Ask Lemmy

No, I have never wished that. But then again no one I know is circumcised

No

There will always be one kid who will try and find something to bully someone else about.

Not American, not circumcised and I never want to be.

Adding my No to the pile, but also, heads up - we're in the Midwest, kept out sons intact, but we had to say no something like six times for each of them. If you decide you don't want them cut (which is my advice), make sure you're both holding firm on that!

To all those ignoring your question and trying to bully you. Fuck off. I commend you for trying to get more information on a divisive topic. Congrats on your son!

I live in a flyover state, and was never teased in the locker room for being uncircumcised. No one even brought it up. Had they, I'm sure my response would've been "why you looking at my dick, bro? You hungry?".

Cleaning is as easy as any other body part.

I've never had a negative interaction about it with any girl. I don't think most girls know what they're looking at with a lot of detail.

My son isn't either, and I just showed him how to bathe properly early on (keeping in mind kids often forget it don't understand and need little of reinforcement for anything). "If you don't scrub a body part with soap, it isn't getting cleaned". That's true for armpits, feet, whatever. Never a problem.

It's amazing that most of the world is uncircumcised, and doesn't have a problem. It's only the United States where we have to chop off boys dicks?

I never ever thought I'd want to be circumsized. I really enjoyed the sensitivity and all that, blowjobs were awesome etc.

I even remember some PoS noctor pediatrician insisting on it to my parents even as I was like 5-7, which they rightfully called him out on as motivated by his muslim religion/culture rather than sound real medical reasoning.

Even as a kid, it was nice to see my folks stand up to me, and it still matters to my nearly 30 year old ass today when it comes to enjoyment of sex, a whole-ass sex change later.

My also-trans gf said she wished she wasn't circumsized as well.

Don’t do it

No, not once have I ever even considered it.

I'm circumcised, but I can give the answer to if I wish I were uncircumcised. I would only want to choose circumcision if I looked into it and determined it to be good.

There's someone whose name I forgot who called this out as being barbarism at Harvard or Columbia before getting kicked out for basically giving the truth on circumcision.

my uncle did this to my cousin. He quote " I did it so he doesnt hurt self" to which my father agreed. I dont quite understand wtf they are doing to themselves that circumcision was the solution. He Also said the doctor tried to convince him otherwise.

Also a dick is dick. Once the skin pulls back during sex I doubt anyone really notices.

Nope. It feels real good, and other guys go crazy for it (usually)

No and We would never even see if anyone was circumcised or not in school

When I was younger, sure.

Now, and for most of my life, no. I don't fucking care and neither has anyone I've been with (except one, but she sucked as a person).

Nowadays, I'd say of the close friends I have it's a 50/50 split. It really isn't as common as I thought.

I agreed to do it for my first son.

the screaming broke me. I can still hear his cries.

my second son, they didn't even ask and just did it. I was furious.

don't do it.
