FTFY
Let's call a spade a spade. Would that I had enough excess to spare and not miss it.

I'd like to see if you opted for the procedure at your age now, conscious and w/o anesthesia. We'd see how simple it really is. It's barbaric and stupid.

I am sorry that Crowe felt pressured to apologize for his opinions because it offended a group of people who disagreed with him.

Have you ever witnessed a circumcision? When done correctly it takes about 10 seconds, so yes, I can imagine having it done on myself as an adult. Also, why no topical anesthetic? Suffering is not part of any requirement.

Adults do get circumcised.

Rich, we're gonna have to agree to disagree here. Alls I know is when I got circumcised I was so freaked out I couldn't speak for nearly a year.
