Just woke up like 10 minutes ago. My mouth is still in pain from the extraction especially since I haven't taken any pain killers or medication since 9 yesterday night. Ucck I can still taste the blood.
Anyways I just got done reading this interesting article about circumcision and it made me really think hard about my own commando. The article basically talked about the benefits of circumcision and how it can help prevent sexually transmitted diseases. Now I've already known about this from the various people I talk to and various sources that I found in the past but this article from Men’s Health is still very insightful.
I remember feeling this sticky sore pain on my penis as I went through puberty. Most of the sensation was on the foreskin. I don't think anybody else was exposed to that kind of pain because almost 90% of my classmates or friends were circumcised.
“But it’s not without its rewards. The Africa trials add substantial weight to a mounting pile of evidence that circumcision also reduces the spread of other sexually transmitted illnesses, including several types of cancer and venereal disease. The journal BMC Infectious Diseases published a study (coauthored by Halperin and four others) that compared rates of cervical cancer-caused by Halperin and four others) that compared rates of cervical cancer-caused by the sexually transmitted human papillomavirus, or HPV-in more than 100 countries in Asia, Africa, and Latin America. In countries where fewer than 20 percent of men were circumcised, cervical-cancer rates were about 70 percent higher than in countries where more than 80 percent were circumcised.” From Men’s Health March 2009 Page 95
Besides the unhygienic and uneasy feeling that subsides daily in an uncircumcised penis there is also a risk of catching a STD is higher than a circumcised penis. This can be shown through studies done in Africa in conjunction with the AIDS epidemic and The Human Papillomavirus or the HPV. There is no need for the extra foreskin anymore after birth.
“CIRCUMCISED OR NOT, EVERY MAN OWES HIS foreskin a great debt of gratitude for its service in the womb. In the third month of gestation, when the nascent penis begins to bloom, the foreskin forms a little protective blanket under which the rest of the pens can safely grow. But once you and your penis are fully baked, the advantage of a foreskin is not clear. Some scientists speculate that it protected the prehistoric penis as it swung, naked, through thick forests and over tall grasses; and unless you take your penis on that sort of excursion, they argue, you don’t need a foreskin.” From Men’s Health March 2009 page 94
Well for one thing I am definitely not swinging my jingaling around in the urban jungles of New York City. Best of all the circumcision does not hurt at all these days since in this day and age the operation is very procedure. They are mandated to put the patient under Anesthesia. Well I’m not trying to sell circumcision to every guy that is uncircumcised but it does sound like a good plan with so many benefits. I’m definitely getting my little yellow Asian penis circumcised when I get the money!!!
Get your commando circumcised today homies!!!!
