The thing about circumcision, however, is that you'll find a whole army of doctors willing to do it in a heartbeat.
And at least two more armies who are willing to charge for it without doing it. When my son was born we were charged for three circumcisions. He is still uncut.

For a number of reasons, in Canada and the U.S. (and to a lesser extent in Australia, N.Z., and other countries - overall predominately Protestant-Christian, white, Anglo-European nations) circumcision was regularly preformed on children from the 1950's to the 1970's. There is a gradual movement among many cut guys to go back to what they could have had. While Baopi's over-hang might be considered excessive by some, many would find it very attractive. Nevertheless, having said that, if Baopi's quite convinced he wants it cut back, a plastic surgeon (or, as was suggested before, perhaps a urologist) should be consulted.

I was relieved of my foreskin when I was 5 months old, to 'cure' a UTI. It did that, but now I wish I still had my push/pull. My advice is to leave it where it is, washing the penis takes a lot less time than brushing the teeth, but nobody advocates removal of the teeth to save on brushes and paste.
My son still has his, I'm sure he gets lots of pleasure from it.
Circumcision: doctors make money from it, thoughtless, ignorant, parents request it, and babies can't prevent it.

That's the whole truth and nothing but the truth!
. . . from the 1950's to the 1970's.In the USA it started much earlier.

Those who were involuntarily circumcized as babies, including for pseudo-religious reasons, should sue the doctors concerned, and their parents if it was done with their knowledge or consent, and any ministers of religion involved, to their last nickels. BTW it is now illegal to do it involuntarily in Canada to babies, as the result of the David Reimer case in Winnipeg, Manitoba.

Thanks Moreschi
It's nice to know there are loving mothers out there who don't believe in ritual genital mutilation in newborns, without thinking of the babies' wellfare.
I consider myself very fortunate to be born into a country where circumcision is extremely rare, and thank the heavens I'm still intact.
It never fails to amaze me that - in a country so proud of the freedom they offer their citizens - and yet somehow find such barbaric way to restrict the freedom of those too meek to be able to speak out for themselves.
I dream of a day when circumcision for males here in the West is as rare - and criminal - as circumcision in female teenagers.

At least things have changed in the U.S.A. Circumcision isn't as common as it was before. When I was a kid, ALL boys were circumcised (In the south, at least). In all time I was in school, I only saw one boy who wasn't, and he had immigrated from Eastern Europe. I wish I hadn't been circumcised, but wouldn't have as a kid. I would have been a freak to all the other boys. Hell, I even heard of girls that wouldn't go to bed with an uncircumcised boy.

Thank you very much for creating this website. The family doctor convinced my mother that it would cure a UTI. She did not want it done, and she held out for several months, before eventually agreeing. I did get better, but I would have done so anyway. I vowed that my son would keep his foreskin, and he has.
