tsionlyi, I think you're being entirely overdramatic. I've seen babies cry themselves into a state of near shock because their bottle was taken away.
I have been cut, my penis works FINE. I can beat off in about 30 seconds if I'm excited.
I would probably opt not to have my sons get cut, but if the (future)wife wants it, then she can pay to have it done.
I think that either way, the boy's going to do just fine in life, so at worst, its an unnecessary surgery that wastes $400....it probably wont matter much to the boy either way....trust me, somehow I know that I am not bothered by the fact that I was circumcised.
Here are some things that DID bother me from my childhood:
having my right thumb nearly cut off by a closing door.
having that same thumb (with no thumbnail after the surgery to re-attatch the tip of my thumb) being stepped on by my 300lb step-father.
and once, I nailed my face on the concrete.
while riding my bicycle barefoot, I wiped out pretty hard and got some good road rash.
trying to do a backflip into a pool and scraping my back along the pool edge.
My list of childhood suffering goes on....and I can say...without question that the one that bothers me the least is that I was circumcised.
