Should male babies get circumcised

Answer 1

Never, it is his penis, not mine. If he wants it done when he is adult he can, but if he is sensible he won't. It is done to damage the pleasures of sexual activity, Jews, Muslims, and the 19th century doctors who started it all admitted that.

Not only is it very bad for the boy, and the man he will become, it is also illegal in the USA and the UK! (Many other countries as well) Check out the legislation regarding inflicting deliberate injury on another person. Look at the UK Offences against the person Act of 1861, and there is similar protection for children in the USA. But the authorities lack the guts to prosecute the perpetrators unless the child is a girl, because there are too many Jewish lawyers and judges, and politicians who are afraid to lose support in elections.

Psychological Effects of Circumcision StudiedAn article titled "The Psychological Impact of Circumcision" reports that circumcision results in behavioral changes in infants and long-term unrecognized psychological effects on men. The piece reviews the medical literature on infants' responses to circumcision and concludes, "there is strong evidence that circumcision is overwhelmingly painful and traumatic." The article notes that infants exhibit behavioral changes after circumcision, and some men have strong feelings of anger, shame, distrust, and grief about having been circumcised. In addition, circumcision has been shown to disrupt the mother-infant bond, and some mothers report significant distress after allowing their son to be circumcised. Psychological factors perpetuate circumcision. According to the author, "defending circumcision requires minimizing or dismissing the harm and producing overstated medical claims about protection from future harm. The ongoing denial requires the acceptance of false beliefs and misunderstanding of facts. These psychological factors affect professionals, members of religious groups, and parents involved in the practice."

Expressions from circumcised men are generally lacking because most circumcised men do not understand what circumcision is, emotional repression keeps feelings from awareness, or men may be aware of these feelings but afraid of disclosure.

Answer 2

No major medical body recommends the routine circumcision of infants or boys. Circumcision generally should not be performed unless there is a medical reason making it necessary. Circumcision has risks of adverse events including pain, prolonged bleeding, infection, complications of sedation or anesthesia, and surgical error resulting in damage to the penis. Every year in the United States, there are some deaths following infant circumcision, most of which result from infection.

Complications are also common after circumcision if the remaining skin grows to fuse with the head of the penis. This disfigures the penis head and makes further surgery on the penis necessary. Circumcision has also been shown to reduce the sensitivity of the penis, making sex less pleasurable once your son is an adult. For these reasons most physicians recommend against circumcision. An uncircumcised penis requires no care until the boy can retract the foreskin, usually sometime between age 3 and puberty. He should simply wash the head of the penis with soap and water during his regular bath or shower just like any other part of the body. If you wish to have your newborn circumcised without anesthesia, it will cost $400-$500 (U.S. dollars). Circumcision is not covered by health insurance as it is an elective procedure. Infant circumcision is not covered by national health care in places like the United Kingdom and Canada. Circumcision of children will be more expensive since general anesthesia must be used since the boy will not stay still during the procedure while the surgeon is performing the circumcision.

Circumcision is far less common now in the United States than it once was. During the 1970s and 1980, around 80% of male infants were circumcised in the United States. A study conducted in the United States from 2006-2008 found that circumcision rates had fallen to below 40% in most of the United States. In the western United States, fewer than 25% of infant males were circumcised in 2006-2008.

Answer 3

THE ANSWER IS NO,I am an uncircumcised man, trough all my life i have seen a lot of people with circumcised penis, and they don't agree with that.

Penises with circumcision lose almost all the sense in that spot.

the foreskin is there for a reason just like the Clitoral hood, is there to protect the penis glans.

To circumcise a penis is like to cut the clitoris in women, because you are removing all the sense in that part.

Is better not to circumcise your baby, you will make his sexual life a nightmare let the penis intact, it wont make any trouble

lot of women say that the uncircumcised penis are sexy, not like the "cuted ones" or "incomplete ones".

Answer 4

No it is not important, as a matter of fact it is harmful

Circumcision is an OPTION, but it is important in some religions.

Answer 5

The circumcision rate in the US is finally down to below 40%, and some estimate it to be about 33%. There is a reason that health plans DO NOT cover it; it is medically unnecessary. Do some research. Parents do have a choice here. Unfortunately, the boy whose penis is at risk has no choice whatsoever. See links for more information.

Answer 6

Circumcision is usually inflicted on infants and children that have no say in the decision regarding this, the mutilation of their penis. If it was left to adults to ponder and then act upon on their own penis the custom would soon disapear.
