Me and my buddies got to talking about circumcision the other day (it actually linked onto a conversation about piercing, one of my pals wants a prince albert, ouch!) and I didn't know it had health benefits and such. I'm thinking about getting it done now, but was wondering if you guys had any information about it that I might wanna know? or any warnings/stories?

cant see the point meself
there's a pun in that. The health thing goes further than just cleanliness though
Hmmmmm...I've never been with an uncircumcised man.
I wonder how different it would be.

i'm not, as its pretty rare in the uk and most of europe ( except, of course, for health reasons), but i've always thought there would be a loss of sensation if i were
- as for the health points, other than just general cleanliness, there is recent research that shows men who are circumcised are less like to contract hiv through unprotected sex
as it is easier for the virus to pass through the membrane under/joined to the foreskin, which is removed during circumcision, than it is to pass through normal skin, glans etc

- however, obviously, unprotected sex is still pretty risky & i wouldn't use that as a reason to go under the knife
- ouch

Oh, I didn't mean that foreskin itself could cause anything, just that having it removed can reduce the chance of getting certain things. I read it on wikipedia :1orglaugh I wanted to see how they did it before I considered getting it done!
All sounds too painful for me!

A circumcision should only be done for medical reasons once you are grown up.
And I mean medical as in, you are having problems with it, not because you just think it seems healthier.
I had it done when I was in my young teens, it needed to be done because it was too tight or something, and there was a high risk of infection.
It was extremely painful. And it took YEARS to stop feeling sore and over sensitive.
God knows how painful it would be to a fully grown man.

Here in the US, circumcision is a common practice at birth. I think it has to do with health reasons. I was circumcised as a baby and circumcised penises seem more normal to me because of that, and also because in porn most penises are circumcised. At least in the US, a lot of girls have never seen an uncircumcised penis before and are turned off by it. I've heard plenty of horror stories from girls about this. There have been a few guys I've known who were born overseas who were uncircumcised. They found their sex lives difficult in the US since girls didn't like how their penises looked different. Personally, I don't think it's that much of a deal, though if I had a choice, I would rather see a sex scene with a circumcised penis because it's what I'm used to.

it's quite an interesting subject
imo if it didn't have a religious background i think circumcision of boys at birth, for reasons other than health, would probably, in the 21st century, now be illegal
as is female circumcision - which, i know, is a far more severe procedure and clearly harms the women and inhibits their possibility of achieving sexual pleasure etc
in much of europe it is now illegal to dock a dog's tail as a pup, but you can still remove, without their consent, a part of a human male baby's genitalia
just something to think about ....

what the fuck you lookin at?
Yep same here
Male circumcision also inhibits the ability of men and their female partners from achieving sexual pleasure and level of intimacy. I prefer porn with uncircumcised men because they enjoy the sex more, the cum harder and when they've having sex it doesn't look like a jack hammer attacking the road. A lot of the circumcised porn actors dribble when they cum.
Actors who use viagra are less sensitive too and hammer away and have bright red faces and chests and take longer to cum. I was reading that the old school porn actors had their jobs more because they could perform as needed and weren't camera shy whereas now the pretty boys who weren't able to perform now can use viagra to be up for it.
