Foreskin

What about the lil skin around the glans and the Routine Infant Circumcision (RIC) ?
And why am I talking about it? because I have the need to do so :P

Here are some intersting facts on the subject:

Good Doctors do not support the Ric, only if it is medically necessary.

Unfortenatelly only in the U.S. Doctors routinely circumcises infants.

Social custom rather than a necessary surgery, There is no actual study that prove any health benefits, while some academics acknowledges that might be some benefits.

For an Infant is a traumatic thing because there is a very low porcentage of infants that receive anesthesia because the risks it brings.

Studies show that male children neither know or care about the circumcision status of their father.

One study suggests that there is no sensitivity difference, circumcision removes the thousands of nerves, including the frenulum, which is the most sensitive part of the male body. Also, without the protection of the foreskin, the glans kernatises over the years to protect from abrasion, burying nerves under up to 10 layers of lightly callused skin. The foreskin's gliding mechanism during intercourse is lost upon circumcision.

Infants will not remember being circumcised, but several recent studies suggest that there is a high correlation between Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder and circumcision. Furthermore, even babies that appear to "sleep" through circumcision show elevated heart rate, blood pressure, difficulty breathing and bodily stress, indicating that the sleep-reaction may in-fact be shock, which can cause lasting effects on an infants body and mind.

Most intact men do NOT chose to get cut later; the circumcision rate among intact men is less than .5% percent in America. In other countries, it is even lower. Also, due to recent information about circumcision, there is a large movement of cut men seeking to restore their lost foreskin through non-surgical and surgical methods. There are no statistics on this underground movement, though the network contains several mailing lists each with nearly a thousand members, and a recent book about restoration sold over 20,000 copies. There are also currently several lawsuits from men who are upset at being circumcised without their consent as infants.

For a lot of men that look for a foreskin restoretion hold deep resentment toward their parents for allowing this assault on their bodies, and at the end this can only be called "genital mutilation".
I´m not against infant circunsition if it is done for a good medical reason, what I really mean with this is that all of us has the RIGHT to choose what we do with our bodies, hope one day we can all say, Noone has ever violate my personal rights, and make a this world a better place to live.
The religious and legal stuff are a whole different story, that is why I don´t make any mention about it.
Thanks to my parents for giving me that right to make my own desitions.

This painting is for all the gay guys that like nice uncut fellows, I painted it thinking of you guys :P
