He's not circumcised
It occurs to me that anyone who hasn't seen Fargo will think I've kicked Steve Buscemi's back doors in

It's more popular in America than it is here

I'm not sure I'd ever describe cutting off part of a child's cock as "popular"

well it is, because when they grow up it's all pretty and clean

I had mine done when I was about 5 or 6.

Does the name Albert Fish mean nothing to you at all?

( Monty Boyce, My cheese game is strong, Thu 23 Jun 2011, 16:44, Reply)

nothing
but living in america it's become a bit of a taboo since most men are
I don't think I've ever seen one uncircumcised

are they really?
how odd. It's not like they're all secretly Jewish.

yes, really

( Lisette von Falcon, Thu 23 Jun 2011, 16:42, Reply)

They used to do it for health and hygiene reasons, laughably.
It used to be standard practice at birth. Don't know if it still is.

I think they ask if you don't want it

( Lisette von Falcon, Thu 23 Jun 2011, 16:44, Reply)

They ask the baby?

yeah, I reckon they just choose for them since babies are crying mostly after they're born

But without it where would I keep my loose change?

( Naked Ape call me Caitlyn, Thu 23 Jun 2011, 16:47, Reply)

do they remove eyelids for the same reason, then?

( the mighty badger Aphrodite, on a bar stool, by your side, Thu 23 Jun 2011, 16:51, Reply)

I know, mental, isn't it.

( Kroney, Thu 23 Jun 2011, 16:52, Reply)

why is it mental?
I'm genuinely curious, I know nowt about why it's done.
I just think it's makes a man's penis look very nice.
( Lisette von Falcon, Thu 23 Jun 2011, 16:55, Reply)

Because the foreskin evolved for health and hygiene reasons.
That is, in fact, it's primary purpose i.e. protecting the incredibly sensitive glans. When it's cut off, the glans has to then callous in order to protect itself, which robs the man of a great deal of sensitivity.

It's like cutting off the clitoral hood at birth.

so you lot blow a lot faster than american men?

( Lisette von Falcon, Thu 23 Jun 2011, 17:02, Reply)

Yes, that's precisely what you should be taking from that post.

( Kroney, Thu 23 Jun 2011, 17:03, Reply)

Removal of the foreskin helps prevent spread of HIV
as it's where the virus hangs out after initial infection, I believe. Or at least, transmission of HIV in circumcised men is lower than in a control group of equal risk men.

Also, personally, I think it looks nicer. And it's certainly been the case - not that I have slept with enough people to say that this is statistical certainty - that circumcised men don't come as quickly.

That bit where Marge is interviewing the two girls in the bar?
Where the famous "he was kinda funny-lookin'" bit came from?

Marge says to one of them "Can you tell me anything else about him?" and she replies "He wasn't circumcised!"

I'm into film.
