why are some people against male circumcision?

Question

a lot of people call it mutilating a child, but isnt it done to the majority of the male population in this part of the world. and also hasnt it been proven to be cleaner and lets succeptable to infection. i am circumcised and i couldnt imagine having this annoying piece of skin in front of it that could effect my genital health.

Answer 1

do u want a fked up lookin penis?

Answer 2

No, circumcision hasn't really been proven to be significantly cleaner or lessen infection. The research seems conflicting, but most agree that it doesn't do all that much, if anything. While the majority of men in the US are circumcised, 80% or so of the rest of the world are uncircumcised. And 80% can't be unclean or entirely wrong.

You might not imagine having a foreskin, but how could one truly imagine what they don't remember having? I've never had any problems with mine; no infection, no smegma, and no smell. I keep it clean - it's easier to clean than your teeth or even your hands sometimes (cuz hands can come in contact with some really nasty stuff).

Some people are against it because it alters a child's body, and essentially takes away that choice away from the child. If people systematically took out every newborn's tonsils, because it's healthier and removes possiblity of tonsilitis, would people do it? No, probably not, how's circumcision any different? If you want it and like it, good for you. But that doesn't mean your child or someone else might, and that's reason enough.

Answer 3

Obviously you won't think having a foreskin is a good thing because you never had one. Most people who are not circumcised feel exactly the same as you. They can't imagine not having a foreskin. This sort of argument is like claiming that gay people don't exist because you don't feel the same way they do. Another similar argument is telling someone that their religion is invalid because its different than yours.

People are against male circumcision because it's traumatic and painful to the infant and that babies are not given a choice. If you were an adult and hat a choice, odds are you'd say no. That's why the vast majority of men in most European and Asian countries are not circumcised (not including South Korea and Muslim countries). Circumcision is not the norm in those places, so most men can't "imagine not having this piece of skin." All of the arguments about affecting genital health are completely unsubstantiated. They continue to be told by people to justify what they are doing.

Answer 4

Why are u worring, if are doilg sex regularly, their should be some science behind religious thought. because in a hot area the thing with skinwill give up some ther infection

Answer 5

Because as infants, they do not have a choice to decided whet er they want to get circumcised or not... It's inhumane to subject a infant through a lot of pain, when they don't want to!

Answer 6

A ccording to my (intact) husband, it is no trouble to keep clean. Circumcision dulls the sensitivity of the glans. So sex is better for the uncircumcised.

Answer 7

it's aginst nature and it helps to make a man come like 3x faster than when he looses that foreskin. lol women kind of loose the longness of intercourse because of this.
top religion made this idea....

Answer 8

Your ability to enjoy sex MORE was taken away from you without your consent.

if i was a man, i would be mad as hell......

Answer 9

just religious prejudice
