Reversing That Circumcision Even Scarier Than You Thought

Details just published a harrowing and, admittedly, compulsively readable piece on guys who attempt to regain the penises they were given at birth.
We're talking about their uncircumcised penises, of course. Methods for rolling back the clock to the moment before the blade include surgery and foreskin-stretching products... and the results are surprisingly without side effects...
As a fitness trainer and former professional boxer, Jonathan understood that with patience and hard work the body can be transformed. So he went online and purchased a device called the TLC Tugger. Jonathan is now eight months into a two-to-four-year foreskin-stretching process using the device. He wears it around the clock

Those guys are a couple of dicks.
The USA is the only civilized nation on earth that practices circumcision. Approximately 60% of babies here are still cut, but the numbers are slowly declining.
If people only knew what was involved. The foreskin on a newborn is attached to the glans in the same manner that your fingernails are attached to your fingertips. Imagine having your fingernails removed with pliers.
It is a crime to chop off body parts from another person. Circumcision is our national shame.
Let circumcision be a choice at 17 years of age. If it were, the practice would die a quick death.
This is brutal. I've been really glad about the awareness popping up (SO TO SPEAK) about how wretched circumcision is. To be honest, I find cut penises to be very very gross. And I'm not a wimp. They just look raw and sore and unnatural.
Circumcision materially reduces the risk of HIV infection. The data were so compelling, the study was stopped because it would have been unethical to continue to not inform subjects of the value of circumcision. https://www.nytimes.com/2006/12/14/health/14hiv.html
Foreskins do not cause HIV. Having sex with infected strangers causes HIV.
Europe has a far lower incidence rate in STDs and HIV than America, and no one over there is circumcized.
Sorry, to burst your bubble.
And I guess the Jews Against Circumcision are able to see into the future and predict which baby boys will have unprotected sex and which of their partners might be HIV positive.
Hey, are you like Jews For Jesus? I always thought they were a lot like Democrats For Nixon.
The Times article was from 2006. Here's something more recent. The jury is still out as to whether circumcision can help prevent HIV infection. https://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/health/7656229.stm
That's a legitimate criticism, KDM. But note that the CDC study focused on gay men, while the African study was focused on heterosexual men. So the JAC crystal ball also has to extend to identifying each infant boy in question as gay or straight.
Isn't the point obvious?
If you want to protect people against HIV, use education not genital mutilation.
Do we tell whites that they need to circumcise to fight against HIV? No we use education. But when it comes to Africans these people brush education aside as if it's doomed to be ineffectual and go for the circumcision.
There's some racism in that attitude.
What in the world do Jews for Jesus have to do with us?
Nothing.
Hey Jews Against Circumcision, since when are the vast majority of the nations on the continent of Africa, all of the Middle East and Central Asia, the west coast of the Adriatic, the islands of the South Pacific, Australia, Canada, and South Korea uncivilized?
If you're going to advocate against something, try not be such a bigoted asshole in the process.
Here comes the ad hominem.
circumcision helps reduce the transmission of hiv it does not prevent it. and doesnt israel do a lot of circumsizing? or isnt it an industrialized nation?
You have a choice: mutilate baby boys or teach them as adults to be selective about who they have sex with.
As pointed out earlier, Europe has a far lower incidence rate of STD and HIV than the USA.
It's racist to claim that Africans should adopt this barbaric practice because they can't be educated about safe sex.
JAC:
You're the only person suggesting that circumcision is being used in place of educating people in Africa because "they can't be educated". Perhaps we're doing a bit of transference?
as for the "ad hominem" attacks, watch your straw man, my friend.
I can't believe noone's mentioned the cleanliness of it... It is so much cleaner when you are circumcised! Thinking of having to pull back foreskin every shower and what can collect in there just grosses me out.
