I meant round, perky DD cup sizes, not round, perky dentists.
Nice riposte!
Understood ...
Other than the light reference to FotR, the thought was that a lot of the “faithful” seem to draw their own conclusions from the sacred texts — across many belief systems.
My doctor took one look and told my mom I couldn’t spare it.
Thank you for your post. In my family, some men are and some aren’t. We decided not to for our son, for the reasons you stated. I figure, if my son ever has a health problem that circumcision would solve, he will be old enough to get anesthesia and have some pressing need for the procedure. Not gonna snip a guy for no imminent reason.
The Pro-Smegma crowd will be sure to do anything they can to get a no circumcision law passed.
Well, whatever else you do, just "Don't Circ My Junk Man!"
Keep the little thing clean and it won’t cause any problems.
“Will the WaPo wander down to their local Mosque and inquire of the Imam as to his views on this subject?”
HA! They wouldn’t DARE...Somebody’s probably already made ‘em an offer they can’t refuse...;)
“I don’t have a link handy but I am pretty sure that medical studies show circumcision results in fewer health problems.”
This is true, but how many times do things go wrong in a hospital/doctor’s office vs. at a religious ceremony (and I’m not exactly a big fan of the medical industry) . There is an article on drudge right now where a poor little kid got his weenie wacked off, and I doubt it it will be known if it still “works” for many years.
If someone offers a group discount to circumcize every male in a village, be careful. It’s probably a trick.
"Hacking off a piece of everybody's willie...."
You DO have a way with words. :o)
It works for women too, only I wouldn't call it a "willie." What would YOU call it? :o):o)
I think it seems like a retarded concept to me too. Zillions of humans lived a LONG, long time on this earth without the benefit of willie-whacking. Hah, I like my phraseology!
A "shrinkage of the wedding tackle..."????
Hahaha, WONDERFUL phraseology.
Racquetball is a stupid game. Get him to change to squash, the game, not the vegetable.
I don’t have a link handy but I am pretty sure that medical studies show circumcision results in fewer health problems.
I don’t think it’s a big deal, and it is certainly not criminal. For those who do it for religious reasons it is important to them and it is also their business. Likewise the non religious, we act on what we believe to be true when it comes to our family health decisions (at least for now). Some will decide different than others and it is their business.
Yuck.
Sometimes, things could go terribly wrong:
Mine was doctor performed at the usual age, and some years on I had to have a minor correction done to release a couple adhesions. So yeah, I can confirm things sometimes go wrong - but I remain in the camp who believes the benefits far outweigh the risks.
When I said “Keep the little thing clean and it won’t cause any problems” I meant don’t nip it or snip it or clip it - just take good care of it and it’ll be fine. Your bris-gone-bad link serves as a painful confirmation of my position.
