Showing Original Post only (View all)Circumcision discussion [View all]
Since women don't have penises, are their opinions as valid (based on experience) as say, a man's opinions about vaginal health? 
And yes, circumcision is very often a health issue since non-circumcised penises face greater chance for ailments such as inflammatory dermatoses (balanitis), HIV and other STDs, not to mention social acceptability (from both men and women varying depending on your micro-culture). These are things MEN experience in their lives and, like issues relating to women's bodies, are best understood by men. 
P.S> This was locked in GD as flame bait... Is this flame bait?

        I always think it's interesting to hear a guy who's pro-circumcision....
