UK Headline: Should All Boys Be Circumcised?

When a British newspaper, a country where circumcision was sadly abandoned a couple generations ago, headlines an article like this -- "Should All Boys Be Circumcised?" -- then you know that the overwhelming medical evidence to circumcise all boys is sinking in.

I love the reporter's lead sentence: "If you were the parent of a baby boy and were told a minor operation could provide him with protection against three diseases (at least) that kill millions worldwide, would you be interested? It is safe to assume that you would. When, however, you discovered that the operation in question was circumcision, would your enthusiasm dwindle?"

In Great Britain, unlike America, the foreskin had a come-back, so being clean cut -- while perfectly acceptable -- is not the norm. At least not yet. The good news is that more British sons are being circumcised, as the growing evidence for universal circumcision mounts. So here's a shout-out to our British cousins (who actually introduced circumcision to America a hundred years ago) who are following the medical science to a clean-cut country.

  1. About time too the average British male does not practise good penis hygiene.

  2. Only liars would try to spread this perversion under a health guise! What a bunch of liars they are!

  3. Rubbish, foreskins especially long and tight ones smell.

  4. Nonsense - unwashed feet also smell, so yours should be cut off today to prevent that in case you go senile & can't wash them! By your logic that's the right thing to do!

  5. I welcome all you Anonymous posters, but it's sometimes hard to keep you straight. Anti-circ foreskin lovers may not like to admit it, but circumcision is a health measure. Comparing a filthy foreskin to unwashed feet is ludicrous. Obviously, feet have an important purpose. The foreskin does not. End of story.

  6. Listen ask any uncut guy to skin back say 3pm having washed at 7am and the musky smell is too much.

  7. End of story? Now that is rubbish!
    It is true that circumfetish perverts can't admit that they are exactly that - perverts! But then again perverts never, never, never know that they are perverts and thats especially true if their perversion is widely condoned! The slavers didn't know that there is something with slavery! The Romans didn't know there was something wrong with throwing Christians to lions & circumfetish perverts CANNOT comprehend there is something evilly wrong with them. It's just simply beyond them & they CANNOT be told. People in the psychological field call this process "NORMALIZATION", & once a crime has been NORMALIZED that's it! Forget about the labels they make up for others like "Homo's" & "Weirdo's" because its the Normo's that are the most stubborn criminals ever known! They are like You!

  8. What three diseases "that kill millions worldwide" does circumcision completely prevent?

  11. A foreskin is as filthy as a vulva. Period.

  12. Exactly, vulvas are stinky skanky things! I'm all for female circumcision... cut her up so there's just a clean hole left, no skin folds, and block those nasty vaginal glands that release those smelly juices too.

    Male genital mutilation is just WRONG and unnecessary!

    Females smell way worse than males down there!

    Before I realised I was gay, I found more smegma around the clitoris & labia of apparently "clean" girls than I have ever found on any uncut British penis!

    The penis of cut/mutilated guys produces smegma too but some rubs off on their underwear, leaving the head all dry and crusty and in most cases more smelly!

    And they say it's cleaner... such misinformation.. the propaganda of America's private healthcare industry! SICK!

  13. At age 12 I had a rather long and tight foreskin. My mother exlained to me that it was imperative for my glans to be exposed. So off to the doctor for the "snip".

  14. When my son was born, I had my OBGYN take the foreskin off to make it easier for him to keep that part clean and I think it looks better with the head uncovered. Hubby is also sans foreskin.

  15. I feel bad, you do not have the intellectual honesty to accept any other way of thinking on this matter.

    that is not how debate works. you should know both sides of the argument if that was what you wanted.

    try restoring your foreskin for a month, I dare you.
