not for my parents to read
An old friend came to town from New York, where she works as a nurse delivering babies. She asks incoming parents, “Have you made a decision about circumcision?”
“The worst answer,” she tells me, “is ‘Yes, of course. I think. Right honey?’”
San Francisco made the wacky liberal news for trying to ban circumcision for any male under 18 years of age. Isn’t that crazy? Why would you ban that?
Well, let me speak frankly. I’ve been circumcised. My penis is no longer an errogenous zone. I must think about killing my girlfriend in order to have a climax. Sexual intercourse is not sufficient stimulation. A doctor cut away a large part of the sensitive tissue on my sex organ. Now I have to use my mind. Fucking your wife with your mind isn’t what nature intended. The poor women must endure this insensitive inchoate jackrabbitting while you, the man, conjure up what it must feel like down there meanwhile imagining sexy thoughts from lingerie catalogs
“But look how long I can last,” says a friend. “If I wasn’t circumcised, it’d be over in 30 seconds.”
That’s exactly the point. Lasting all night means your penis is basically a wooden mallet that you hammer away at with. Is this what God intended? Oh, let’s not bring God into it, because that invites religion as well. And this whole thing is a religious thing.
Or is it? “It prevents disease,” say the supporters. For 90% of males, if you wash your penis regularly and correctly, you won’t have any problems. The fact I never have a urinary tract infection is not worth the trade off of needing a crack pipe, streaming porn with six windows open, and a length of rope tight around my neck in order to ejaculate.
UTI’s are common in women and they deal with it by drinking cranberry juice. I can drink juice too. It would bring me to a better understanding of their pain if we shared this common ailment.
I’ve used some hard language and portrayed some rough scenes, but we are talking about sex and I only have a few minutes. My circumcised penis has led to a general deadening of human emotions. The most delicate, intimate touch has been removed and all is now slaps and grunts, shoving things into place and guessing what will happen.
I guess the censors only liked some of my comments.

People stopped commenting so I stopped checking. I guess I missed the shear pin reply. It’s up for the world to see. Thanks for joining back in!

Thanks for your honesty. Male and Female Circumcision really makes no sense. That’s a decision adults should make themselves when they get their first tattoo. I’m glad this topic is finally out of the back alleys and we can talk about it like grown-ups.

what 18 year old would ever say “Today I’m a man, and it’s time to cut off part of my dick?”

Seems like stem cells should be able to fix this.

In Muslim countries and Jewish tradition, I believe, makes circumcision anpassage to manhood. At 14 or so your parents throw a party and a priest brings a pair of scissors. But the question is good for those who aren’t sucked into a religious dogma.

Donzo alerted me to the new demands on readership. I don’t know how it happened. Not something I required

I do have a friend who got circumsized at 14 because he wasn’t being hygenic enough
