Actually, circumcision caught on in America after large numbers of soldiers required field circumcisions during World War One. Trench warfare caused a great deal of infections due to poor hygienic conditions in the trenches and long recovery periods and even some deaths. Ouch! Constant moisture made infections almost inevitable. As a matter of national security the War Department encouraged circumcision to avoid large numbers of soldiers off the front lines due to recovery from circumcisions after incurable infections obtained while deployed on the front lines in future wars. Doctors came home from the war and routinely performed circumcisions after 1920 or so. All men in my family born before 1918 were not circumcised; All men born after 1920 or so are. I learned this on the history channel and from several books on World War I.

Also circumcised men are not longer (wink, wink) but actually seem to "perform" longer than uncircumcised men much to women's "satisfaction". Less wham, bam thank you mam if you know what I mean. (LOL). Its all in the "continued" motion! At least that is what I've been told. (LOL) You don't ever want to hear the words, "Put down the cigarette and stop talking! Your not done yet!" Not that there is anything wrong with that! (Wink, wink) I can be reached at 1 888 867-5309. (LOL) A gentlemen always finishes what he starts!

Well, I shudder to think what they'll recommend for women in combat, then. Sew everything shut like Muslims do, I guess?
