Son circumcision

[Tsall]

For circumcised boys:
Would you circumcise your son?
Why or why not?

For uncircumcised boys:
Would you circumcise your son?
Why or why not?

[Tsall]

For circumcised boys:
Would you circumcise your son? No
Why or why not? I was uncut until I was 12, and I quite liked my foreskin.

[mick01]

For circumcised boys:
Would you circumcise your son? no
Why or why not? I would have said yes before I joined vt. But I've learned from others on here that there is really no justifiable reason to do it. Plus, it's his body so he can make the decision himself at some point.

[jamie_n5]

For uncircumcised boys:
Would you circumcise your son? No
Why or why not? I don't believe in circumcision. If my son wanted to be circumcised that would be his decision.

[HeyCameron]

I am uncut.

No, I would not circumcise my son.

Same as above. I don't believe in removing a part of a person's genitalia at birth. If they want to get circumcised later in life, that's their choice.

[BaileyWill]

I am cut

I wouldn’t have my son done.

I wish I had the choice to be cut or uncut. Sure, my dick works fine, but I would like to have my son have the opportunity to decide for himself. It’s his body.

[InternetTeen]

I'm Uncut and wouldn't have my son circumcised. He should have the choice and in the future if he wants to be cut that will be his choice.

[rwd83182]

For circumcised boys:

Would you circumcise your son? No

Why or why not? I think its fair for him to make his own choice about that since once you do it you can't reverse it.

[Cycler21]

For circumcised boys:
Would you circumcise your son?
Why or why not?

For uncircumcised boys:
Would you circumcise your son? No
Why or why not? I see no reason to. There are no benefits.

[kro814]

I would circumcise my son. We are all cut around here.

[IITSRII]

For uncircumcised boys:
Would you circumcise your son? No
Why or why not? Religious reasons, personally think the health benefits are bs, greater risks than benefits and if the benefit was aesthetic reasons then just retract at all times. Also once its gone you can never get it back

[Coping]

For uncircumcised boys:
Would you circumcise your son?
Why or why not?

I'm intact and I'd leave any son of mine the same way. If he wanted to be circumcised when he is old enough to make that decision that's up to him. His body, his choice. Most UK guys are uncut, it was rare to see a circumcised penis in the school showers.

[nickerasic]

I am uncut but i think would circumcise him because it is cleaner and looks better

[Oscar-V3.0]

For circumcised boys:
Would you circumcise your son?
Why or why not?

I'm not sure yet but I probably will, it feels better

[Hermes]

I'm uncut and I like it that way. I would not circumcise a son, not because I think there is anything wrong with being cut, but because it is his body and, if left uncut, he can always get cut later if that is what he wants whereas if he gets cut when he is too young to understand and later wishes he was not cut, it cannot be completely undone. He should get to make the decision about his own body.

[Turbofan explosion]

For circumcised boys:
Would you circumcise your son? Hell nonono
Why or why not? Because it is his body and his choice. I am cut and I don't like it. It causes loss of a lot of sensitivity, glans irritation, and other things. The only con is hygiene, which isn't a problem if you wash everyday (which cut guys should be doing too already).

[MasonBA]

For uncircumcised boys:
Would you circumcise your son? no
Why or why not? no reason to

[teenboyNathan]

I'm cut but would let my son decide whether or not to get circumcised

[Chris2]

I am uncut.

No, I would not circumcise my son.

Same as above. I don't believe in removing a part of a person's genitalia at birth. If they want to get circumcised later in life, that's their choice.

Exactly right. I like my fore-skin the way it is.

[Adamant]

Probably not.
I am cut but not for religion or family tradition.
I was old enough to know it was very different (and feel a bit embarrassed as most uk boys aren't) but not old enough to feel cheated that it was gone.
It works fine as it is so no big deal to me one way or another.
If its not necessary don't do it.

[Gay Paul]

In my opinion, doing this surgery without any medical or cultural justification is pure barbarism

[ChrisA1998]

For circumcised boys:
Would you circumcise your son?
Why or why not?

I guess I will wait his old enough to talk to him about it and explain him why I think it's better, but I wont force him

[tomhero]

For uncircumcised boys:
Would you circumcise your son? Maybe
Why or why not? If it’s medically needed, I would do it right away. If not, I will talk with him when he is in puberty and show him both sides, so he can decide himself.

[hot lazer]

For uncircumcised boys:
Would you circumcise your son? Fucking no
Why or why not? I am uncut and I like it this way. I think my future son should be allowed to decide.

[justa16yearoldaussie]

For uncircumcised boys:
Would you circumcise your son? no, I'd have a conversation about it when they were old enough to make conscious decisions on whether or not they wanted it done.
Why or why not? said it above.

[Maxbreak]

I'm uncut. I would not force anything like that if I had a son. It would be their choice or for medical reasons

[Diable rouge]

Without real medical reason this is pure barbarism.

[bonbon]

No. There is no reason to do that.

[jimbojones]

I’m cut. I’d never do it.

[INACTIVEchaosphere]

For uncircumcised boys:
Would you circumcise your son? Not at birth.
Why or why not? Because I would want him to have the choice later, but I think with proper care it's usually unnecessary. In certain medical situations it's obviously the only answer but that would be the only reason I would see it as imperative.

[Deleted00]

For circumcised boys:

Why or why not?

For uncircumcised boys:
Would you circumcise your son?
Why or why not?

I am uncircumcised and I would NOT circumcise him.He can choose for himself when he gets older

[ArthurHannenburg]

For uncircumcised boys:
Would you circumcise your son? Not unless he needed it
Why or why not? Just because it isn't really a thing over here but I wouldn't be opposed to it like especially if my wife wanted it

[Everard1994]

For circumcised boys:
Would you circumcise your son?
Why or why not?

For uncircumcised boys:
Would you circumcise your son?
Why or why not?
Uncircumcised
Yes I would have them circumcised.
Health reasons and I had a tightness problem untell I went to a doc not a comfortable thing so I would like him to avoid it.

[Jeff1857]

For circumcised boys:
Would you circumcise your son? Yes
Why or why not? I had 2 friends have to get circumcised for medical reasons both said they wished it had been done when they were born and noticed no real difference after but it sucked having it done.
Also I like being circumcised and everyone around here is.
I know others on here will disagree with this decision but being honest here.

[JQL---]

For uncircumcised boys:
Would you circumcise your son? Maybe (what science will say then may not say what it says now.)

[THE_D3_4D_3Y_35]

For uncircumcised boys:
Would you circumcise your son? No way.
Why or why not? Unnecessary and unhelpful.

[Hhfjjfhd6]

I’m cut, and I would circumcise my son. I’d do this because, I feel like my son would be able to relate more to me. My son and I’d be able to talk about things more easily knowing that we are the same. Plus if her ever had any questions, I’d be able to answer him because I

[Tyler111]

For circumcised boys:
Would you circumcise your son? No
Why or why not? I don't think its right for me to make that decision for him. As someone who was cut when I was very little, I wish I had the choice myself.

[Falcons_11]

For uncircumcised boys:
Would you circumcise your son? No.
Why or why not? It's an unnecessary procedure and has no benefits, as I see it, unless it's done for medical or religious reasons.

[kthonka19]

For circumcised boys:
Would you circumcise your son? Yes
Why or why not? Religious Reasons

[HFrint]

For circumcised boys:
Would you circumcise your son?no
Why or why not?if he wants it done later he can have it done then..

For uncircumcised boys:
Would you circumcise your son?
Why or why not?

I know a boy who had his done at eleven... he was happy after.

[thatboi]

I'm uncut.

I wouldn't circumcise my son because in Poland it's not very common and the most important it would be his body and he should decide by himself when he gets older.

[sidric8]

Yes. Cut and I think the advantages are stronger this way than uncut. Plus if you're going to do it, sooner is better. I'd give him that gift.

[JonnyH]

For circumcised boys:
Would you circumcise your son? Yes
Why or why not? It is a part of my culture

Why or why not? I would have said yes before I joined vt. But I've learned from others on here that there is really no justifiable reason to do it. Plus, it's his body so he can make the decision himself at some point.

I would have to say the same........

[Djdj112]

For circumcised boys:
Would you circumcise your son? Yes
Why or why not? It’s more common in the US, plus it would avoid later problems that could happen with the foreskin (it not pulling back etc.) All my family is, most of my friends are, and it’s kind of natural that I would just continue that.

[David_rupp]

I am circumcised:
I probably would have my son circumcised. I think that it can be more healthful in the long run and like why not. Like and i'll be honest, I wish I wasn't cut sometimes. But i am not looking to deep into it at this moment in time.

[Fixfolly]

I’m uncut and don’t quite know whether I’d get my son cut or not.

I think it would be easier for him to wash down there or take a piss if he was circumcised. You know, long foreskins run in the family. But on the other hand- I don’t want to make a decision for him, it’s kind of irreversible.

[SouthernDude]

I am cut

I would cut my son only because of my religion

Otherwise I would not

[Stanley]

For uncircumcised boys:
Would you circumcise your son? absolutely not
Why or why not? I think its tantamount to mgm

[PCwrestles]

I am cut, and i would circumcise my boys. It's cleaner, looks better, and avoids them having to choose later in life.

[ItIsKai]

I am cut, and i would circumcise my boys. It's cleaner, looks better, and avoids them having to choose later in life.

It also takes away their ability TO choose later on. what if later they wished they never wanted to be cut?

[PCwrestles]

It also takes away their ability TO choose later on. what if later they wished they never wanted to be cut?

I'm the dad, I'll make that decision. LOL

[ItIsKai]

I'm the dad, I'll make that decision. LOL

Good point i guess haha

[Jthompson]

I’m circumcised. I wouldn’t have my sons circumcised cause I want their penis to be more natural

[thatrandomguy01]

I was born in the southern central part of the US and I was circumcised as a baby. My dad and my younger brother are also circumcised. The handful of other boys that I've seen naked they were also circumcised. It's my understanding that most boys born around here are circumcised. You almost have to request NOT to be circumcised because its so common around here. I like being circumcised. It is cleaner, easier to maintain, don't have to retract foreskin to pee or have sex and don't have to deal with having tight foreskin issues, and stuff like that. If I have sons, I would have them circumcised as babies. There are fewer risks and recovery is easier and faster when done as a baby then as a teen or adult.

[Don Giovanni]

For circumcised boys:
Would you circumcise your son? Yes
Why or why not? I think it is more esthetic

[Oscar-V3.0]

I know a boy who had his done at eleven... he was happy after.

I did it at 11 too, I'm happy with it too
But uncut was fine as well lol

[Zika]

I did it at 11 too, I'm happy with it too
But uncut was fine as well lol

why were you circumcised at 11?
most boys, if they're going to be circumcised, which I think is fine, have it done at birth, unless there's some problem later in life.

[abcdeqwe]

I’m cut
I wouldn’t get my son cut cuz it’s not my choice, simple as that

[antandlope]

For uncircumcised boys:
Would you circumcise your son? Nope
Why or why not? Their choice. Why get rid of something that’s not harming their health

[flogrown2001]

Personally, I'm not cut so I have no idea what it's like. Sometimes I wish I was cut just so my dick didn't look weird (I know, sounds kinda strange to say!) but I would really have to weigh the pros and cons of it before I made a decision. I think currently, I would not have my son cut because having him cut would make it harder for him to jack off, haha! (pretty sure he'd thank me later) :D

[Zika]

:D

what gives you that idea?

[flogrown2001]

what gives you that idea?

well considering I jack off on a daily basis I know how important the foreskin is in jacking off! honestly it makes your orgasm so much better because you have the foreskin to stimulate all the sensitive nerves in the head of your penis. maybe it's just me but I can't think of any way to get as good of an orgasm if you were circumcised!

I"m not gonna get into a debate about whether masturbating with or without a foreskin is better, but consider this possibility: without a foreskin, you get to stimulate all the sensitive nerves in the head of the penis directly, rather than through the foreskin, which provides no erotic feelings itself.

You make a good argument! However, at the end of the day I don't want to do something to my son that's irreversible or that will make him upset that I did it 20 years down the road. It's his choice and I respect that!

[grant2]

For circumcised boys:
Would you circumcise your son? Probably
Why or why not? Most people that live around me are circumcised. Kids in my school have gotten Meade fun of for being uncircumcised and I don’t want my kid to deal with it.

I was circumcised as a teen so I’ve experienced both. The foreskin provides an extreme amount of stimulation and in itself stimulates the nerves you’re talking about, by pulling the skin back you also expose the areas you mention.
Once you’re cut the sensitivity begins to reduce over time. Without a doubt masterbating uncut feels better than cut. ( I had no choice but to be circumcised so I’m fine with it and wanking is still pleasurable but certainly different)

You're talking about one experience; that's not a valid basis for drawing a conclusion.
In addition, there's a big difference between being circumcised as a baby and having it done as a teen.
I'm unaware of any legit evidence that once you're cut, the sensitivity reduces over time. In fact, you're the first one I've heard that from. It may have to do with you being cut after your foreskin has fully developed.

I don't care if someone is cut or not, but people generally support whatever they are, for mostly weak reasons.

And girls should have NO say in male circumcision what. so. ever.

That makes sense, though aside from third hand stories, I've rarely heard of someone being upset about it. I've heard of a couple "weird lawsuit" stories where guys have sued their parents, but in those cases, they had a strained relationship to being with.

You probably live somewhere (US maybe?) where being circumcised is the norm and to be anything else is seen as unclean , unhygienic , ugly etc etc I know a few people who absolutely hate being circumcised. I know one guy who hates his father for allowing it to be done to him.
It’s an outdated, unnecessary barbaric procedure when done on an infant. Their body, their choice. Nobody has the right to inflict a body modification purely for aesthetic reasons on a baby. This bollocks about they won’t remember it makes my blood boil. Who in their right mind would want to inflict even a second of pain or discomfort in their innocent newborn?

Yes I’m talking about one experience MY OWN.
There’s plenty of evidence to show it reduces sensitivity. Ask an uncut guy how sensitive his glans is when it’s exposed. If it rubs against anything!! When circumcised the glans kertanises. Depending on where the sat is some guys lose inner skin too. If you’ve been cut all your life you won’t have any clue of the sensitivity you lose.

[Vic_Fire]

For uncircumcised boys:
Would you circumcise your son? no
Why or why not? there is only only 2 reasons for doing it, religious and medical, all others are just stupid. there is no tradition in our orthodox christanity to make circumsion, and i hope there would be ok with his anatomy.

I'm not going to have a conversation with someone who starts out referring to it as barbaric. That tells me all I need to know about their open-mindedness. And I wouldn't want to be responsible for making your blood boil. Another sign any attempt on my part to have an intelligent conversation about this would be a waste.

I will say this: Yes, I'm originally from the USA, but I've never heard that being uncircumcised is "unclean , unhygienic , ugly." Even in the boys' locker room, where no one holds back on comments, I've not heard that.

I think most American girls prefer cut because that's what they're used to seeing, like most European girls prefer uncut bec that's what they're used to.

I'll admit, it's not the most common conversation amongst my friends, but I don't know of anyone who hates either being cut or hates being uncut. It is what it is.

Why does this guy hate his father and not his mother for him being cut?

There is no point in me replying as to why he hates his parents for what they did when you say you don’t want a conversation because you feel my views on barbarism aren’t worthy.
I’m sorry you feel an innocent child being strapped down, sometimes only hours old. Then having his foreskin forcibly retracted whilst still adhered to the glans then a cold piece of metal forced behind the foreskin before being clamped and ultimately cut away. Often and usually without anaesthetic, but if you’re happy with that .. hey it’s your child .. ( videos available on line ).
If you’ve never heard people discussing uncut as described above feel free to trawl VT I’m sure you’ll find many many many examples ..
ultimately I’d personally prefer to leave any child of mine to live with the body they are born with , without the need to change it for absolutely no reason .. if later they want to .. I’ll support them whole hearted .. hey I’ll even pay for it.

Yes, I don't think it's worth my time to discuss the issue with someone who starts off with the view that it's barbarism and yes, I'm familiar with what circumcision involves and yes, I'm fine with it being done.

Unlike you, I'm open-minded enough to also accept that some people are not fine with it being performed. And that's ok.

btw: no baby is 'strapped down' for a circumcision and the foreskin is NOT adhered to the glans; it moves freely, but your fictitious description of it I'm sure makes some people uncomfortable...obviously the intention of your false facts.

[Spaceforce1]

Not sure that theres anything wrong with being circumcised, and to the guy who said it was barbaric.. you crack me up haha

I think you need to educate yourself before responding. Google circumstraint. It’s a plastic body shaped base with straps for the arms and legs https://www.google.co.uk/search?q=circumstraint&client=safari&hl=en-gb&prmd=ismvn&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwjmva7qnebiAhUWSRUIHSRlBkgQ_AUoAXoECAwQAQ&biw=375&bih=635#imgrc=76kYD9CipcqDzM and yes the foreskin is adhered to the glans on an infant and does not move freely. Why do you think some cut guys get skin bridges?
This is taken from Seattle Children’s Hospital website
What You Should Know About the Foreskin:
At birth, the foreskin is attached to the head of the penis (glans). It is attached by a layer of cells.
Over time, the foreskin will separate from the head of the penis. This is a natural process and occurs over 5 to 10 years. It slowly loosens up (retracts) a little at a time.
Normal erections during childhood cause most of the change by stretching the foreskin.
If your boy has a normal urine stream, any foreskin movement is normal.
There should be no rush to achieve full retraction. This always occurs on its own by puberty.
Here is some care advice that should help.

[Petyr]

Circumcised
Yes
Cause it looks better and cleaner and everyone makes fun of the uncircumcised guys at my school, and girls avoid them so i wouldnt want my son to experience that growing up

[Janas]

For uncircumcised boys:
Would you circumcise your son? I wouldn't
Why or why not? I wouldn't because the head of the penis just keeps sencitive and it gives more pleasure and it is just more aesthetic.:)

[arca]

For circumcised boys:
Would you circumcise your son? NEVER.
Why or why not? It's a mutilation of the genitals. It destroys nerves, looks, sensitivity, and is completely pointless. If someone WANTS to get cut and willingly decides to then so be it, but I know I didn't ask to be cut.

[Will..]

I don't really see the point.

[MisterMister2000]

For circumcised boys:
Would you circumcise your son?
Why or why not?

For uncircumcised boys:
Would you circumcise your son?
Why or why not?

Yes, I would.

Why? Because most of the boys here are that way and I wouldn't want him to feel odd or out of place because of that; whether he ends gay or straight. Also, my religion prefers it. I think it looks better and I've heard cleanliness can be a chore. I've heard the arguments for an against it, and how you're making a choice for someone that can't, but that's a lame excuse. There's alot of things that were done for where I would have liked to have had a say but didn't or couldn't.

[Robert100]

For circumcised boys:
Would you circumcise your sons? I would circumcise one and not circumcise the other
Why? Because when I was at a water park a couple of years ago before I got circumcised due to phimosis I saw a father who had 1 of his kids circumcised and the other not. I would do this to see what it would be like out of curiosity like an experiment to see the pros and cons of growing up.

[Jericho14]

I might just give my son a choice especially if i'm raising him outside my home country.

[sidric8]

Because when I was at a water park a couple of years ago I saw a father who had 1 of his kids circumcised and the other not.
You talked to the kids? Just saw their penises somehow? I don’t have a brother and I’m glad I’m cut, but yeah that would be weird.

[rhett13]

If I have a boy he be like me uncut

[Datboi123]

I would have him uncut because it is more natural and it's not really a religios thing to me, it's his choice not mine

[Robert100]

You talked to the kids? Just saw their penises somehow? I don’t have a brother and I’m glad I’m cut, but yeah that would be weird.

I didn't talk to them no but saw their penises in full view no pubes whatsoever

[QUOTE=Tsall;3733778]For circumcised boys:

[heresjohnny]

Intact.

His body, his choice.

There is absolute zero medical reason to do it at birth. Every "yes" reason has been proven false.
