Men, post your rants for or against circumcision.

[The Woodsman]

Sour grapes? Over what exactly?

Yer ticked that a nation of circumcised ex-Brits is leading the way in everything important in the world: sports, science, arts, technology, fast cars, and airplanes The reason is that Brits have to spend so much time scrubbing their uncircumcised dicks and getting gooned afterward that they don't have time to think. This is the real reason that Brits are so retarded as a cultural force in the world. Brits even had to hire Germans to show them how to build a Rolls-Royce. The sour grapes is that you spend too much time thinking up reasons why a nation of circumcised guys shouldn't be the great leaders that they really are.

What a troll.

If any of my boys want to (one has shown an interest) then they can.

Oh??? Who has asked. What are u going to do about it.

My second eldest (aged 16) has asked about it. If he wants it done he can have it done. I'll gladly book it, pay for it, take him for it, and look after him. I don't mind that at all. All he has to do is say the word.

Some might know my eldest (aged 18 ) is circumcised, due to having phimosis.

As I said, if they want it, they can have it.

This is what I was on about before when I said it may have been easier and better to have had them all done as infants.

gdgd.

and what about the others???

[The Colonel]

We'll have to see.

Better than being a retarded troll interupting a thread.

Phimosis is not a good reason for cutting a foreskin off, there are several ways to loosen the tight ring of muscle at the tip of the penis. You then get a fully retractable foreskin, with the Taylor ridged band, and the sensory nerves being retained.

Not in my son's case.

Or mine. Do you think the doctor just says 'ok then we will whip it off' the first time you go and see him? My son was under the hospitals care for nearly 2 years before his consultant said 'yes, lets whip it off'. He had various things to do to try and get it to go back on its own but it wouldnt. Sometimes there is nothing you can do. Im sure the Colonels son had a similar experiance.

Well, Mooncat does actually have a point.

Some doctors are inexperienced. And in the U.S they simply don't bother, it's a circumcision or nothing. So, Mooncat is correct to an extent.

However, in some cases other treatments just aren't possible. My eldest son (who was 15 at the time, and now 18.) had a bad case where glans could not be seen at all, and the foreskin was so tight it looked like a refuge sack tied up with string. Urine used to spray everywhere, it would balloon, and urine would get trapped in the foreskin during urination and dribble out later on (looking like he'd wet himself). As a result of this, he got infections, which were painful for him. Also, he had to constantly put a piece of loo roll in his pants after going to wee to collect the urine that would leak out afterwards.

In addition, erections were painful for him as the skin would not retract but tighten, and being that he was at "that age" it became very upsetting for him. However, since his circumcision there haven't been any problems and he is very happy with the result. In hindsight, it would have been better had he been circumcised at birth to avoid the pain before and after the operation, but these things we just can't predict.

I know there are steriod creams, and also a dorsal slit that can be done. However, my son's case was bad. There was no way either of them would have worked. My wife is a GP, and there is no way she'd have allowed him to have it done if it could have been sorted otherwise (I mean, no parent would put a kid through a skin graft rather than get spot cream - if you see what I mean).

As I am circumcised, my wife wasn't too concerned about it, and it also reassured him to know I was.

My youngest, Andrew, has had a few urine infections. But nothing to the extent that Ryan had.

So, Mooncat does make a valid point, but circumcision is sometimes necessary for phimosis.

"Do you think men should be circumcised just cos women dont like knobcheese?"

What kind of question is that?
No wonder most people voted no...

I was circumsized as a baby for medical reasons. Am I bothered? NO... I've had absolutely no problems and most girls I have been with certainly enjoy it.

Nonsense.

That is completely up to my wife.

Whatever she decides.
