Would love to hear women's opinions on this one.

I think it is very wrong to do. There is no medical necessity for it.
The inside of the foreskin and the tip of the penis that it covers are very sensitive for men and where they get the most pleasure. This means that having a foreskin increases more pleasure for longer in a man's life because there is more sensitive tissue area and there is a natural fold covering of it too.
The only downside is a greater risk of infections but that risk can be made lower by good washing habits just like it is for us.

Don't understand why you want to hear from women on this one.
Supposedly, circumcision (outside of religion) is a health factor helping adult males to more easily manage matters of hygiene.
Hubby is not circumcised, our son is, because hubby believed it was the right thing to do and I had to take his word for it. It was done at birth, I hated doing it but I also hated putting my baby through other sugeries that were for his own good and had to be done. From the standpoint of a parent, it all feels barbaric.
Son has never known anything else to compare with, neither has hubby, so who knows what the right thing to do was at the time.
I think this question would be better aimed at the males who have had it done or not done and get their input.

Yea, I believe so. I love how the first two answerers were male.
But yea, I do think it's barbaric. I wouldn't want anyone mutilating me down there so I think it's pretty pointless and wrong to mutilate a male in that fashion.

I think it is because it is done without the boy's consent or knowledge. That's why I think it is better to wait until he's old enough to decide for himself. I don't believe in making permanent alterations to someone else's body unless there is a compelling medical reason for it.

Yes I do. I fought with my husband on these one when we had our 1st son.I didn't want it done . I did research on it and I didn't like what I seen . He wanted it done because the baby would look like him. He said it was more hygiene. I said he was wrong. We went on and did it. Now we Both regret it. Our 1st son had a lot of problems and had to get more surgeries to fix it. He is doing good now but it wasn't worth it.
With our 2st son we decide not to. We our happy with not doing it on our 2st son. If we could go back we would not have done it to our 1st.

Not according to the World Health Organisation in Geneva.
