Has no one mentioned the medical condition of the foreskin "shrinking" with age, thereby making erections and subsequent intercourse painful? It's not just about the religious or cleanliness issue.

History has shown that it was easier and less harmful dealing with that pesky piece of extra skin before maturity made it a real problem.

Just another attempt by hidden agenda folks to focus on a specific belief wrongfully associated with a particular religion with misguided politico's going along for the ride.

Oh, I get it. If a man is circumcised he is a loser. What a compelling argument.

Have you ever been in the military? Have you ever been in combat or maneuvers? This may come as a shock to you, but we don't always have instant access to hot showers and soap ... and smegma is really gross.

If not for religion, practiced largely in Islam and Judaism, the need for circumcision wouldn't exist.

How bogus.

I am a liberal and I am in favor of circumcision.
Because it's the liberals who stand up for:
- saving murderers while killing babies
- will take away gun rights, unless it's for their own protection (See Rosie ODonnnel)
- want to raise taxes out of greed, not need
- hold Conservatives to ultra high standards yet have no standards at all for themselves (see Anthony Weiner, Barney Frank, Charlie Rangle)
- cry racist towards anyone who wants border security, immigration control, less entitlements, less foriegn aid, balanced budget, concerns about extreme Islam, and anything else that strikes your fancy... while in reality most of you are really deeply racist against whites, jews and the wealthy.
- NEED to have health care for all, unless a friend of Obama, Pelosi and Reed- then, NEED to have a waiver.
- Liberals don't want any conservatives praying in front of them, but they'll gladly impose their sexual preference, food eating choices, and attack religious or family based traditions.

The liberal goal of getting into every part of a persons life is quite apparent. The hypocrisy of the new liberal is so rediculous, so disgusting, and so dangerous that we can't help but compare everything in our lives to it.

Lately, the US is reminding me more and more of a certain European country in the late 20s.

Off topic. Pro-choice and Pro-life advocates come from people of all political
viewpoints. There are anti-abortion liberals and pro-choice conservatives.

The topic being discussed is circumcision, and I am in favor of it ... not for any religious reasons - although to take the right away from religious folks who practice is is wrong - but for health reasons, hygiene reasons, and aesthetic reasons.

They've created a comic book, with the hero Foreskin Man, who fights an evil, bloodthirsty rabbi who wants to circumcise boys.

This is NAZI propaganda at it's finest!

It's all for sexual pleasure due to the abundance of nerves. Same with the fore skin of a mans penis. Full of nerves.

IMHO, SF is doing this because it is the homosexual haven in the US. Docking is a favorite activity among homosexual men, they can't do that with circumcised partners. This is an attemp to get more "uncut" homosexual men into the community to increase the docking pool.
