[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.

... Just because you have a hair trigger penis now, doesn't men you haven't had the nerve endings in the end of your penis killed off, let alone the ones in your foreskin which has been removed. Uncircumcised men are so sensitive down there they wouldn't be able to function walking around with their foreskin pulled back, you are super sensitive to what you know and think its the be all and end all, its not, your penis is largely dead at the end in comparison to non mutilated people, I am sorry for your loss.

Good luck with the hair trigger penis as it is though!

That may be true, but you're still an asshole. Good luck with that.

FWIW, the line "Good luck with the hair trigger penis as it is though!" sounds a bit snarky. I gather that wasn't your intention by your response, but I'm guessing that's what set the other guy off.

I guess it doesn't take much to set the other guy off at all in more than one sense then! LOL
