I haven't had it done - I think I made that clear. Anyhoo, you can't 'sue your parents for assault' if they were doing it as your legal gaurdian, especially if it was for either medical or religious reasons.

Your foreskin went septic when you were three and had to have that cut off, or you had your foreskin removed when you were three and your penis went septic and had to be removed?

Female circumcision is something completely different. It's not cutting off a piece of loose skin. It's actually cutting away tissue which brings pleasure.
There are three degrees of it ranging from removing the labia majoris (outer lips) to removing all the labia and the clitoris.
The woman is then sewn up, so she has enough room to pee through.

This obviously leads to infections and everything.

Nobody would argue it is not the right thing to do in this case.
But the vast majority of male circumcision is just vanity.

You mean I flash mine around, and I want it to look as good as possible? Well, if it doesn't look good, why remove the cover?

I didn't mean to imply you had, I was just suggesting a course of action for those who have.

You could try, people have been sued for much sillier things; this is conspiracy to cause actual bodily harm, and premeditated at that.

Anyway, I was just trying to get in the sepo spirit...

You can put it in the hands of your attourney, but it'll never stand up in court...

It is safer to have it done at an earily age. I believe it is slightly more likely to cause medical complication when done later in life. I wish my parents had had me cut when i was born. It is also more aesthetic to be cut, no?

I'm cut, and I am fairly sure it's desensitized my penis. I'd much rather be uncut.

No. I don't believe that that is actually on the discussion table at the moment.

Maybe I should ask: Are you so lacking in self esteem you feel you need to avoid the subject at all costs?

I guess that's a matter of taste.
In my experience, it depends on where you are. In north America an uncut one is seen to be ugly and unhygienic whereas in the UK a cut one would be seen to be a bit unnatural and wierd in general.
