Why do you think men are afraid of being circumcised?

Question

Male circumcision is an obligatory religious protocol in the religion of Islam and the Jewish religion.

My guess, as a man myself, though my mother took that decision out of my hands when she opted for the medical staff that delivered me take scissors to my little Wi Wi & snip, & not even take the initiative to keep my foreskin in case I may have wanted it. Wait, what was the question again? Sorry, I'm still pissed that a piece of me was ripped away & stolen from me mere moments after I was thrusted into this cruel world. Oh yeah, circumcision, men, afraid, right. Although I'm disqualified from this exact scenario, I can still confirm that me personally strongly prefer that sharp objects, especially when out of my control maintain social distancing at all times. Accident's happen, & if one were too occur while on the operating table leading too your little guy's paralysis & ultimate permanent dysfunction has the potential too, & more than likely will lead too a very deep depression which that man may never escape from. A side from that I personally know someone who when we were 14 decided to have that procedure done as he was afraid that girl's would find his junk's natural, but odd appearance funny. So he had it done, & I remember not only how much pain he was in for like a week after, but the surgeon's instructions included how he was not too get an erection for two whole weeks or there would be some consequences. We are talking about a 14 year old boy here, let's just say he suffered some consequences. So that is my very long winded answer to your question, I hope it provided some helpful insight. P. S. removing that piece of skin is actually removing the most sensitive nerves from the organ, & therefore it eliminates the sensation nature intended for really no good reason since those religious practices are as a result of hygienic inadequacies, but in the modern age hygiene is a much easier thing to maintain, meaning the act of circumcision is more or less a cultural practice more than any real necessity.

For the same reason women are. What, you think genital mutilation's acceptability is based on chromosomes? The foreskin has so many nerve endings that once it's removed, the ENTIRE PENIS has fewer than the external part- just the external part- of the clitoris. And with nothing shielding it from constant contact with clothing, the glans not only gets desensitized, but keratinized, knocking it down still further. And let's not forget that removing the frenulum pretty much eliminates the possibility of multiple orgasms.

Maimonides himself admitted that the entire point was to reduce the pleasure that sex and masturbation provide.

All those things COULD be overlooked, if it were a matter of adults making decisions for themselves- but it's usually not. See, an 8-day-old boy isn't a Jew. He isn't a Muslim. He isn't a part of ANY religion, organized or otherwise. He is a baby. Under any other circumstance, we'd call that sexual abuse.

My son is circumcized, it was a discussion I had with his father & he was incredibly adamant about our child being circumcised. I personally didn't care one way or the other, so it was dad's decision in the end.

Our baby doesn't even remember the event & he hasn't had any complications with his peenie. It also helped that the Doc who did it has done a plethora of circumcisions in his +20yrs in the practice.

If you don't want your son circumcised, don't do it. Just like if you're not a fan of abortion, don't get one.

I’m not in favor of male genital mutilation unless it’s for medical reasons.

I don’t see any reason as to why I would clip off my son’s (if I have one in the future) foreskin.

Besides, the procedure become riskier as the child grows older. It is better to perform the surgery when the kid is <1 year old. So it won’t be the child’s choice, would it? Anesthesia complications, risk of contracting infections are minimal if the surgery is performed on a baby instead of a grown man or an older child.

bolverk · Answer

Male Circumcision is done for the same 'reason' as Female Genital Mutilation (FGM), the same 'obligatory religious protocol'
It is done for no valid medical reason, unless in later life if there is a bound foreskin, It is rarely done in the UK, but in the US is a usually done because there is a financial motive, which they usually disguise behind the ‘hygiene excuse’,
I come from a family with Jewish grandparents Immigrants to the UK from Germany) on one side but they did not push being circumcised on their grandsons, saying it could be done later if the grandsons wished to take up Judaism

ChrisMaster69 · Answer

We are not afraid, it’s just most men live in the 21st century and not the 6th century BC.

We can actually clean ourselves, not really something that’s hard to do for a guy with a basic level of intelligence.

You go on keep promoting genital mutilation.

Amazing how religion is used as an excuse to mutilate boys and girls genitals…

really sad and pathetic.

Kaneki05 · Answer

Why would anyone be afraid of having just come skin cut off? Think it's more like people are more strongly emotional about some skin for some odd sense of pride that they don't want it to be gone. But afraid? nah.

As for myself I couldn't care either it's just some skin. And one has to remove it anyway if they come under phimosis.

lrina · Answer

uh, maybe because part of their body is literally being cut off? i don't think you'd be too excited if one of your body parts had to be chopped off. sure, it's under anesthesia, but that still doesn't mean that it's not scary.

agonz914 · Answer

They where born with it. It's painful and unecessary. a lot of things about religion don't make sense tho.

Quidthonian · Answer

I am still uncut at age 43; I am interested in the topic and would like to get the low and loose cut. What is holding me back is the recovery time. For me, my circumcision would have been for aesthetic reasons: I am afraid that they will give me something I don't want.
The fear for me is the recovery pain, the fear of something going wrong during the operation.

Apple1996 · Answer

I don't know who the fuck wouldn't be afraid of any part of their bodies being chopped off? Especially part of their genitals like fuck that ain't nobody should be chopping off any part of their body.

Daniela1982 · Answer

Because they are afraid they would cut off too much and then they would forever be known afterwards as "stumpy".

SamIam96 · Answer

I don't think many men are afraid of it. The procedure is usually done at such a young age that most of us don't remember. My objection is that a healthy baby shouldn't be mutilated for any reason including religious tradition.

mattissebfan5 · Answer

Well it is barbaric we are born with that and only person who should have a say is the person if the person grow they can decide when older otherwise it's terrible imagine having part of your vagina cut off it the same

Anonymous · Answer

Afraid? I don't think they are afraid but the whole practise seems a bit pointless and barbaric to me. Men evolved with it covered for a purpose so maybe you should research that instead of trying to impose religious ideals.

GreedGod · Answer

Mine is circumsized not for religious reason but due to medical reason when I was probably like 1 year old or something. I don't know even remember it. But I guess it makes a lot of things easier. You know what I mean.

Lionman95 · Answer

Because it´s painful and seems unnecessary. There are not many reasons to get circumcised as an adult.

Buntyp · Answer

Are you serious? Adults assaulting babies and children with knives is disgusting behavior, no matter how many religions make it an obligation.

Vast majority of men do not have a choice as it's done when they are infants. I have been to two circumcision ceremonies and both of them were very heavy. They did it with a shaving blade.

Subarugirl · Answer

Because it’s a barbaric practice and genital mutilation…

Juxtapose · Answer

I have my foreskin and I can tell you it is just as sensitive as people claim it is. If you lose your foreskin guys you are basically losing a clitoris.

Still-alive · Answer

well brace yourself there's a lot of strong opinions on this... but while some view it as religious obligations... others view it as genital mutilation and violating their body.

OpenClose · Answer

I mean some religions require girls get skin removed or to even get sewn shut. Isn't that, like, for her to decide later?

grega239 · Answer

My opposition to circumcision is because. 1. The baby didn't consent. 2. How fucked up is it to butcher your own child. Thank fuck it totally illegal in my country.

MarkusCopeland · Answer

No, thanks. Knowing I'd had part of myself chopped off for religion is one of the most demeaning and invasive things I can think of.  The practice should be dead outside of valid medical reasons.

ODC2112 · Answer

Everyone does not want to be mutilated, normally those who speak well of it are those who were mutilated as children and have no memories of it. Let's put it in the opposite, maybe you will answer yourself. Why don't women want to be infibulated?

I am not afraid in today's society given modern health care. But in the same respect females should be openly agreeable to circumcision as well disregarding the cutting off of her Clitoris which was done in ancient middle east.

Firstly call it what it is, male genital mutilation. Second , it's not right that this is done before the child is capable of having a say in it.

There’s a bunch of negative effects it has. But more importantly is the objection to doing it to kids, that’s the awful part. And women who are into such mutilation are creepy AF.
