Am I selfish for wanting my pending son to be circumcised?
I just want it to look like mine...

Hopefully, we will all grow old enough to eventually wind up in hospitals (and hospital-type settings) as elderly people. Maybe not necessarily die in the hospital, but have some hospitalizations/hospital experiences that are typical with advanced age. And at that time, when some nurse/nursing student/resident has to stick a catheter into our bladders, it sure is a heck of a lot easier to do so in a flaccid circumcised penis, compared to the uncircumcised variety.

FWIW a survey said ladies are more likely to go down on circumcised guy.
Thanks mom and dad! ![]()

No one asked me. Born in a german hospital off base so snipping is standard. My older brother was also born in Germany but on base so it was not done.
He elected to have it done at the tender young age of 44. After 20 some odd years he admitted the reason he cut gym for pretty much all of HS was one day in the locker room a bunch of guys were picking on/harassing another kid. He went over to see what was up and realized they were picking on the kid because he was uncircumcised. Last time he went to gym class. Over the years he had also had some rejections from women because of it. Just one persons experience. YMMV.

Yes you're being selfish. You're talking about cosmetics. If your reasons were medical, then it'd be different.

Isn't it a form of genital mutilation that serves no purpose whatsoever?

Correct. But the chicks dig it.

No, you're not being selfish. You're talking about cosmetics, yes, but that in no way makes it wrong. Did you pick out a name? Bet it's not Tweedle the Turdchewer. It's probably something like Jason, or Steve. That's because how people perceive us is important. You're doing fine, pay no attention the the hand-wringing au-naturel ninnies. |

No your not! Here is all you ever wanted to know! We had it performed with my recent newborn before we took him home. The nurse said they do that to about 90% of all newborns

Yeah but so do the gay guys! Double-edged sword (no pun) if you ask me!
Besides I think by the time you get to the point where some chick is looking at your junk anyway, they've pretty much already decided they're going to let you stick it in 'em, cut or not... I don't know if being circumcised (or being uncircumcised) is a game-changer as far as that goes...

Have had it both ways (was cut around age 22 when I did not have any choice) and its not a big deal either way.
BTW, the foreskin goes a way when it gets stiff, so never had any issue with the girls.

I was circumcised as a newborn. It was awful. I couldn't walk for a year.

My 3 brothers and I were circumcised at 14. I don't know why my parents waited and we did not have a choice. Do it to him while he's a baby. The pain I felt when I woke up from the general anesthesia is something I will remember for the rest of my life. Also, after having mine done, my older brother who was circumcised 5 years prior thought it would be funny to bring his gf around. I was up and about in a dress when she came in the house. If he hadn't been bigger than me at the time, I'd have kicked his a55.
