and needs to be cleaned periodically. Or cutting off the tips of the fingers so fingernails can't grow because bacteria does grow under fingernails and they need to be cleaned too. Keeping the penis clean under a foreskin is easier than washing your hair, so what is the big deal?

When I have kids, I'll have the circumcised.Unlike some people on this site, I think god everyday I have been circumcised. I PERSONALLY (yes my opinion no need to debate it lol) think it looks better and is cleaner.

**Im really surprised at you Eddie, I didn't think you would think like that, I really don't get how a cut dick looks nicer than uncut, i personally like to suck on my mans foreskin, so hey im all for em LOL
As for being cleaner, isn't the foreskin there for a reason? If you don't wash often i would say your penis is likely to smell horrid foreskin or not *eeeeewwwww*
I can safely say i would never have put my boys through something as barbaric as a circumcision for no good reason. **

Like I said it's just my personal opinion hun. I know there are people who don't have the same opinion as me.. and I'm groovy with that. =-D

In reply to:Unlike some people on this site, I think god everyday I have been circumcised. I PERSONALLY (yes my opinion no need to debate it lol) think it looks better and is cleaner. That's fine that you think a circumcised penis looks better and you have the opinion (true or not) that it is cleaner, and you are happy with your cut penis. You're entitled to your own opinion and that's OK. What the issue here is, why do you feel you have to force YOUR opinion of how a penis should look on your helpless newborn child? Your newborn boy is incapable of making an educated decision about circumcision. Did you ever stop and think, maybe your son will grow up and wish he was uncut, and that he thinks having a foreskin is better than not having one? It happens all the time actually. I'm an example of that myself - I was circumcised when I was a baby because my parents thought it was the 'cool thing to do' and because most other parents were doing the same to their boys. That was the only thing involved in their decision. I'm not bitter about my circumcision, unlike some anti-circ people. I'm totally pleased with my penis and it provides me with more pleasure than I can possibly handle. I do really wish I were uncut. But the biggest issue I have is that I wasn't given the choice. My parents made a stupid decision on my behalf during a time when I had no choice, no input. They took a 50/50 chance that I would grow up and like my cut status. They were wrong. But the bigger issue is they took a chance that didn't need to be taken in the first place, as I was born with a perfectly healthy foreskin. If there is a medical reason (i.e. problem) to circumcise, then that's one thing. But removing a perfectly healthy body part without the consent of its owner is just wrong, IMO. If it were just as easy to put back the full foreskin as it is to cut it off, I wouldn't have as much of an issue with circumcision, because then you could reverse it and no harm, no foul. But you can't. Once the foreskin is removed, it will NEVER be intact again. You can't reverse it. I think most parents who choose to circumcise their babies don't think through all of this. They do it based only on their own selfish personal opinions, and they are not informed decisions.

Focus I didn't even read your winded post. As I have said it's my opinion and it's not open for debate... sorry. I have debated this in the past and I will not get into it again.I respect your opinion, so respect mine. Thanks!

Yes, I find it just looks better, and I for one am quite happy to be cut.

I think you should read his post. It's not so much to do with your opinion, just personal choice.

Thanks for the advice but I have heard it before. isn’t the first time focus has stated his opinion on circumcision.

Yes I would because I have. I have 2 boys and they are both cut.

Why did you have them cut???

I feel like it is the right thing to do.
