To circumcise or not to circumcise?
June 10, 2016 at 1:05 pm
Greetings, heathenistical turds.
Here's a hypothetical question for yall:
If you were were having a baby boy tomorrow, would you opt for him to be circumcised?
Why or why not?
Thanks!

I voted yes.
Why?
Because it looks better that way.
Your turn.

To this day I can't walk into a barber shop and say "just take a little off the top."
I voted no.

I'm an atheist, and while most atheists I come across here on .org or out on FB seem deeply offended at even the thought of being cut, I am glad I was. I'm a hetero male, so I don't like seeing pics of dick, but for me it's even worse with the foreskin. Especially when health problems develop with it.
So, for me, sorry kid, but you're gonna be cut.

Why would you be in favour of male genital mutilation?
You Americans are barbaric!

Not. In my generation most american boys were circumcised (I've never actually seen an uncircumcised penis in the flesh). Although circumcision was sold to americans as a hygienic measure, it really has no health benefits. It reduces sensation. It's a painful thing to do to a baby. I wouldn't do it to any child of mine. In a better world it would be illegal.
If there is a god, I want to believe that there is a god. If there is not a god, I want to believe that there is no god.

Fuck no. I had three sons. Why should it be up to me to decide if they get circumcised or not? That should be up to them.
