Love Your Penis

[kong1971]

I'm not going to quote a large article here or belabor the point unnecessarily. I'm just a little concerned about the anti-circ movement being demonized. The stance of the pro-circ crowd seems to be that "Intactivists" should keep it down and not make anybody feel bad about their penises, that ignorance is preferable to a bruised ego.

My personal belief is that circumcision is an act of genital mutilation. I realize that not all people agree with me on that, but I am sure that most would concede that the very act of cutting off a peice of someone's penis must cause some damage. Common sense also tells us that accidents happen, and that not every circumcision is perfectly executed, and there exists in medical literature terms for some of the more easily recognizable circumcision errors: webbed scrotum, trapped penis, etc.

Regardless, I know that hearing about the "horrors of circumcision" can hurt a male's perception of his body, so I am going to try to be more positive about the benefits of FR and less strident about the evils of circumcision. I don't want anyone to hate their body, and if I have caused anyone to feel that way because of my passionate beliefs, I apologize. I do not want anyone to hate their penis. I don't hate mine. I only want to educate men about circumcision and its possible negative side-effects and the benefits of restoration. Love your penises, guys, regardless of its cut/uncut status. It is a beautiful, powerful and sexy thing. If you feel like you have been damaged by circumcision or would like to enhance the quality of your sex life, I will be happy to share my knowledge of skin expansion techniques and my own personal experiences restoring.

There is a very dark side to circumcision, but maybe we uncut advocates should quit dwelling in the dark, shaking our fists, quite so much.

From now on, my motto shall be "Make it Better", not "Fix It!"

Kong, I have read through some of your posts, as well as the "exchange of thoughts" you and Swank have shared. I have to say that you were coming on strong with the overflow of negative content at some point, so I am pleasantly surprised to see you take this new, more positive direction in your quest of informing and educating people.
I also know what it's like to believe in something with fervent passion, take a soapbox stand and have your words fall on deaf ears (this is a PE, not an FR forum, after all, so it's a bit of an uphill battle to actually make people listen), thus it must not be easy for you as the only true FR enthusiast on the boards.
I must say that I agree with you 100% on circumcision being a total waste, a relic from the dark ages, and most importantly, genital mutilation. I can't say how glad I am to have been born in a country where it isn't commonplace to perform this atrocious act upon male infants.

Anyway, I can't really chip in with anything other than a few words of support for a cause that I believe is very worthy. Just so that you know, you have my thumbs up in continuing the mission. :)

Thanks! I am going to try to turn over a new leaf and be more positive, but I can't change my basic beliefs or personality. Basically, if you don't like me, you're never going to like me, regardless.
