For context, I’m circumcised and expecting a son and my wife and I are torn about the circ. We’re American so from a cultural standpoint circumcision is the default choice. Thing is, there’s no real benefit besides practicing a religion we don’t believe in, and I’m uncomfortable about cutting the tip of my son’s dick off.
On the other side, I’ve met a guy who was bullied in high school so bad for it he got a circ as an adult. Apparently crazy painful recovery. I’ve also talked to women who are generally grossed out by uncircumcised men. I don’t want to make him feel like something’s wrong with him his whole life because I was uncomfortable with the idea.
From a moral standpoint I’m against it, but from a social and cultural standpoint I feel like I should do it? It’s a crappy situation. If there’s any uncircumcised American men who want to talk about their penis I’m all ears.
Edit: I really appreciate everyone’s responses I never expected to hear from so many people. With the decision hinging on social and cultural norms it’s been really helpful to be able to take the temperature like this. I obviously need to talk to my wife, but given the overwhelming support of dick hats I don’t thing we’re going to do it. Thanks, lemmings!
Wtf why. I only learnt americans are circumcized from online forums, keep your retarded habits to yourself guys
Unfortunately, this isn’t only Americans…
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prevalence_of_circumcision
TLDR: Religious extremism sucks
If I’m reading that correctly, it would be prevalence of people that are circumcised, not the current prevalence of it being done, right?
Edit: Also, all the yellow parts could literally have a zero or close to zero rate. Or just a minority Jewish population.
Its a Jewish, Islamic and American (due to puritanism) practice mostly. The rest of the world doesn’t really do it in large numbers.
Please don’t use that word, it’s a slur.
“American”?
😂😂
No, the r-word.
Retard?
