[Xman31]

Why do adults cut there kids? I mean what are like the Pros and Cons.
Just a random question. :P

Well originaly in 18th or 19th cenctury it was done because people belived it would make masturbating uncomfortable, and it kind of just went on, like "Mine is like that, his should be the same" Thats the reason its usually done in America. But it's also done in some religions symbolising that you are a man not a boy anymore. And also sometimes its done because of medical reasons, like when its too thight.

I really don't understand why anyone would circumcise other than medical and religious reasons. I believe that more and more parents in the USA are not getting their sons circumcised as much now as was done before.

We get circumcised because of religion believe

Originally it was to prevent masturbation because they knew it was less pleasurable in the sexphobic days of the late 19th and early 20th century. It kept going because "his should look like mine right?" (Logic worthy of the most uptight mental home in the country). It's really only done in the rest of the world because of religious and medical reasons.

Usually parents are misinformed, or they go with "Well his dad's circumcised so we should probably get him circumcised"

Pros: not having extra skin to get in the way/take care of,
Cons: not being able to jerk off as easily.
Obviously there are other moral/ethical/religious reasons which I am not influenced by

I asked my dad once because me and my brothers are all cut. he said it was what he thought was the right thing to do at the time. he didnt know then what he knows now and said he would have left us uncut if he did.

They cut their son penis because the penis will be no more sensitive so it will be long lasting sex and you would not always mastubate because your penis your will not easily aroused.beside that,you penis smell will be so nice.
If my statement wrong i am sorry

Societal norms / perceived medical "benefits" - The US and South Korea. Other western nations such as Canada, Australia, the UK and New Zealand all had a history of high rates of circumcision but has greatly dwindled in modern times.
Cultural/Customs - African cultures, Pacific cultures, the Philippines
Religous - In Abrahamic religions such as Judaism and Islam, though it is not practised in Christianity
