I support circumcisioin rights.
http://www.sfgate.com/health/article/Federal-circumcision-guidelines-meet-with-5944107.php
In the new guidelines, the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention stopped short of recommending routine circumcisions. But the agency emphasized that the benefits outweigh the risks, recommended the procedure be covered by insurance, and suggested that males of all ages who are not circumcised should receive counseling about its potential health benefits.
In 2011, members of the anticutting movement known as intactivists pushed for a ballot measure in San Francisco that would have barred the procedure on any male 17 or younger. But a San Francisco Superior Court judge removed it from the ballot after Jewish organizations, the American Civil Liberties Union and San Francisco's Medical Society filed a lawsuit over the issue.
Tina Kimmel, who lives in Oakland, said she has already written to the CDC, warning the agency to not let itself be “manipulated into coming out on the wrong side of this historic issue.” ,” Kimmel wrote, “It is monstrous for (the) CDC to advise physicians to treat any US citizen as less than human. It is your job to protect us, not subject us to excrutiating, permanent bodily disfigurement — with no medical justification — just because we are (temporarily) in a weak state and you can overpower us.”

this thread should be a pole so we can collect some stats and maybe also delegate a map

Baby dicks are getting more liberal press than aborted babies

I disagree that circumcision should be covered by insurance. Premiums are high enough without having to cover cosmetic surgeries.

It's not just cosmetic, that's why it's recommended

They stopped short of recommending it, actually. There are some very minor health benefits, but it's a surgery performed for cosmetic reasons.

doctor now or zipper later

Adult circumcision is extremely painful, the minor health benefits are worth it in preventing that

San Francisco - land of intolerance.

the jewish practice of sucking the foreskin off of the baby dick is very uncivilized.

my favorite Dirty Jobs episode. Mike Rowe was like :Yuck:

Not at all surprised that ratm has anteater envy. Got him a crew neck against his will. Makes a lot of sense actually. Really explains some things.

I mean, do whatever you want, but a lot of the vitriol from passionate pro-anteater folks comes across as veiled jealousy, to me. Just cuz you born in the hood don't mean you stuck there. It's not just that it looks gross; it's that it is gross. No chick's gonna wanna go down on that flaming hot pocket of molten smegma. No one wants to play with a penis flytrap that chomps on lint, dead cells and sundry other particulate. Sometimes when I'm getting my main vein thrombosis on, I think about those poor bastards suffering from penis insufficiency. My advice? Don't get mad, get glans.

Exactly. It's actually an inherited Judaic practice that's become "mainstream", if you will. The medical literature has gone back and forth on the "benefits" of circumcision, and all proclaiming benefits have even noted that basic hygiene is really at the core of it all.

Obama will likely create a czar for this since it is a big subject in Europe. Maybe a Cleaner Wiener campaign wth Bill Clinton as spokeman.

When I was a kid, my dad played on a softball team. I guess one of the guys had accidentally said they wanted to circumcise their meal at McDonalds and all the guys were having a good laugh. I said I don't get it, one of the guys said well are you circumcised? I said no, they all laughed at my dad. Dad then corrected me and told them I was.

Yes, I have slept with many married women :fatty:

I'm not anti-circumcision. I just don't think insurance needs to cover cosmetic surgery.
