Answer 2

Circumcision is a bad idea to begin with. No matter what you tell whoever performs the circumcision, it won't be done necessarily as you would want. Circumcision has no standards, and is frequently sloppily done and/or botched. Circumcision is genital mutilation. It is neural and vascular damage to the penis and always damages a male's sexual sensitivity, function and ability. It's illegal to circumcise female minors in all civilized countries, and it should be equally illegal to circumcise male minors. Circumcision can and does kill. Circumcision can cause permanent sexual dysfunction. There are no medical benefits to circumcision. It doesn't prevent any diseases or infections, and the only thing it prevents is normal sexual function. Would you want your own genitals carved up, mutilated and permanently scarred? If not, then why would you perpetrate this atrocity on a helpless male infant? Most of the males in the world are not circumcised---about 80%, and that is normal. Normal people don't mutilate children's genitals. I know firsthand; circumcision was forced on me as an infant, with no regard for my rights or my wishes in the matter. And a tight circumcision can cause permanently painful and distorted erections. The foreskin is a normal and healthy part of the male genitals, like the female foreskin, the clitoral hood is. Circumcision is a fraud and a hoax. A foreskin is not a birth defect; it is a birthright. ERIC

Answer 3

I am probably one of the very few people who have experienced life with all three possible versions of penis a man can have, and as a man (intact, loosely circumcised, and tightly). These are my observations:

An intact penis is fun to have, and as long as there is access to soap and water, I see no drawbacks other than the fact that, once you begin to be sexually active, you will experience the natural limiations nature imposed on us in terms of ease of penetration. Yes, sex can be painful for men, too, if only when you go too fast. When uncircumcised, this can be experienced, and when using condoms, there is the annoying aspect of condom entrapment in a fold of foreskin, which can make you hate condoms. As for "looks and smells terrible", like fanatic circ advocates phrase it, come on, it's not that bad.

Then there's the loose circ, which I got aged 18, admittedly because I thought it was cool - like people who get themselves tattooed, kind of. Strangely, that actually did look unattractive, and my girlfriend was unnervingly quick to tell me so. It also has the very technical disadvantage of trapping pubic hair between glans and rolled back leftover skin, which tugs painfully on the hair, plus a loosely circed penis has the disadvantage of continuous rolling backwards and forwards of the remaining foreskin in varying stages of erection, which tends to feel uncomfortable and somehow collects textile material, which builds up under the leftover foreskin over a day and ironically aggravates the hygiene aspect.

So I went back to another doctor some time later and had him take off the rest. It would be easy for me now to proclaim "and that is best!", and it is actually perfectly fine, but I really want to say here that it is ultimately only the boy himself who can reliably pass good judgment on what's best for him. Anyway, what the tight circ is like: Everyone I've ever been with since loved the looks of it and was ready to engage in spontaneous sexual activities they weren't going to do before circ; I like the way it looks, too, and actual sex with it is hands down superior to the other two experiences. Much more direct, although I don't think the female partners notice a difference at that stage, with the exception of slightly increased staying power, which I have clocked for the sceptics out there. So there, it does make you last longer, but it's questionable whether longer also makes you better, right? As for disadvantages: When engaging in sports activities, it is advisable to choose undergarments wisely, because it can get irritating; and at times when I didn't have a partner, I was often thinking "wouldn't it be nice to have the attachment back for a little bit of fun".

I know I haven't made a decision here or you, but that'll be on you anyway. This is my story, feel free to draw conclusions as you see fit.

All the best.

Answer 4

Hmmm...well, I'd say not at all. I just read a myspace post froma mommy group where this woman had her baby circumcised in the hospital and he almost bled to death. Why put your child through a circ if it's not medically necessary? But if you're going to have it done anyway, you should ask your doctor, not people on here.
Maybe this will help you decide. It talks about circumcision styles -

Answer 5

Not once have I ever heard of a loose or tight circumcision. many of my friends have boys and I am currently expecting a boy as well. no one has been given an option of "style" its just done.
Sorry I could not help further.

Answer 6

A lose probaly. You can always have a re-circumcision to get a tight if you are not happy with the results.

CIRCUMCISION IS VERY BENEFICIAL, its cleaner and several research bodies have concluded that circumcised men have less risk of contracting STD's such as AIDS-HIV or herpes.

Uncircumcised penises are difficult to keep clean, and more prone to infections and penile cancer, studies have shown.
A circumcised penis is naturally clean and virtually free from urinary infection. You will not have to worry again with careful washing of your penis.

Is it NOT true that the AAP (American Academy of Paediatrics) does not recommend circumcision. They simply say they leave the decision to parents. But recently, and specially after the New Zealand study, the AAP has been discussing if it may be necessary to change their policy and recommend circumcision to all newborns as they used to do, so in the future we may see that the AAP advocates again circumcision.
Have a look at: http://www.baby-health.net/articles/381.html

About STD's:

As I said, several studies carried out by prestigious research bodies have concluded that uncircumcised penises are more prone to infections and contraction of STD's, including AIDS-HIV. Circumcised men have been proved to be up to seven times less likely to be infected than those who are uncircumcised. Have a look at this site: http://icuxbridge.icnetwork.co.uk/news/tm_objectid=14095142&method=full&siteid=53340&headline=-circumcision-protects-against-aids--name_page.html

As for women, studies also show that circumcision also protects female partners from AIDS-HIV and other STD's. Browse this article: http://www.hopkinsmedicine.org/Press_releases/2006/02_08_06.html

About sensitivity of a circumcised penis:

No medical or physiological study has proved that circumcision reduces sensitivity, opposed to common belief. It is completely FALSE that circumcision reduces penis sensitivity. The American Academy of Paediatrics (AAP) confirms this on their web site; have a look at: http://www.aap.org/pubed/zzzjzmemh4c.htm

Circumcision is an easy and nowadays *painless* procedure, which has many benefits, and virtually no risks.
Circumcision is NOT an amputation. Circumcision is NOT comparable at all to female circumcision, which is something completely different.

Circumcision rates are INCREASING nowadays, both in the United States and overseas. Many African and South American countries with little circumcision tradition are starting to promote the procedure to help to reduce the AIDS-HIV infection rates.

Finally, this site has a lot of useful and *unbiased* information. Make sure you have a good look: http://www.circlist.com

Answer 7

I can't speak to "loose" or "tight," but research actually now shows that circumcision is not a good thing. When I was considering the case, I had conflict since I am a Christian and always thought that circumcision was biblical. However, my personal research lead me to find that circumcision was no longer necessary under the new law (established by the coming of Jesus).
Scientific research indicates that circumcision is extremely painful for baby and may actually cause more harm than good. Paul M. Fleiss, MD, MPH, is assistant clinical professor of pediatrics at the University of Southern California Medical Center and he is quoted as saying, ""Routine circumcision of babies in the United States did not begin until the Cold War era. Circumcision is almost unheard of in Europe, Southern America, and non-Muslim Asia. In fact, only 10 to 15 percent of men throughout the world are circumcised."

"The natural penis requires no special care. A child's foreskin, like his eyelids, is self-cleansing. Forcibly retracting a baby's foreskin can lead to irritation and infection. The best way to care for a child's intact penis is to leave it alone."

I encourage you to research fully all of your options! Might I suggest reading this link:

Good luck...whatever your decision!

Answer 8

After I had my first son in June I got him circumcised. I am happy that i got that done but it looks like the doc took a little to much off. My family ask what happen to his penis lol. I told them what happen and the nurse even said it to that he did but it will be ok.

Answer 9

Every human being has a right to a body as complete and perfect as G*d or nature gave it to them. No one or group has a right to change that because of their opinions or superstitions.

This basic right applies equally to girls in Africa, Asia, and boys in the U.S.

Answer 10

Circumcision is genital mutilation. Why would you do that to your precious boy? There is no medical reason to circumcise. People play the cleanliness card, but that argument is total BS. Please do not cut your son in this way. So my answer to your question is neither loose nor tight. Whatever that means.
