Can my massive run-on sentence of doom and I join you? I brought some semi-colons. And I think there are still some wings left.

Oh all right - I resent my parents for having me circumsized without my consent. It was inhumane, I want my Willy back!

Free Willy!

My husband frequently says that I keep his penis in my purse. I'm not precisely sure what that means, although I'm pretty sure I have an idea.

Some surgery is more painful than others. Nutering is relatively painless for a male cat while spaying is major surgery - but well worth it for several reasons.

I may be wrong because you say I'm wrong, but, according to several medical studies I've found, I an actually correct. Here's a nice neat synopsis of several articles on the subject. There are easily more - they are everywhere ion the internet.

Personally, I would err on the side of caution. If there is ANY chance that there might be trauma, I would not do it. Religious culture or not. I come from a background where "spare the rod and spoil the child" was the proper way to raise children. Sometimes religion and tradition is just plain wrong.

From the link Not Afraid provided, I find this claim interesting:

Male Circumcision Affects Female Sexual Enjoyment

A survey of women who have had sexual experience with circumcised and anatomically complete partners showed that the anatomically complete penis was preferred over the circumcised penis. Without the foreskin to provide a movable sleeve of skin, intercourse with a circumcised penis resulted in female discomfort from increased friction, abrasion, and loss of natural secretions. Respondents overwhelmingly concurred that the mechanics of coitus were different for the two groups of men. Unaltered men tended to thrust more gently with shorter strokes.

Obviously I've never had a woman say "wow, you're circumcised penis is much less pleasant than the uncircumcised ones I've experienced." But perhaps they were just protecting my feelings.

So, those who have experienced both, do you find one better than the other?

I also like the other cite that says the only reason I'm not upset about being circumscised is that I don't understand what it is and have repressed my anger.
