I think circumcision is helpful in the prevention of infections (along with a soap bar of course) and it helps prevent penile cancer and possible cervical cancer in their partners. Its also done for religious purposes and that should be respected even if not understood.
What I don't understand is how we can get all worked up over taking a piece of skin off of a babies penis the moment they are born, but its ok when they are coming out the birth canal to stab a pair of sissors in the back of their heads and suck their brains out before they take their first breath of air. (partial birth abortion) God help this Country. Just an opinion ... I don't need a ton of mean , sarcastic replies.

Many European Parliamentary parties are considering banning the circumcision on new born boys. The circumcision of girls has already been banned for many years now, but now boys may not be able to legally circumcised in certain European countries. Circumcision was originally a Jewish tradition, but many Muslim and Christians have supported the practice for many years as well. Why you ask? Because many people feel that boys or men should be able to decide for themselves whether they would like to be circumcised. The age of consent and jurisdiction over ones own body is 15 in Denmark where this proposal started.
Should the proposal to ban circumcision pass? Should circumcision be left up to the individual?

Abortion should be banned too if a girl doesn't want a have a kid or aint ready to have a kid then she needs to keep her legs closed until she is ready
as for rape victims i'm sorry to hear it happened but even they can put it up for an adoption to someone that will love and care for it
He said it is a man's choice and a woman should have no part in making decisions about circumcision. I said in that case men should not comment on abortion... since it is a woman's body and a woman's choice. He said I can't imagine what that decision would be like so I don't even try. I said good. If he did want to comment about abortion, that would make him a hypocrite since he said that women can't comment about a man's body, but he would be commenting about a woman's body. Get it?
I don't agree with you and that's fine. I'm not going to argue with you over abortion in a poll about circumcision. Thank you.
I'm a guy and I get pissed when girls opine on this. You should let a man decide if he wants it or not.
If you suddenly woke up one day and your BF wasn't circumsized you'd leave em? you see how silly your thinking is?
anyway women shouldn't comment on the law regarding a male's genitalia. Men don't cut your twat lips off when your a baby cuz they stink like fish sometimes or could be a breeding ground for warts that cause cancer-- do we?
way to be narrow minded.
And I'd have loved if they had done that for me at birth cause then I wouldn't have to pay for it to be done now and be feeling the pain and be prevented from having sex while it healed.
I think that's pretty stupid of you to say
so you're also a liar along judgmental and stupid I see. Fantastic.
#2 you haven't done your research on exactly what a foreskin is.
#3 your stubborn and not willing to learn - I feel bad for your future son whose foreskin your gonna chop off. doesn't matter what age it's not right.
- a foreskin is nerve tissue - you take away 50% of a man's sensation when you cut it off.. - would you like to feel 50% less than what you do now? yah right let's see this one.
How do you figure I don't know what a foreskin is? Just because I'm not a guy? Well by that logic you don't know what a vagina is because you're not a girl.
And you're not teaching me anything you just said I should shut up and have my vagina ripped off. THAT'S EDUCATIONAL!
Where did you get that 50% from anyway?
research it and learn - it's not just dead skin.. it's nerve endings that are being taken away from a man. Sometimes men are damaged for life due to scar tissue .. but men don't speak about it out of shame or embarrassment.
GOOGLE : loss of sensation circumcision
then add the words 50% loss of sensation you'll see
there are even photos of people who had botched ones
it's not fair or pretty
I did just type in just sensation after circumcision and found this "Only 18% of the patients complained about loss of/or altered penile sensation, whereas 38% found better sensation" That kind of contradicts what you've been saying.
I've said it over and over it's not for a woman to decide you have no idea how a man feels sensation
god made a man with a forsekin for a reason to protect the penis..
do you want to learn why a man is here telling you it shouldn't be done? or are you just here to argue? you're not a man so why is it so important to you.. you are shallow b/c it's a deciding factor for you in your boyfriends. This is not the sign of an intelligent woman.

and I already explained this. no guy is gonna wanna be with someone who isn't going to have sex him. If there is an uncircumcised guy out there who is and they wanna be with me I'm all for it. I already said that. Why are you too stubborn to accept that? or are you too stupid to accept that? I don't care.
Stop lying and pulling figures out of your ass and being a hypocrite. It's just stupid.
it's plain as day - they are erogenous tissues that are being cut off..
for all the pros out there there are many cons... more..
50% of the nerve ending tissue in the region is removed. your ignorant it's not something I have to prove it's common sense you are incredibly dumb even for 17
How does it feel to know that you're more stupid than a 17 year old girl?
when you graduate college magna cum laude then we'll talk about who is stupid
You'd probably make a good government official with all your lying and made up facts lol
You don't understand what nerve tissue is removed. I can't suddenly make you a reasonable person.
you win - everyone who bothers to read this far will surely think you are brilliant
there are entire organizations devoted to preventing un-necessary circumcision there are thousands of men who have had the foreskin reconstructed b.c the loss of sensation was so devastating to them later in life. There are even some men who live with damage and can't do anything about it.
you refuse to believe it or look into it. why you care so deeply about this I have no idea --- you are a girl..let it go
I thought you came here to learn something but I think you just want to argue
All I found was stuff that contradicted you. All I found was stuff that contradicted you. All I found was stuff that contradicted you. All I found was stuff that contradicted you. All I found was stuff that contradicted you. All I found was stuff that contradicted you. All I found was stuff that contradicted you. All I found was stuff that contradicted you. All I found was stuff that contradicted you.
Do you understand? Did you absorb it that time? You haven't given me anything to look at besides your typed words and you've lied enough about things I've said, putting words in my mouth and making up things that don't make sense, that I give your words no credit.
And again just in case, I did look it up, all I found was stuff that contradicted you.
how much more you want to keep going?
