re need info on circumcision medical cons and pros aezpete deja vu aiss uiuc edu writes can t imagine what it s like to have a penis much less a foreskin i guess if american medicine did an artistic job of circumcising every male then the visual result would be somewhat more natural in appearance the penile cancer thing has been completely debunked she must be going to school on a south pacific island tell her to check the journal or urology for circumcision articles i remember at least on an old jewish man cut at birth who developed penile cancer i mean if the cancer risk was that great the europe who have been circumcising like crazy too teaching a boy how to keep his cockhead clean is the issue a little proper hygiene goes a long way americans are just too hung up on the penis to consider cleaning it that s just way too much like mastubation so you have surgical intervention that is basically unnecessary peter schlumpf university of illinois at urbana champaign first off use some decent terms if ya don t mind this is sci med not alt sex secondly how absolutely bogus to assume that american s are just too hung up on the penis blah blah i think most american s don t care about anything so comlicated as that they just think it looks nicer ask a few of them and see what response you get others still opt for circumcision due to religious traditions and beliefs some think it is easier to clean still others do it because daddy was dont be so naive as to think american s are afraid of sexuality my son is not circumcised and i can vouch for the argument that it is more difficult to keep clean than a circumcised kids not so much that the foreskin is difficult to pull back it isn t but because my son doesn t want to wait long enough for a thorough check for smega or misplaced feces so many times it just gets a once over dab it worries me that he might get an infection due to his lack of cooperation i am sure however that he will be able to handle cleaning under the foreskin himself once he is old enough until there is always the decision at each diaper change is this the time to clean or can we wait till next time
