My kid won't have an anteater dick, that's for sure. |
Should cut off the tactile pads of their fingers too...

| quote: | | The outside of the foreskin is a continuation of the skin on the shaft of the penis, but the inner foreskin is a mucous membrane like the inside of the eyelid or the mouth. The mucocutaneous zone occurs where the outer and inner foreskin meet. Like the eyelid, the foreskin is free to move after it separates from the glans, usually by puberty. Smooth muscle fibres keep it close to the glans but make it highly elastic.[1] The foreskin is attached to the glans with a frenulum, which helps return the foreskin over the glans. At the end of foreskin, there is a band of tissue called the ridged band, which, according to one study, is rich in nerve endings called Meissner's corpuscles.[2] According to a study by Sorrells et al., the five most sensitive areas of the penis are on the foreskin.[3] |
| quote: | | Taylor et al. described the foreskin in detail, documenting a ridged band of mucosal tissue. They stated "This ridged band contains more Meissner's corpuscles than does the smooth mucosa and exhibits features of specialized sensory mucosa."[10] In 1999, Cold and Taylor stated "The prepuce is primary, erogenous tissue necessary for normal sexual function."[2] Boyle et al., state that "The complex innervation of the foreskin and frenulum has been well-documented, and the genitally intact male has thousands of fine touch receptors and other highly erogenous nerve endings—many of which are lost to circumcision, with an inevitable reduction in sexual sensation experienced by circumcised males."[11] The AAP noted that the work of Taylor et al. "suggests that there may be a concentration of specialized sensory cells in specific ridged areas of the foreskin."[12] Moses and Bailey (1998), describe the evidence of sensory function as "indirect," and state that, "aside from anecdotal reports, it has not been demonstrated that this is associated with increased male sexual pleasure."[13] The World Health Organisation states that there is little evidence for diminished sexual function, adding that studies have been inconsistent.[14] Fink et al. reported "[a]lthough many have speculated about the effect of a foreskin on sexual function, the current state of knowledge is based on anecdote rather than scientific evidence."[15] Masood et al. state that "[c]urrently no consensus exists about the role of the foreskin or the effect circumcision has on penile sensitivity and overall sexual satisfaction."[16] Schoen states that "[a]necdotally, some have claimed that the foreskin is important for normal sexual activity and improves sexual sensitivity. Objective published studies over the past decade have shown no substantial difference in sexual function between circumcised and uncircumcised men."[17] The term 'gliding action' is used in some papers to describe the way the foreskin moves during sexual intercourse. This mechanism was described by Lakshamanan & Prakash in 1980, stating that "[t]he outer layer of the prepuce in common with the skin of the shaft of the penis glides freely in a to and fro fashion..."[18] Several opponents of circumcision have argued that the gliding movement of the foreskin is important during sexual intercourse.[19] Warren & Bigelow claim that gliding action would help to reduce vaginal dryness and that restoration of the gliding action is an important advantage of foreskin restoration.[20] O'Hara describes the gliding action, stating that it reduces friction during sexual intercourse, and suggesting that it adds "immeasurably to the comfort and pleasure of both parties".[21] Taylor suggests that the gliding action, where it occurs, may stimulate the nerves of the ridged band[22], and speculates that the stretching of the frenulum by the rearward gliding action during penetration triggers ejaculation.[23] Taves used a single subject to test the actual force required to penetrate a measuring apparatus. When the foreskin was retracted, a more than tenfold increase in force was needed.[24] He argued that this confirms the belief of Morgan (1967) that the foreskin makes sexual penetration easier during sexual intercourse.[25] Whiddon (1953) and Foley (1966) also believed that the presence of the foreskin made sexual penetration easier.[26][27] |

"The 'point' of a circumcision is not to desensitize the penis."

Why desensitise it though? Leave it as it is, we've evolved it for a reason! |

Yeah because it will make a real difference to your life if he has his knob cut. |

Nah, that's a bad argument. |

Not a valid argument. There's no reason to want to touch things longer when you just can anyways. Tactile pads or no.
Less sensitivity and lasting longer means that you are pleasing the woman longer, also you get to enjoy sex longer.

No, but how many cases of post-infancy circumcision have you heard of? I can guarantee it has nothing to do with thinking being uncut is better, it's them not wanting people to cut on their junk.
I know, I know, if you don't want it when you're older, why would you want it when you're an infant? Because you won't remember it.
Also, the rape argument is stupid. Because one is rape, the other is removing skin from the penis. |

I don't know about you guys, but I don't have to cut skin off of my dick to please my girl. :o
If you have to cut skin off of your dick to last longer, you're a premature ejaculator and there are ways to cure it other than circumcision. ;) |
