Threads like this are sad. Girls encouraging gential mutilation.
Listen bitches. Guys are idiots. They are obsessed with their penises. They will do whatever they think girls want. So go do some research, and excercise some compassion/empathy, before throwing in your support for cutting off body parts.
It's not like getting a haircut or cutting your nails. It's nerves and flesh. It protects the head when not having sex (so it doesnt get rubbed raw on clothes, roughening/hardnening the tip), and provides stimulation (half the penises nerves are in the foreskin). Would you like someone to cut off all the excess tissue around your vagina because you can't be trusted to 'keep yourself clean'?
Circumcision started for one reason: to decrease sensitivity in an attempt to discourage masturbation, because 'god' considers sexuality to be 'unclean'. Of course, guys can still function without it.. like a man who is blind in one eye can still read.
Guys don't want to feel like victims. They don't want to face the reality that, when they were helpless babies, the people who were supposed to protect them instead mutilated them. It's too disturbing to even think about. So they invent justifications. It's a normal human reaction to abuse. But it becomes a cruel cycle, with men wanting their sons to look like their fathers.
Like men who were molested, more often molest their own kids.
Like men who were smacked around, more often smack around their own kids.
To break the cycle, it usually requires others to intervene. To say 'STOP!'.
btw - when erect/upright, the foreskin retracts, and most girls could not tell the difference.
unless the circumcision went wrong (very common) in which case men get scarring, or penises than turn at wierd angles, or other deformities than can make it difficult to function at all. In action, circumcised men miss out on the 'gliding' motion that provides additional pleasure.
