In reply to the discussion: I'm almost 62 years of age and I LIKE my circumcision... [View all]Tsiyu
(18,186 posts)105. yeah, that's a stretch, huh?
I won't talk about my five sons' peni, as they are grown men and are due privacy, but I never thought I'd hear someone say something so stupid as "people won't circumcise their kids over fear of being thought a Jew."
The men I've been with have all been cut, and only one was Jewish.
I never heard a single kid in school or any time as I got older claim uncut was an anti-Semitic statement by parents. And that was in the Deep South.
Never, ever heard that because most males are circumcised these days, religious parents or no.
I suspect the poster is harkening back to an earlier time when circumcision was not so widely performed.

My circumcision is frankly a bit stand-offish. We really aren't on speaking terms.

I have to admit I thought your OP was silly at first. But it really isn't. It's a good point...

If there were valid health reasons for tattoos and piercings that analogy might make sense. n/t

Not all cops are circumcised, so stop hating on all cops. And they all don't eat at

When you're 62 years old an uncircumcised dick looks like an old apple in an overgrown ditch.

And just HOW many 62 yr old dicks look like a breathtakingly beautiful Santorini Sunset, cut or no?

Oh, that is sad and gross at the same time. Not all of my family's men are Jewish

Like your other thread, this went over some heads...not just the cut ones.

I'll presume to tell you what it's about because I get the sense I have a clearer idea than you do.
