Sixth Dynasty (2345–2181 BC) tomb artwork in Egypt is thought to be the oldest documentary evidence of circumcision, the most ancient depiction being a bas-relief from the necropolis at Saqqara (ca. 2400 BC) with the inscription reading "Hold him and do not allow him to faint". In the oldest written account, by an Egyptian named Uha, in the 23rd century BC, he describes a mass circumcision and boasts of his ability to stoically endure the pain: "When I was circumcised, together with one hundred and twenty men...there was none thereof who hit out, there was none thereof who was hit, and there was none thereof who scratched and there was none thereof who was scratched."
I was one of those that freaked out and actually ran away when I first saw one.
I compare it to an animals' penis. I could never be with a man that wasn't circumcised, and no I'm not Jewish. I am completely grossed out by the whole "d#*$ cheese" thing, yuck. Cleaner is ALWAYS better.
As a woman, I thank God for circumcision.

Jesus Christ.. it's not a double standard. Female circumcision removes an entire organ that has a function. Foreskin is a useless part of an organ. I'm sure some of you enjoy smegma and your conehead play thing, but I'm glad my "barbaric" and "abusive" parents had me cut. The glans are a wonderful thing.

You are all being foolish, the kid is never going to complain to his parents, "why did you cut this nasty sleeve off my penis and make me like the rest of the boys in the locker room?"
You're absolutely correct, my kid would never complain like that because where I am from the majority of people are not routinely circumcised as it's recognised as what it is; barbarism.
In fact, in America, only 33% of boys still undergo circumcision[1], making your potential circumcised child a minority. So much for being like all the others in the locker room.
Go out and as some females whether they prefer men cut or uncut.
I'd place a bet on the majority not being able to tell the difference whilst the penis is erect.edit on 14-6-2011 by Goathief because: (no reason given)

My best friend told me once, I wish I was cut. Lots of girls freak when they see it cause they have never seen one before. Some would still let him have intercourse but oral was out of the picture. I am cut I have never had that problem. He said he would get done now but it takes a little while to heal, I think he was just scared. That is how I made the decision to have my son cut.
Plus it reduces the risk of cancer, std transmition, infection and all that. When it is done to women it hurts the woman for the rest of her life. When done to a man he will never know until told there was once extra skin there.

OP, this in no way even compares to female mutilation. I guess you are unaware that when they do that to women, it is to remove all the pleasure from women, ALL FOREVER. You probably don't know this, because most men have no clue what arouses women.
Men on the other hand are still quite capable of experiencing pleasure. Circumcision is not performed on men to control them, it is however done to women for that reason, makes me ill...stupid backwards people.
I can't help thinking that these kinds of threads are created for the sole purpose of spreading propaganda against the Jews and Christians.

My present uncircumcised man arrived after I'd been with several circumcised men. I have had no relations with circumcised men since I met my current uncircumcised lover, but the difference between circd sex and uncircd sex is very obvious to me.
All my circumcised men seemed too anxious to reach their own orgasms and too caught up in getting their own pleasure. And they often left me unsatisfied, leaving me irritable, aggravated, and frustrated as hell.
Circumcised men are more rough and they tend to ‘pound away’ at me. With them, I seldom achieved orgasm.
During circumcised intercourse, it always felt like there were two sexual experiences going on—his and mine. It was never making love—it was only ‘F...ing.’ And most of the time our movements were out of sync. I was often left frustrated and feeling used—leaving me feeling blue.
My uncircumcised man is very tender, passionate, and loving. Sex is more relaxed, mellow, and gentle with him than it was with circumcised men.
My uncircd man takes more time. I could make love with him for hours (and sometimes do). He is softer and gentler than the circumcised ones were. During circumcised intercourse, my noises and utterings sounded painful because it was close to painful at times! With my uncircd lover, they are more cooing, purring, and sounds of contentment, in response to the pleasure I'm feeling.
My uncircumcised partner is more sensitive, but I tend to think it is because he has a natural penis—hence, he is more delicate—he is more in touch with his penis—and his penis is more in touch with his heart.
