Dr Momma Peaceful Parenting: Lives Changed: A Willingness to Speak Up
A mother of three boys describes how she recently learned that she blindly had her sons circumcised for no reason. She has since apologized to her sons for having part of their sex organs removed at birth.

no circumcision: Why Does Circumcision Persist
Parents have been misinformed by the medical community about circumcision, and they now are repeating the mistakes of the past, ingrained by familiarity and tradition. Doctors get paid extra fees, and hospitals also get paid a facility fee for each circumcision. The average amount invoiced to insurance carriers is on average $1500 per circumcision. Also, circumcised infants typically have longer hospital stays which increases revenue. Also, under the law, hospitals automatically retain ownership of harvested infant foreskin tissue. Neonatal tissue has unique stem cells and growth factors which are valuable. Hospitals can then sell infant foreskin tissue to bio-tech and cosmetic companies for further profit.

The Daily Guggie Daly: Confessions of a Mom who Witnessed Circumcision
A mother watches her infant son be circumcised. Fortunately for the baby, he was anesthesized with a dorsal block and was spared much of the pain of the circumcision.

The Daily Guggie Daly: Confessions of a Mom who Circumcised 
A mother writes a letter to her son apologizing for having him circumcised shortly after he was born. She now realizes that infant circumcision is a mistake.

The Daily Guggie Daly: Catholics who Circumcised, Do not Despair
Circumcision is strongly condemned and opposed by the Catholic Church. Unfortunately, many American Catholics believe circumcision is either inconsequential to their faith or a necessary practice of their faith.

Daily Sundial: Would an uncircumcised man be a stop sign in the bedroom?
Many comments to the post asking this question confirm that an intact penis, that is, one that is not circumcised, is desirable in the bedroom. "No, uncircumcised penis can be very welcome sight." "Women who have had sex with circumcised and intact men prefer intact men 8 to 1. (O'Hara)" See Women overwhelmingly prefer sex with a man who has a foreskin.

My foreskin has magical powers

by Tally on February 17, 2011

table23 comedy does the Foreskin songtable 23 is a comedy troupe based out of the Tri-Cities, east of Vancouver, British Columbia.

table23 has a music video of their Foreskin song. The Foreskin song is a humorous take on a sensitive issue: the male genitalia. As table23 says, "Body Image is an important topic for young people. So why not sing a song about it?!" Canada stopped routine infant circumcision years ago, unlike the United States where most of the sexually active men are circumcised and have no idea of the value of the foreskin. The song shows the acceptance of foreskin among Canadians.

Vocalist Russ Brummer belts out, "My foreskin has magical powers" in a very convincing manner. The woman in the video looks suitably impressed by the power of his foreskin. Read more . . .

30 Month progress report for restoring my foreskin

by Tally on February 14, 2011

30 month progress report for restoring my foreskinTwo and a half years ago, I started out with tight erections. Before I started restoring my foreskin, my skin was so tight that my erections were rock hard. I felt like I could drive a nail with my penis it was so hard. I thought that was normal.

My skin was taut when I was erect. If my erection subsided even a little bit, I would lose the rock hardness. I felt less of a man with my penis not being hard as a rock. I remember watching porn and occasionally seeing the man apparently lose his erection. At least, I assumed this when I would see his penis bend and flex, even though it looked erect. Little did I know that a normal erection is not rock hard. What I was seeing was a normal penis in operation.

Now, my skin is loose on my shaft when I am erect. It is very mobile as I experience the gliding action of my restored foreskin. When I am fully erect, my penis is stiff, but it is not rock hard like before. My glans is spongy. It is not pulled tight like it used to be. I am learning that I do not need to be rock hard to enjoy an erection. I no longer have that broomstick with a knob on the end described in Sex as Nature Intended It. Read more . . .

Intactivism: Week in Review February 12, 2011

by Tally on February 12, 2011

Pogo: We have met the enemy and he is us. (Why do we continue to circumcise our baby boys?)Parents, protect your babies. Support intactivism. The following list includes blogs, articles, and websites of interest to Intactivists that were published in the past week. This is a running tally of the ones I found interesting.

The graphic accompanying this post refers to my despair at how humans treat each other. Circumcision and genital cutting of children continues because parents allow it. Instead of protecting their children from harm, parents allow others to cut off parts of their children's genitals.

The Case Against Infant Circumcision: The Circumcision Lies 1
In order to continue and promote infant circumcison, circumcision advocates lie about the normal human anatomy, such as that the foreskin serves no function. They ignore that the foreskin is erogenous tissue.

The Daily Guggie Daly: Confessions of an Intact Teen
A 13 year old intact boy watched a circumcision video and had this to say: "It made me sick to my stomach. I can't believe the doctor did that to a baby. I can't believe people like that are allowed to walk free after torturing a baby on their most sensitive spot. Why did the dad just sit there? Why didn't the dad hit the doctor, push him away, grab his baby and run?" Read more . . .

Wanking: Everyone's favorite pastime

by Tally on February 3, 2011

Masturbate-a-thon logoAt about the time a boy reaches puberty, he learns an important, life-long skill. He learns how to masturbate, to wank, to jack off, to jerk off, to fap, to buff the bananna, to take matters into his own hands, to . . . you get the idea. He learns how to pleasure himself.

I have heard that women masturbate, too. But I have no direct experience about that.

I do not recall when I first learned about masturbation. I do recall being a typical horney teen. It seems that I went through high school with a permanent erection. After I went to college my horndog period ended. Living in a dorm and having little privacy caused me to reduce my masturbation frequency. Read more . . .
