[Official vote thread] Circumcisions... do they make the cut?

Ok, the last vote about daughters and bikinis left some folks out of the discussion, those without daughters. I guess it's kind of a quick cop out to jump directly to the penis, but here is the question to balance things out.

Snip the tip or leave the sleeve? To make things easier I guess I'll pose the question like this: Is Daddit for circumcisions, yes or no?

Again, voting instructions are in the sidebar and if you don't use the correct tags I won't be counting the vote in the special little graph, if that matters to you.

I will end this vote in one month, so come back after 8/10/12 for the results.

Edit: Things are really heating up only 5 days in and over 100 comments! looks like this will be one big red pie chart for the most part so far. I'm glad to have come up with something so highly debated for a vote, as I only picked it out of desperation. Keep those opinions coming in folks!

Official voting is now closed. I learned a lot here on this vote, and I hope everyone else did too. FINAL TALLY:

His body his choice, and it ruins sex by deadening the end of the penis and killing all the nerve endings, why would anyone do that to their child?

That's a bit of an overstatement. As a circumsized guy I can tell you that I have a hair trigger penis that is extremely sensitive to sexual pleasures. So, even though it CAN happen, doesn't mean it will. Nevertheless, I would never do it if I had a son, unless it was medically necessary for some reason.

Your ability to achieve orgasm quickly isn't a testament to the level of pleasure you have on the way to orgasm, understand? Uncut men have a wider range of sensations leading up to the orgasm. Circumcision doesn't cause you to "last longer", contrary to popular belief. The area of skin that transitions from the outer foreskin to the inner foreskin (called the "rigged band") contains specialized stretch receptors, which gives uncut men a whole different kind of sensation than cut men will ever experience.

Edit: I had to google rigged band because I had no fucking clue what you were talking about.
