Do not do it, what the above poster says about benefits is a myth, you are more likely to get an UTI if you have your foreskin removed as under the foreskin the body produces antibodies and white blood cells to prevent infection,where as without the foreskin the entrance to the urethra is completely dry and easy for bacteria to enter. Hygiene reasons is rubbish as well as when you circumsize a boy you have to clean under the small remaining piece of skin, if you leave the foreksin in place there is nothing to clean under as the foreksin is fused to the ***** until the early onset of puberty. Removing the foreksin lowers the levels of testosterone, which means erection and fertility problems are more likely in those lacking in the genitals.
There is not one reason why circumsision is ever beneficial unless there is actually something wrong with the childs foreskin.
It offers no protection against STD's what so ever, it does not protect women against STD's as they are passed on in the semen not from the general head area of the *****, STD's such as chlamydia are more easily caught in a circumsized male, then a male with a full *****.. The foreskin makes up half of the skin of the *****, hence why cut men are often smaller and can suffer very painful erections
They tie your baby down and literally rip their foreksin off with no anesthetic.
I'm naturally half circumsised as my foreskin didn't develop properly, I constantly have UTI's which have damaged by bladder and kidney, there is virtually no sensation until you get to the area where I do have foreskin, because it is half and is much like what you get with a circumsision it is very hard to clean and impossible to be perfectly clean because the foreskin cannot expell any dirt, like it would if it was fully formed. Because it means the end of the ***** is skin instead of membrane you have to be very careful otherwise you get urine burn.
Yet my father, my brother, my husband and our sons have never had any of these problems and they all have foreskins!
