But now in modern America is the 'standard procedure' still applied or is there some form of discussion and explication between the doctor and parents on the 'benefits' of having it done.

How much is a circumcision charged in hospital? Who pays if there is no medical insurance?

If there is no insurance the practice seems to be a non issue, I believe that the "welfare" types of coverage for the poor stopped paying for it.
Also some insurances now refuse. As for cost, I find from poking around on the internet a range of $150.-$500.

You've sort of just repeated the question.

Only, the thread's author isn't asking about everyone. Pickwick is focusing his inquiry to the popularity of circumcision in 'The US'. Or, why do so many people in 'The US' care about, or concern themselves with, a child's foreskin?

That's it...

At the time I was un-circumcised and felt like a freak as nearly every guy I had ever seen naked(I saw plenty) was cut. I wanted my son to fit in and raised no questions.
I should add that the topic never came up before birth.

That's weird, didn't you think about the fact you as any other human male was born with a foreskin so just be proud about it ?!
Well I don't want to creat a misunderstanding and question any body's beliefs and religion, but out of this and unless your son had no (what's the word again ?!) phimosis (foreskin to tight) can anyone tell me what's the point ?!

In America, foreskins are considered a delicacy- served with a red sauce, preferably over rice or cappellini.

Long may American parents carry on this fine tradition, they just look better than a drooping snood.
 
Re: What is the thing with circumcision in The US ?!

Regardless of being pro or anti circumcision, can I just put it out there that when people say that I'm "mutilated," and talk about how much better and more attractive and more natural an "intact" (as opposed to broken and disfigured, I guess) guy is, and how I'll never enjoy sex as much as I should, and how my parents are terrible monsters for disfiguring a baby... I just want to punch them in their godforsaken shitty little faces. No, I probably won't circumcise my child, but making it out to be some awful, life-ruining disfigurement is a) incorrect and b) demeaning to me and other happily circumcised men. That is all.

Edit: This rant inspired by some random video I saw on facebook, not by any comments in this thread. This just seemed a more appropriate place to rant about my dick than where grammy can see. ;)

This was in the day before I began questioning doctors and other authority. It was a non issue at the time.
 
Re: What is the thing with circumcision in The US ?!

This is such a controversial issue, probably impossible to post a comment without being challenged. First, I am circumcised and very pleased with being cut. Totally personal opinion but I view a cut penis as more pleasing to observe. Then there is the whole back and forth argument about health benefits, fewer UTI's in infants, studies about HIV and STD prevention, reduced incidence of penile cancer, etc. I believe the American Medical Assn. or some similar national association of Doctors, just published a new draft paper which for the first time cites the positive benefits of circumcision; while still emphasizing that the procedure should be personal choice of parents or adults. My two cents. ..:)
 
Re: What is the thing with circumcision in The US ?!

People are big babies anymore. I've heard about all the health benefits Cody mentioned, besides I think it's more aesthetically pleasing, but that's besides the point. Anyone can post a video of a circumcision and decry its usefulness. But news flash, every surgery is gross! It's like showing a video of someone getting a bullet surgically removed and saying it should just be left in, because surgery is gross and you bleed during surgery. Heaven's to betsy.

There in lies the rub, doctors recommending a procedure that doctors in other nations see as unnecessary. Why the difference of opinion?
Could it be that the doctors that recommend it are in a for profit system and those who don't are not? Follow the money trail.

As for looks I prefer the looks of a cut cock over that of natural, but I try not to let that cloud my judgment.

My son was circumcised, he has discussed this with me, it has in no way had any ill effect on him. He has had sex all over the world (he was in the navy) he is not mad or bitter.

I see the procedure as unnecessary and a way to make a few bucks.

Did I ever say anything like this ?! I just want to know what the given reason, if it is not religious and can't be medical with a baby ?! And for the record I had a Moroccan lover once (Muslim so circumcised) and I worshipped is cock so much. And my brother has a phimosis and is willing to get rid of his foreskin... Well as i said exepted those two reason i just can't see the point... A week ago I was watching a movie about this English gay guy leaving in New York and getting married to his Best lesbian friend to get green card and when immigration asked "are/is you/he circumcised ?" The only answer was "I/he am/is Brittish." So yes I wondered is all the men cut in America and what is the deal about it ?!
