i'm fine with my weiner, thank you.

heres a very badly worded article about circumcision and its alleged cure of AIDS.

sorry, but the arguement presented in this article is so one sided. wow. people get paid to write this?

sounds like someone is scared of the convertible weiner...

Foreskin.T

Foreskin comma T?

ssh i think its modern art.

Yes, I'm Thomas Foreskin ... did someone call me?

It's like "ed", but 13373r.

Gods and Godesses bles you dear.... ~hugs~

or curse, either or

Whatever it looks liek when it is unveiled is fine with me. I like them both ways.

The arguments for getting it done are a little ridiculous. I did not have my son cut. No reason for it.

*had teh snip*
Not my choice, for medical reasons when I was five. Can't say it bothers me, but then again, I've never known any different.

I love my weiner just the way it is

I love the way mine is too. Cut.

*sigh* This keeps coming up on this issue. What about that article was one-sided or badly worded. There's an argument against it at the bottom. It at no point says that circumcision is a cure for AIDS. What on Earth is your problem here?

This is something that could drastically reduce AIDS in Africa, and peopel keep on arguing against it because they're against circumcision in general. Which is stupid. No one's saying you should circumcise your child. No one's saying you should get circumcised. All it's saying is that in a continent where AIDS is rampant and solutions aren't available, this is a simple procedure which could reduce the outbreak. Which is fucking necessary. Why aren't people applauding this and hoping it works out?

because there are better ways to prevent the spread of aids than cutting some kid's foreskin off?

seriously. education > surgery.

"Health officials said they were concerned that such demand ( for circumcisions) may increase the number of operations carried out by healers and witch-doctors, which could boost the risk of HIV infection rather than prevent it if they were not done correctly."

I thought this was a well thought out addition to the article

No shit. And that's awesome in the US and Europe. Guess what? I'm not for circumcision either, in those areas. People here can fucking use condoms. They distribute them in Planned Parenthoods. In Africa, you have countries denying the link between HIV and AIDS, including South Africa, which prefer to rely on their own solutions. This study was done in conjunction with South Africa. It is a solution that, if the findings are accurate, and if you read the article, you will note that they are still being tested, will reduce the number of infections in Africa. And it's a one time thing. Unlike condoms. Unlike anything else. We are distributing condoms in Africa, we have been for quite some time now, and we're trying to educate. There's not enough manpower, and there's not enough money. It's like trying to bail the goddamned Titanic.

This is a study of a measure that can be done one time and drastically reduce the number of transmissions. It's only being studied, and there's opposition on principle, apparently. I don't get it.

On SG, you can't say anything bad about Courtney Love, fake tits, or liberal politics, or you generally will get flamed in response.

However, if you post a defense of the Pope, circumcision, or conservative politics, you can expect general hostility to your posts.

So Courtney Love's fake tits and the pope walk into a bar...

I've never seen an uncircumsized penis in person. Though to my knowlege the only thing circucision cures is the American male's belief that he is not "normal".
