A Little Snip Here, A Little Less Chance of STDs There

Circumcision

At the mere mention of the word, guys cringe. But that hasn’t stopped the debate on circumcision from raging. Does it decrease pleasure for him? Does she have a preference? Is it really a necessary to do that… down there…?

In 1999 newborn boys screamed in relief as the American Medical Association said no, it’s not really necessary to do that down there. Contrary to the belief that the trim was healthier and more hygienic, the AMA declared circumcision medically unnecessary.

However, a new study challenges the AMA on that point. Researchers found that male circumcision lowers guys’ risk of getting certain STDs. The risk for HPV is knocked down 35 percent, herpes 25 percent and AIDS a whopping 60 percent.

Banana Circumcision

That’s good news for circumcised guys and the girls who love them. Aesthetic benefits aside, if he’s less likely to get an STD, you’re less likely to catch one from him. Everyone wins.

(On a side note, I restrained from writing anything about circumcision being “a cut above,” opponents “getting snippy” or considering “anyway you slice it,” and for that I should be praised.)

    Circumcision has it’s origings in ancient, barbaric rituals and customs. It is unnecessary, and the routine circumcision of baby boys inpacts on their personal rights to have an intact body. No medical society in the civilized world endorses it, and most describe it as unnecessary. The consequences are numerous: reduced sensitivity (as much as 60%), scars, bridges, tags, caricose veins, malapposition, and the feeling of inferiority. Take the circumcision quiz here:

    and decide for yourself. Not only the physical harm, but also the psychological effects are excessive: low male self esteem; avoidance of intimacy in male-female relationships
    attitudes toward pain and stimulation; passivity; reduced empathy; antisocial behaviors – adult male violence, domestic violence, rape, child sexual abuse, suicide, and theft.
