    I don’t. I think an uncircumcised dick looks gross. But I’m in favor of not opting kids into a choice they can’t unmake. I’m not having kids, so I haven’t researched the medical benefits either way.

    And it’s accurate to say that the GOP gives zero fucks about anything productive like protecting children. Party of fear and hate.

      There’s little medical benefit, really. Less chance of catching STDs and less chance of UTIs.

      It’s also the most sensitive part of the penis. Which is why it’s removed. Kellogg (the cereal baron), thought masturbation was gross and thought if he spread propaganda encouraging the medical establishment to remove it, boys would touch themselves less.

      Also, you think it looks gross because of his propaganda. An intact dick is no uglier than an intact pussy, really. Outside your conditioning, anyway. And cutting up babies because an oligarch didn’t want boys touching themselves is gross. And it does hurt children.

      Yet the GOP doesn’t give a shit because this isn’t about helping kids. But hurting trans people.
