A doctor diagnosed a foreskin problem. Suggests circumcision. In what way ios this a fetish ? The OP wanted some advise whether circ was necessary or not. The anti-circ brigade has a standard answer of "circ is never necessary" without even considering what the current state of the guy's foreskin really is. The OP did not state whetyer the pictures in his profile reflect the current state of his foreskin or not.
Apparently the snark was lost on you. My bad.
The reason why some accuse people on this forum, yourself included, isn't because you favor circumcision. It is because you will ALWAYS support a decision to circumcise, by the individual or the doctor, regardless of the circumstances. The simple truth is that there are alternative methods of treatment for pretty much every foreskin related malady in existence. The reason why doctors in the US are so quick to recommend circumcision to treat problems is because of two reasons: it works to treat what they are trying to treat, and the negative effects are still being debated.
If a doctor honestly doesn't realize there is any benefit to having a foreskin, why wouldn't he recommend cutting it off when a patient has a problem with it? To his point of view, he is fixing the problem and preventing any recurrence. Has there ever, EVER been a case where someone said their doctor recommended circumcision or they were considering circumcision and you encouraged them to think twice?
With regards to masturbation. I may be circumcised now, but I grew up uncut, and have read and gree with the anti-circ document by Dr Beauges who advocates proper masturbation technique to ensure the foreskin can remain easily retractable throughoiut puberty and adulthood.
The problem is that guys with tight foreksins adapt their masturbation method to NOT stretch their foreskin as that is uncomfortable, so their tight foreskin remains or gets worse. Stretching exercises might loosen up the foreksin, but if the masturbation method does not change to ensure full retraction at every stroke, then the skin tightness can return.
First off, guys who are uncircumcised do not have to fully stroke their foreskins up and down in order to achieve pleasure. It's been observed that even during sex, uncircumcised guys tend to make shorter, shallower thrusts then their circumcised brethren.
Second, Dr. Beague also advise full retraction of the foreskin as soon as possible, because he feels it is necessary to have the foreskin to develop in a healthy manner, even suggesting that it be pulled back during infancy and early childhood. We now know that retracting the foreskin too soon can actually lead to many of the problems he was trying to prevent. Not his fault, his report came out in 1990, before a lot of the relevant information was readily available.
Finally, your assertion is that there is a permanent behavioral change necessary in order to maintain the gains in mobility from stretching. How exactly do you explain those who have performed foreskin restoration? Do you think they all have to perform the restoration process forever, otherwise their foreskin will retract back and leave them where they started?
