Oh No! It's Another Thread About Circumcision.

Re: The story of a man who was forcible circumcised at a tabletop at the age of 8. In the US.

As we all known, it's not rare that an US city got it's name from a different city. There are towns named Montreal in Arkansas, Georgia, Missouri and Wisconsin .. I assumed that the article is talking about an US city since an US court granted him his reconstruction surgery.

The one in British Columbia, USA - right.

Anyway, the location is not that important to the story ...

Baby mutilators are baby mutilators, n'est pas? And since America is the bastion of baby mutilation, it may as well have happened here. Especially since it tells in graphic detail what it's like for everyone who's gone under the knife, even those who unable to verbalize the memory. As an added bonus, the Church's role in circumcision gets the front-and-center visibility it deserves, rather than the more subtle pressure they typically exert. Given this, why would it matter if this story is accurate, or actually "happened"?

Never let facts get in the way of a good story. And this story is very good, indeed.

What an obvious evasion.

Yeah, sorry you got me. It was an obvious and evil ploy to distract from the real story here. That's why the interview also focuses on how evil the US is, instead of the story that should be heard.

But you've accomplished what you set out to do, so it's all good.

I at least read the articles I reference.

I - and the main stream media - just the other day fell for a story that was ill-founded. Upon learning of the falsity of the storyline I posted a FULL DISCLOSURE in the HT and CEP threads where the storyline had been used.

Such would have been appropriate here.

(Despite the obvious implication that this could never have happened in Canada.)

The opening link and line in your quote names British Columbia. How obvious can it be?

Fixed that for you.

I read this, which if true is a horrific story. But at the end this is reported: "Foreskins obtained from circumcisions are used by bio-chemical and anatomical researchers to study skin. It’s used to make skin for burn patients, for skin grafts. It’s used for anti-aging skin cream…".

I can't believe this is true. I also always thought that in the USA circumcision was just done automatically and not itemised on a bill that the parents had to pay.

Am I living in "Never Never Land"?

Apparently you are.

Circumcision is not automatic, parents have to request it, and yes the cost of circumcision is on the itemised hospital bill.

IMO, all boys should be circumcised, if for no other reason than aesthetics, foreskin is ugly.

Are some of you claiming this thread is a rip off?

We're saying the reference to US should have been cut.

So why specify it in the title, just to bash and shit in the U.S.?

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. I grew up with a foreskin, was born in 1952 and most boys were circumcised, in the 6th grade we had showering after gym class, I felt like freak.
In my 20's I had the skin removed as I loved the look of a cut dick. Then a debate seemed to rise about cut vs. uncut, I did some research and found that from all I could read that the main reason for circ. was to prevent masturbation.
Some doctors believed that this act caused epilepsy, clubbed feet mental retardation and other problems.
We might just ask ourselves how many of these doctors suffered from any of these things because we know damned right well that they all jacked off.
Now, you have stated that a foreskin is ugly, truth be told some (very few) cocks are ugly, skin or not. I have seen some very hot intact
dick, at one time I didn't want to look at them, now I have a taste for them.
Whether this story is true or not, we must ask if an infant boy has any rights about unnecessary removal part of his penis just so he looks nicer.

I think that any "invasive" or "aesthetic" surgery , that can be carried out safely when the child is older and more importantly when the
"patient" can make such a decision for themselves is always the best way to go .

I have read several Threads here where members have openly discussed the fact that they are not happy that their foreskin was "taking" from them on the grounds that everyone else has it done .
I agree with them . To subject an infant to pain for no other reason than "Peer-Pressure" from their parents family and friends , is , in this day and age really more akin to child-abuse . *Runs for the hills*

PS.
Not even going to get into the Religious side of this argument . *Packs "sannies" for his stay in the hills*

^At the same time, if the medical profession was advocating it and it was recommended to parents who took their trusted doctor's advice, I don't think we should demonise them for it.

Men who hate their parents because their parents thought they were acting in the boy's best interests are simply ridiculous.

As you well know, even doctors have their own prejudices, so it is not unusual for them to recommend circumcision to patients when that is their personal preference. It's not necessarily based on any science. Even when it comes to medications, patients should not blindly accept their trusted physician if they have doubts and need time to do their own research. A good doctor would even encourage it and work with the patient.

I agree that it is silly for adult men to be angry at their parents for having them circumcised. It's a done deed that cannot be undone and in most cases, the surgery was not botched.
