The whole 'better health' issue is a load of cobblers. A huge percentage of men in the U.K are not circumcised and that is what nature has given us so you work with that and don't alter it until you feel that it IS an issue.

STD percentages have not really used this argument as a case for or against cleanliness at least not over here.

An uncut penis does look more attractive visually yet a lot of sensitivity seems to be lost when uncut and may lead to desensitisation of the glans.

Having foreskin does lend itself very well to friction and extra stimulus regarding opposite forces when having intercourse and even the most lazy of the male species WILL keep himself clean both for physical and aesthetic reasons.

Circumcision has it's benefits but for frig's sake, let your kid's decide what they want to do with their bodies.

Enforcing any sort of will upon children is a detriment 9 times out of ten and performing surgery unnecessarily to appeal to your own sensibility is selfish and ignorant.

By all means support your children and guide them in future choices but to take away a body part (no matter how insignificant at the time) in order to appease a religion or doctrine is going against everything that a parent should aspire to.
