Re: Should I get circumcised ?

It's not like cutting your fingernails you know. Once you've cut off those nerves and all that sensitive skin you'll never have those feelings ever again in your entire life. It's up to you but I'd do a little more research if I were you.
 
Re: Should I get circumcised ?

It belongs there or it wouldn't be there. Jews and most Americans are cut, and mostly as newborns. When done as an adult it is usually because of a medical issue.

Most men worldwide are intact. With normal hygiene it can be kept clean.

"With normal hygiene it IS kept clean. Why mutulate one of your best friends - I was never able to understand that...
 
Re: Should I get circumcised ?

Yes if you have a foreskin problem.

No if you don't.
 
Re: Should I get circumcised ?

Again. I say, what the hell. It isn't like it won't grow back in a few weeks.
 
Re: Should I get circumcised ?

There is away to grow it back. I think it's called foreskin restoration
 
Re: Should I get circumcised ?

Why (unless it is medical reasons and even then???) in hells name would you want to get a circumcision as an adult???
 
Re: Should I get circumcised ?

I'm way against it for children, and in your case, I don't really care because you are an adult who can choose to do whatever he wants to his body IMO as long as you are able to access good information on the subject, but I am more curious as to what the deal is with getting it done this Saturday?

Is a mohel having like a firesale or something? What's the rush? Why Saturday?

Although I said I didn't care, since you asked for advice, common sense dictates it's best not to cut off parts of your body especially when it's kind of a manic "gotta do it saturday" type thing. You should think about it for a few months and see if you still want to then (sorry that's my best advice, and it's what I use when I am thinking of buying something).
 
Re: Should I get circumcised ?

oh god, first, you should do some research for yourself about this matter.

If you have medical problem or something like that, then do accordingly to the doctor's order.
If you want to circumcise just for the look or fit in or whatever else, DON'T. #-o

It's your choice after all, do some research first though. And don't do it yourself...
 
Re: Should I get circumcised ?

Let me put something into perspective on what a urologist I saw tell me, "If you are able to clean it properly daily and it doesn't cause discomfort during sexual activity then there is no reason to have a circumcision done." As others have stated, unless there is a dire medical emergency, honestly why would you want to put yourself through that pain as an adult? Guys bitch about getting a vasectomy, can you imagine the pain for getting a circumcision?
 
Re: Should I get circumcised ?

Don't because it really hurts!! You can't really undo the procedure if you're not happy with the results.

Also, it seems fishy that you can get this procedure done this Saturday... Are you going to go to an underground clinic or a sketchy doctor in Mexico? Places like those should be avoided, NO exceptions. You could get complications!!
 
Re: Should I get circumcised ?

There is away to grow it back. I think it's called foreskin restoration

http://www.noharmm.org/advantage.htm

The foreskin contains branches of the dorsal nerve and between 10,000 and 20,000 specialized erotogenic nerve endings of several types, which are capable of sensing slight motion and stretch, subtle changes in temperature, and fine gradations in texture

Foreskin restoration uses the skin that's on the shaft of the penis. That skin is stretched forward to cover the glans. Penile skin contains nerves, but nowhere near the number and sensitivity of those present in the foreskin. Foreskin restoration does not restore portions of the frenulum or the ridged band removed during circumcision.

The Ridged Band

Re: Should I get circumcised ?

I have this to say to those who say you should consider circumcision for hygiene reasons:

If a person doesn't brush their teeth regularly, he runs the risk of gum disease and halitosis. Would you recommend that he have all his teeth pulled just because he can't be bothered to brush them at least once or twice a day? No, you wouldn't.

It's the same principle with a foreskin.
A little daily maintenance takes care of most problems.
 
Re: Should I get circumcised ?

should you decide you want it back later, the restoration process is very expensive, time consuming and not successful many times. i have to admit, cut is easier to maintain.

btw, the study re aids and circ was in africa and they concluded it could possibly help heteros but def was not of benefit to homos.
 
Re: Should I get circumcised ?

i'm circumsized but if i wasn't i wouldnt go through the trouble in my adult life to get it snipped. i dont think the pain of it would be worth it.
 
Re: Should I get circumcised ?

it seems odd that the OP is not contributing any more information to this issue at this time -- (time diff and all-- whatever) --
you'd think he would have said if there were "medical issues" -- but unless they are grave - and the MD is standing over you with a (hopefully) sharp knife - saying "it must go " then WHY oh WHY would you wanna do that??
It's one thing for guys to "have a preference" - but it's another --altogether-- to say take it off because (I) don't like skin!! good grief -- think about what you're saying?
okay - you're all going in for surgery cuz I like it -and you're all gonna have skin sewen on -- would you go for that? fuck no!! -
and unbiased doctors? please -- they are still talking mothers into chopping up their baby boys -when the AMA has officially come out against circumcision since what? 1991?? - They could give a rats ass about your pee pee -- ==they get to CHARGE for that -- and it's extra add-on money for them - that's all it is !! the rest is total bullshit !!
So - if the piglet wants to tell us that it's turned purple and is about to fall off if the skin doesnt' come off - then I can't think of ONE good reason to undo whhat you've been walking around with your whole life - without issue.

and LASTLY - if you are gonna cut it off - then please send it to me - cuz I've wanted one for like 50 years - and I haven't been able to find any nice ones on sale.......anywhere.....
 
Re: Should I get circumcised ?

Why the fuck would you want to do that? It's just some stupid cultural and religious tradition.
 
Re: Should I get circumcised ?

Ok, I AM putting up a response - I just wanted to give time to collect a few opinions first.

I have thought about it, so I'm not making a decision on ONLY your votes. But, all of you are representative of guys I might meet one day, so what you like is relevant.

There is a walk-in clinic that only does cuts on certain saturdays througout the year. Mostly I cannot fit it in with my timetable, but this weekend happens to be good. If I skip this one, the next possible one might be a long way off.

I have no medical or physical problem. But 4skins kinda gross me out when I encounter them, so I figured I should be the way I like other to be.

Next question: is it true (my observations seem to show this) that cut cocks tend to stick out more, or look slightly hard even when soft, while uncuts generally hang straight down?
I'd really like to get a 'slightly hard even when soft' look, if that can be done by means of a circ.
 
Re: Should I get circumcised ?

If you have no issues or problems with your foreskin, I would leave it alone. The recovery time after removing your foreskin is long, and you will go a few weeks without being able to jack off.

Also...it doesn't sound very reliable that a clinic has a walk in policy on circumsion. I would be very wary of that. It is your cock, you only get one.
