Male Circumcision is completely safe and has numerous health benefits, among which is reducing the risk of HIV and other STDs, it's also easier to clean and most women prefer the cut look to uncut. It is also a covenant with God.
I was circumcised after I was born. I enjoy sex just fine. It doesn't make any difference.
Sigh....I worked as a nurse in a small hospital in a general surgical unit. I can't tell you how many adult male circumcisions were performed and according to the men it was excruciatingly painful. They developed strictures, chronic UTI's and a few other related health issues - all would not have happened if they had the procedure as infants. Every single one of those men wished they had been circumcised as infants.
I am certain they did and for 1 good reason. They wouldn't remember it.
No elective surgery should be done to an infant unless it is for health concerns.

I don't know many sexual active infants at risk of contracting HIV and other STIs. Do you? If a man, or a teenage boy, wants to reduce his risk of contracting STIs, then by all means he should consider having himself circumcised.

Cool. If a man, or a teenage boy, wants to enter into a covenant with a god by lopping off part of his genitals, he should absolutely be free to make that decision.

How could you possibly know that?

How would you know? You don't have a before and after reference.

I'm rather thankful my mom had me circumcised as a newborn, so I wouldn't have to worry about it in adulthood. Yikes!

What if you felt otherwise (like many men do)? What other body parts do you think your mother should have had the right to permanently cut off you?
Hard to say whether these "many" men feel bad about it all on their own, or because someone was harping on the topic, saying crap like "You probably don't feel 'whole', huh?" or "You'll never know how good sex would've been!!" But there's no winning on that, really. I might've felt otherwise, and that would suck. But then I'd feel pretty bad if I had to (or felt like I had to) get a circumcision as an adult, whether it be for the sake of my health or the whole aesthetic argument.
And what other body parts do you think there are benefits to removing, that might justify the loss/risks?
From reading medical information and talking to Doctors. I also know someone who went from uncut to cut and he said he doesn't notice any difference.
That's like saying I know what an orgasm feels like from reading medical information.
It doesn't work that way.
