I will never understand circumcision as a trend. I don't even understand it as a religious practice.

Please stop cutting into your children's genitals for non-medical reasons. It's messed up.

    Completely agree.

    That being said, I want a circumcision.

    As someone who had one as an adult, I don't recommend it. Over time, it was like going from a 4K HDR OLED to a 720p prison TV. I'm now struggling mightily to get back to 1080p.

    Why did you get it done if don't mind my asking? Personal? Medical?

    Not at all. Phimosis, the worst my urologist had ever seen. We tried stretching and steroid cream but it only made it maybe 50% better. I now know there was a relatively simple procedure that would have fixed it, but the urologist said circumcision was the only option left. Thanks, shitty urologist!

    Wow, I'm sorry to hear that but very much appreciate your insight. I'm dealing with this now and honestly thought circumcision might be an extreme but agreeable fix. Haven't discussed with a doctor yet but will certainly keep what you've said in mind.

    You see life evolved to reproduce and so when people had competition but couldn't compete they had to find a way to put down others instead of build themselves up this is why there is such religious fervor around reproduction rights like celibacy or abortion or gender it is all a means of control to control supply and demand of mating, I would say chopping someone's dick off counts.

    IMO jokes about the barbaric, ongoing, and unnecessary practice of male genital mutilation just aren't any funnier than jokes about FGM.
