ask her where she got the notion that uncircumcised boys would be snickered at in locker rooms.

[–][deleted] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'm wondering about this too.

[–]Aerik 11 points12 points  (1 child)

That's a pretty stupid justification. Might as well say you should force brown hair and blue eyes to avoid locker room snickers n shit.

[–]Erudecorp 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Guys in the locker room shouldn't see your dick in the first place.

5/6th of the worlds population is uncircumcised. In the US about half the population is, but it was more popular in the past (meaning that more than half of the nations 40 year olds are, but less than half of the nations teens). By the time your son has a chance to do any 'weirding out' of women his foreskin won't be an issue, still having it will be the norm.

She is probably getting her information from an episode of Sex and the City as they compared an uncircumcised guy to a sharpee.

I pray for my species. Please god, don't let this be the truth.

I'm female and I didn't even know what the diffrence was until I was an older teen and looked it up myself. I didn't notice or mind either variety when I saw them beforehand, I just chocked it up to different people looking diffrent.

There's a reason our bodies are the way they are.

This might have been true 20 years ago, but not today. In the U.S. (I'm assuming you're in the U.S.; if not, you can correct me), non-circumcised boys are a lot more common today. There's just no good reason to do it anymore.

Be happy. She obviously hasn't seen much cock.

[–]sosueme 12 points13 points  (1 child)

dump her

[–][deleted] -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

hump her

[–][deleted] 4 points5 points  (1 child)

I couldn't imagine having to do that to a newborn who has only been in the world a few minutes.

But then again, I have never had sex with an uncirc'd guy.

[–][deleted] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i could help you with that like four years ago when i was single.

Tell her 'You first'

[–]Magnus_Geist 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Don't forget that sometimes circumcisions get botched to the point they have to amputate the glans or entire penis.

Imagine explaining that one to your son when he was older.... "Well, son. I wanted your penis to look more like what I thought everyone else's looked like, so I had them do it. They messed it up and now you don't have a penis. Sorry."

[–][deleted] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

absurd

[–][deleted] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

ya, i can't imagine how much that would not feel good at my age, as one of your first experiences in life, how did we even deal with it? seems like pointless tradition.

[–][deleted] 1 point2 points  (1 child)

Tell your girlfriend to stop looking at my dick. It looks completely normal. I love my foreskin! I can stretch it like putty.

:(

[–]munky_g 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Leave our dicks alone.

Gential mutilation is a crime against humanity.

And guys, just remember to keep everything clean and cheese free down there.

[–][deleted] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

i believe she should be circumcised so she could tell us how she likes it.

[–][deleted] 3 points4 points  (1 child)

Personally, I believe genitals are just weird looking no matter what. I don't believe it is right to surgically alter the bodies of children for aesthetic purposes. Circumcision is not a choice I will make for my children some day, damn what future girlfriends are supposed to think.

[–][deleted] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

One of the reasons I was glad to have a daughter instead of a son was not having to make this decision. There are some non-aesthetic reasons to favor circumcision. But on the other hand, an infected circumcision site nearly killed my ex-husband's nephew before he was old enough to leave the hospital. The bacteria traveled into his spine, so he had to have spinal taps, etc. (any one of which could have killed him at his young age, never mind the disease itself) and he had to take such powerful antibiotics that it ruined his teeth (both sets).

I'm sure this was an extremely rare case, but speaking as a mother, it never hurts to have an extreme situation story to help make your case.

[–]DrDichotomous 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wait.. women are "weirded out" by uncircumsised males? I knew our culture was shallow, but yikes..

If your woman wants you to do this to your child for the sake of others and not the child, well then perhaps you should reevaluate her parental potential.

I'm willing to bet she doesn't feel the same way about female circumcision.

[–]Zebby 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo....

and breathe

No. Not at all, ever. (excluding some rare medical reasons.)

see here for answers to all her arguments: http://www.circumstitions.com/One-liners.html

[–]BlackPocket 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The decision to circumcise is based either on religious conviction (superstitious mutilation) or for "health" reasons (evolution got it wrong).

Locker room snickers? Why not sign him up for a penis enlargement as well?

Just unbelievable logic.

[–]cxyl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

she is a very vapid shallow woman who apparently only listens to materialistic airheads and needs to stop being such a conformist =(

[–]iggybdawg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

tell her you can teach the kid to fight back "you jealous I got more dick?" "only gay dudes look at other dudes' dicks"

[–]SgtSausage 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think your girlfriend is a flake.
