Poll question: Are you circumcised?
Obviously this is a questions for the guys. We are talking about MALE circumcision.

1. I'm Jewish, so
We brought in a specialist for this one. A little off the top and that was that.

An uncircumsized penis looks like something that should be growing out of the ground.

It may look kinda funny when it's, uh....bored....but, when he gets going he's a sharp looking guy.

16. I beg your pardon?
"An uncircumsized penis looks like something that should be growing out of the ground."

Indeed? :eyes:

28. What?
Uh, it's in its NATURAL state, thank you! Growing out of the ground indeed!

I was born in Europe, and not of a religion that mandates circumcision, so draw your own conclusions.

4. I am very angry that circumcision was 'required' when my son was born
I would much rather leave it up to him....he had no choice...and I feel horrible about it.

6. Thankfully, I'm not...
But if the fundies had their way, they'd probably start requiring it.

8. excuse me??
You really need to clarify that statement.
Otherwise, I'm thinking the Jew crew here on DU will get a little upset with you.

13. your implication...
Was that only fundies circumcise their male children (read: mutilate). So... you are impying that Jews are either fundies or barbarians.

THAT is what you need to clarify. I can only hope that you weren't impying that and were making some other point about fundies and circumcision. If you were making the implication it SOUNDED like you were making, then you might want to rethink that a bit.

15. I'm a woman...
Edited on Wed Nov-12-03 07:15 PM by GoddessOfGuinness
Thought it was obvious by my nickname...sorry.

Further clarification: The question was, "Are YOU circumcised?" and my answer was, "Thankfully, not." There ARE places where female circumcision is required, and it IS barbaric.

I feel better now.

14. No, I'm not.
Most Irish-born men are not circumcised. Circumcision is quite uncommon in Europe.

29. Scott is, but if we had a boy, we wouldn't.
It isn't required by our faith and I don't buy that it's healthier.

I get mad about moms and dads who send their newborns off to be cut without observing it. If you CHOOSE to have the end of your kid's dick cut off and don't watch it yourself, I lose respect for your decision.

30. I agree about that last part
however, I was there when my newborn was circumcised. This in my house and the house of my ancestors is a very, very big step for a young kid towards Islam. We celebrate it in the fashion any Bosnian-American Liberal Muslim would: We drank the night away :)
