That used to be the situation here in the UK. If you had a problem with foreskin - get it cut off! Over here though you are in a minority (as cuteguy said) if you are circumcised and I gather now that doctors are aware you don't have to have surgery because you can stretch the skin.
I used to wish I was cut but now I appreciate having a foreskin. Let's face it, it's as nature intended.
I really do hope more people in the States realize they have been conned all these years. So much money is made on new borns in the USA in the medical field/industry.
I also think you should enjoy your cock whether it's cut or not. I would love to know what it feels like to be cut and wonder if it's the same feeling as when I just pull back the skin, although I can't seem to keep it there, even my PA ring can't stop it!
Why was Prince William cut?
There is no simple explanation. The North American experience was imported from Germany in the late 19th C - Commercial medicine had been formulated in the German speaking states where an emerging middle class had money to spend on elective surgery. Tonsilectomies and circumcisions are fairly easy straightforward procedures and very lucrative.
German doctors took the trade to the USA. Of those fourth and fifth generation Americans that are cut 98% of their great grandfathers were not. In other words it is a recently acquired cultural practice. I do not include the tribal peoples of Africa or the Middle East who have practiced both male and female genital mutilation as a religious sacrifice and/or right of passage.
I believe certain breeds of dogs have their tails "docked" and I think there is analogy here. In short the Americans penchant for circumcising their newly born males is a status symbol akin to fashion. Psychologically there is something deeply suspicious about a mother and father who actually think about having their infant's genitalia fiddled with. Ethical surgeons from the best medical schhols and hospitals now rarely perform this operation.
I am cut, for no reason, but my brothers and other males in my extended family are not. I was circumcised by a mad army doctor without parental permission or for any medical reason at a military hospital. The doctor was dismissed the service when it came to light he had actually mutilated several babies by badly circumcising them. Fortunately I was lucky. true mine does look neater than my brothers when we were kids but be assured it performs no better. Birth traumas having long lasting psychological effects must also suggest circumcision does too. But it is a choice. But not a choice parents should make.
To all those that need to defend a comparatively recent cultural practice then you are free to do so but there is no medical ecidence to support it. Continue to cut your infants (the law says you can) but what will be the consequences when a son of 20 or so asks at a family gathering why you mutilated his penis. After all I am sure you are horrified that Somali and Sudanese parents infibulate their female children's vaginas and incise their labia - the equivalent of male circumcision but often lethal.
My family is from Germany...and I know for a fact that in the 40's when I father was born that they were circumcising boys. I believe they still circumcise quote a few today, but it's not needed!
Huh? What, you don't think skin can stretch? And even if the skin is tight it doesn't mean you need surgery..
