Let me ask a question.

If you’re an adult male, and the blood rushes as it will when becoming turgid,and you have no more foreskin to stretch out....how do you know the doctor didn’t cut too much off ?

[Joe 6-pack]

San Fancisco logic...it's a Constitutional right to scramble an unborn male's within the womb, but once he pops out you can't so much as 'snip the tip.'

These people are truly insane.

[BunnySlippers]

Smart people will go to a doctor outside of San Francisco.

[BunnySlippers]

Do you even know what female circumcision entails!

I can assure you that they are nowhere near alike. Male castration would be the closest thing to female circumcision.

[Vince Ferrer]

It will just force Jews to go to back alley Rabbis.

[Iron Munro]

Liberals used to howl about getting government out of our bedrooms.

Now the problem is government in our shorts and the liberals are all for it.

If you study circumcision you will find it is the most barbaric act you can do to a Man.

If you study the etymology of the word "hysteria" you will find it is the most fitting description you can apply to your assertion.

[Will we know the moment]

Isn’t circumcision basically unnecessary surgery?

You're right, it's no different than an abortion, just surgery to remove unwanted tissue.

[RichInOC]

Hey! Nobody asked the patient if he wanted it.

Yep. We go way back to find definitions without much linguistic activism. Etymologies are better. To avoid contemporary political correctness, let's try a definition from 1913.

From The Collaborative International Dictionary of English v.0.48 :

 Hysteria \Hys*te"ri*a\, n. [NL.: cf. F. hyst['e]rie. See
 Hysteric.] (Med.)
 A nervous affection, occurring almost exclusively in women,
 in which the emotional and reflex excitability is
 exaggerated, and the will power correspondingly diminished,
 so that the patient loses control over the emotions, becomes
 the victim of imaginary sensations, and often falls into
 paroxism or fits.
 [1913 Webster]
 
 Note: The chief symptoms are convulsive, tossing movements of
 the limbs and head, uncontrollable crying and laughing,
 and a choking sensation as if a ball were lodged in the
 throat. The affection presents the most varied
 symptoms, often simulating those of the gravest
 diseases, but generally curable by mental treatment
 alone. Hysteric

I am shocked that you examined my grandfather private parts as part of your study....If you tried it with my father he would have shot you.

[onedoug]

Do it anyway.

[gogogodzilla]

Just remember, boys and girls... Jesus was circumcised.

I wonder what he’ll think of you when the time comes.

“Oh, Jesus... I know you got it done, but I know better! So I don’t have to do what you did! HAHAHA!!!”

[Cincinna]

Jesus Christ himself, and his disciples were all circumcised.

Saint Paul, in his desire to convert the Gentiles realized he wasn’t going to get many adult male converts if circumcision were required.

Jews do it as part of the Covenant between God and Abraham. Many Evangelicals for the same reason.

Definite health benefits have been medically proven over time. One of them dramatically lower rates of cervical cancer among women married to men who are circumcised.

[Seeing More Clearly Now]

Make no mistake. It’s probably the mixed up, self-hating Jewish men who have been lured into homosexual behavior who suggested this. There’s no logic in any other theory.
