It's up to the parents.

Note that I've heard circumsized guys are better in bed, since they're less sensitive in that area.
 
It's severely traumatizing for babies & destroys millions of nerve endings on the most sensitive part of a man's body. Moreover, it's irreversible. There is no reason adults should be able to inflict it on innocent babies but if adults want to do it to themselves they should be allowed.

If you drink enough alcohol you can pump away for over an hour barely feeling anything (unless you drink so much you can't function at all), that alone is not going to make you "good" though.

This is true,

that alone is not going to make you "good" though.

This is also true,

And you also suck at sex if you do it drunk. Do it without being drunk to optimize your abilities

And this is what you missed out, making your point irrelevant. :p
 
I compare it to giving the a slightly more painful flu shot that leaves a mark.
 
I don't see how it makes my other point irrelevant. :confused:

I'm making a comparison. Cutting off sensation (whether mechanically or via inebriation) is not the best way to be "better in bed". I'm sure the woman would rather have you staring into her eyes & get off a little sooner than staring off into space thinking about baseball for the sake of lasting a few extra thrusts.

Anyway, the type of stupid American girls who think only mutilated dicks look good aren't worth ******* anyway (even if you are).

I compare it to giving the a slightly more painful flu shot that leaves a mark.
But it's not protecting you against anything except maybe the need to wash as thoroughly. And unless the flu shot takes away half the sensation in your arm for life it's not really an adequate comparison.

That wasn't my point either. It's not that guys have issues to focus just because they got the tip cut off. Trust me, I know a number of people who are circumsized, and that's definately not the case...

I didn't say that.
 
Circumcision is one of the sillier things in our society. Procedure that's irreversible, is nearly always unnecessary and can be quite dangerous. Would be considered a horrible crime if done to an adult, but is perfectly ok to do to infants. /shakehead
 
Dangerous? Are we talking about a rural clinic in the Fourth World here?
 
Really?

How can anyone tell?

There is considerable evidence that newborns who are circumcised without analgesia experience pain and physiologic stress. Neonatal physiologic responses to circumcision pain include changes in heart rate, blood pressure, oxygen saturation, and cortisol levels. One report has noted that circumcised infants exhibit a stronger pain response to subsequent routine immunization than do uncircumcised infants.
 
Wow, Bill beat me to it. Yeah, you can measure stress & pain biochemically. I didn't even know about the long term higher sensitivity to pain (at least medically induced pain) thing.
 
If the boy/man getting circumcised makes the choice to be circumcised; I'm fine with it.
I'm against performing these activities against males (and females) who are too young for making that decison themselves.

FWIW it's the same for baptizing and other permanent activities -> if the persons are too young to oversee all consequences it should not happen.
I'm a very much anti age limits, but for these permanent activities I make an exception; one needs to be 18 (and willing) to have these permanent changes performed on them.

Circumcision takes away half the sensation?

Seeing that to some it is a religious practise and does not impose some form of disadvantage to the person (cept maybe a few days of pain).
And it is also somewhat more hygienic and whether or not it is by a lot or a little, it is still more hygienic. Some people want hygiene even if it by a little bit.
