An intact man recalls the first time he saw a circumcised penis. As a young boy he saw another boy in the bathroom and remembers seeing his penis and wondering “what the hell happened to you???”
That men have to live with a mangled penis for the rest of their lives whether they wanted it or not is such a sad thought… In retrospect, what a sad, sad memory…

Who am I? Why am I so against circumcision? →
Joseph describes what drives him to be an intactivist. He is a citizen concerned for the rights of minors and the individual. He is against circumcision, specifically the circumcision of healthy, non-consenting minors because it is wrong on so many different levels.

Why does the foreskin become more important as men... →
Direct Sexual Nerve stimulation and its response becomes more important for men as they age because sex hormone levels of testosterone gradually diminish and vascular circulation becomes less efficient. Robbing men of 20,000 pleasure nerves and anatomical pleasure structures like the frenar band and frenulum deprives them of much needed nerve stimulation as they age.
I found that as I got...

Circumcision undermines child’s human rights →
Various dictionaries list the phrase “genital mutilation” as the act of cutting all or some of the genital organs. “Mutilation” is an accurate way to describe infant circumcision. That there are possibly some benefits to this surgical procedure does not justify the act. Elective surgery — especially ones dealing with the genitals — should not be done without consent from...

uncutting:
In the year 2009, 32.5% of American newborn males were circumcised shortly after birth. Their foreskins were forcibly removed, as were ten of thousands of nerves endings, and the glans’ natural protection. Many of these boys were not even given adequate anesthesia, and a few experienced severe immediate complications. A few died from these complications.
One thing every one of these...

Birth As We Know It: Circumcision
An excerpt from the documentary, Birth As We Know It. The narrator describes the three functions of the foreskin: 1) to protect the internal mucosal tissue of the inner foreskin and the glans, 2) to provide sensory pleasure because the foreskin has erogenous tissue, and 3) to provide the gliding action during sex, which aids both the man and woman during...

Circumcision Just After a NICU →
Many babies are circumcised while they are in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) or when they are released from the NICU. Joseph4GI questions, rightfully so, why any parent would think it OK to have elective, non-therapeutic surgery on a frail infant that had to be in the NICU. Worse yet, doctors are willing, and often suggest, such circumcision on sick and frail baby boys.

Joseph4GI stands for "Joseph for Genital... →
Avid intactivist Joseph started a blog. Joseph4GI lays his cards on the table as he tells everyone that he is against the forced circumcision of healthy, non-consenting minors. I make no exception for “religion” or “culture.” The only time that a child should undergo surgery is when there is actual medical or clinical indication, and all other methods of treatment have...

A common statement by a clueless person who was circumcised at birth:
I don’t think infant circumcision is the crime that some people make it out to be. My penis is fully functioning. I have wonderful sex and orgasms. There is nothing wrong with my penis.
Sorry buddy, but if you were circumcised at birth, you have no idea what you are missing. A man circumcised at birth has no basis of...
she-who-rules-the-roost-deactiv asked: Just wanted to let you know there is hope. My best friend circumcised her first 2 sons back in the 80's. She was young and didn't know any better. She went on to have 8 more children, 3 being boys and did not circumcise them. She now also has 3 grandsons from the 2 sons who ARE circumcised. None of her grandsons are circumcised because she was adamant that they learn from her mistake. It...

The Case Against Infant Circumcision: There is much evidence that infant circumcision is a traumatic and painful experience causing loss and deprivation, yet we find some or even many males that have been circumcised endlessly and obsessively promoting infant circumcision. Why is this so? One explanation may be a form of Stokholm Syndrome.
