[When I bought the 1st edition of Ritter's book back in 1993, I at first
didn't realize the value of such a list. Not being one keen on following
personalities, I dismissed the list as nearly silly. Then, suddenly
remembering how Americans are so entralled with such publications as
People magazine, and the various other media that focus so much on
personalities, I recognized the importance of Ritter's list and the one
below.]

(numerous names dropped here)
It's clear that Larry Clark, like so many men in the US, is not aware
that the surgery of infant circumcision, probably inflicted on him and
certainly inflicted on about 90% of US born males, was senseless,
violent, unspeakably painful for the baby [the great majority get no
anesthesia], nature-insulting, in fact contraindicated, unethical and
immoral, and damaging/destructive. 85% of the world's males have normal,
natural, whole, INTACT penises. This practice has NEVER been a true
medical issue but has always been a sexual issue and a human rights
violation of helpless children and baby boys.
This barbaric and horrendous practice is based in ignorance, fears,
silence, great denial, control by those who were forced in their own
infancies to undergo this atrocity and fraud, myths, superstition (i. e.
religion), and in US medicine, appalling ignorance, arrogance, fears,
denial, fraud, deception and lies, absence of ethics, and greed. [Over
$250 million is wasted yearly in the US on this practice of "routine
infant circumcision". With everything taken into account - all the other
related matters to this practice - the bill comes to around $1 billion
per year wasted in the US!]
Since a normal, natural, healthy and lifelong beneficial body part
(belonging only to that baby) is destroyed and amputated, "routine
infant circumcision" is a euphemism for male sexual mutilation. While
preserving the ability to procreate, this sexual mutilation done on a
baby's small, delicate and sensitive penis, causes an incomplete,
restricted, limited, controlled, and damaged sexual experience. The
damage is anatomical, neurological and physiological in nature and is
for life: important nerves and erotogenic tissue, and sexual
interactions are gone forever. Between 12 and 15 square inches of the
skin system of the penis is lost- this is a 60 to 80% loss of that skin
system. [This loss of the skin system causes thinnish, tight and rather
to very immovable skin during erection. The penis is made dowel-like
during erection: no relaxed, easily movable skin during erection; no
natural, built-in sex toy for the man and his partner. Some men have
lost so much that they have painful erections, and some tear and bleed
during sex and masturbation.] The frenulum is often completely sliced
off during the sexual mutilation. [The frenulum is one of the 2 primary
neurological triggers for ejaculation.] The glans (=head of penis) is
forever permanently exposed (when on the normal, intact penis it is an
internal, covered-protected-kept sensitive part of the penis. With no
foreskin, it becomes insensitive leading inexorably to sexual crippling
generally occurring in the early to mid 40's, the time when the glans is
totally and tragically insensitive. Men then can have great difficulty
reaching orgasm and ejaculation- unhappiness, frustration, and
humiliation are the result.
Centuries of religious abuse from Judaism and Christianity led, in the
19th century, to great religious and social hysteria over masturbation.
This hysteria ruled mainly in the English speaking world. Sexophobic
Jews and fundamentalist Christian doctors in that century knew that the
penis is notably damaged by circumcision, an anti-human practice if ever
there were one. [It is anti-human since it restricts, controls, limits
and damages sexual pleasure.] Once set in motion by these doctors, it
was later justified with changing "reasons" of health/hygiene/disease.
While these have been discredited and disproved, the great tragedy for
the US is that nearly all
(~ 90%) males were made the victims for life of this sexual mutilation.
The normal, intact penis was nearly eradicated in the US!! US males
represent the greatest number of sexually mutilated males who have ever
lived in one land on this planet. This is a national disgrace and great
shame on US doctors.
Since the victims of the mutilation don't recall the agony and torture
of the mutilation, and since they can never truly know what a normal
intact penis is like, they grow up thinking themselves normal. Actually,
peoples abroad know that this practice is a horror and that the practice
desexualizes the penis- the circumcised/sexually mutilated penis is a
partial, man-made, man-damaged one. And yet, due to their ignorance,
fears, and denial, too many of these victims defend and promote the
practice, passing on this child sexual abuse to their newborn sons.
The practice guarantees some degree of sexual dysfunction and ensures an
incompleteness in sexual pleasures and experiences. The more one finds
out about this practice, the worse the story (i. e. the painful truth
and the horrifying facts) becomes. The great majority of US trained
doctors are ignorant of the history of the practice in the US, are
ignorant of the lifelong purposes and benefits of the male foreskin, and
are themselves (if male and sexually mutilated as most of the male ones
are) living with these remnants of penises. Denial about this wrong and
injustice in the sexual lives of males is one of the big obstacles in
educating others about this despicable practice.
Now read this:
The following appeared in FQ (Foreskin Quarterly, issue 13,
March 1990. It describes well the motives and views of
M. D.’s who took, and continue to take, knife and clamp
(or other contraption/gadget) to a helpless baby’s
(or boy’s) normal, natural, intact, healthy, small,
sensitive and delicate penis, taking it apart and
re-designing it forever, for life.
CIRCUMCISION VARIATIONS
by Ron Redmond
[original with drawings/renderings of the variations in man-
made, (i. e. M. D. produced), redesigned, physically
altered/damaged penises]
A study of the medical literature on circumcision over
the last hundred years reveals some odd facts about motives
and lets us draw some conclusions about why there are so many
variations in both methods and results.
Originally doctors saw circumcision as both a
preventative and a cure for masturbation. The beliefs of the
Victorian era held masturbation in disrepute. It was sinful,
therefore it must be harmful. We need not dwell on the
variety of illnesses attributed to masturbation during the
late 19th century.
Since the instinctive way to masturbate is to fist the
foreskin back and forth on the penis, one obvious way of
stamping out masturbation was to remove the foreskin. Once
this practice was started among people for whom circumcision
was not a religious injunction, there were soon many other
“reasons” found for it. A tight foreskin was the “cause” of
venereal disease, of irritation leading to masturbation,
bedwetting, nervousness, and a long list of other disorders.
The practice of circumcision evolved until today we find a
wide variety of motives among the doctors who perform it,
which accounts for the differences in surgical techniques and
amounts of tissue removed.
We can put these motives - and doctors - in categories
ranging from the altruistic to the sadistic. The pain
inflicted by the operation varies, as does the nature of the
ensuing complications. Let’s look at these categories, in the
awareness that some of them overlap and that the doctors
often have more than one motive.
The Anti-sex Moralist
This type of doctor sees himself as a crusader against
masturbation and immorality, and his purpose is to suppress
the sensitivity of the penis. He not only tries to make
masturbation as difficult as possible for his patient; he
believes that a radical circumcision will prevent what he
sees as excessive sexual sensitivity.
He removes as much shaft skin as he can, and all of the
sensitive inner lining, to attain a very tight cut. He also
removes the frenulum, the sensitive band on the underside of
the head, to suppress sensitivity further. The result is a
glans that is totally bareheaded, exposed to urine from the
diaper and to friction from clothing.
Often this doctor cuts off so much that when the baby
has an erection, the edges of the wound pull apart and bleed.
There is also danger of bleeding from the frenular artery,
which is cut when the frenulum is removed. In extreme cases,
with too much shaft skin removed, the ring of the
circumcision lies well back of the rim; since there is no
inner lining, the space fills with granulation tissue and
looks like the scarring that results from a bad burn.
As the boy grows, there isn’t enough skin left on his
shaft to accommodate the increasing size of his penis, so the
skin is pulled tightly all the time. Upon erection there
isn’t enough skin to move freely and the boy must resort to a
lubricant to aid his masturbation. Some men have reported
that the size of their erection has been slightly reduced by
so tight a circumcision. [N. B. Happening in the very tightly
cut man who has, during erection, a thinnish, tightly
stretched remnant of penile skin, this shortened erect penis
occurs since the main bulk of the erect penis has not enough
outer skin envelope to attain the full length, so some of the
length of the penis is kept back in the pelvis.]
The Hygienist
This doctor is concerned with retraction of the foreskin
for cleaning, which is unnecessary for a baby. The foreskin
and glans are still fused together, which often makes
retraction impossible. The foreskin protects an infant from
diaper ammonia and other irritations.
The doctor doesn’t remove the entire foreskin if he
feels that removing only the forward part will allow
sufficient room for retraction. He instructs the mother to be
sure and wash the penis every day, for “hygiene”. If he is
concerned about penile odor, he may excise the entire
foreskin, paying special attention to the inner lining and
removal of the Tyson’s glands, which produce one component of
smegma. He doesn’t necessarily remove the frenulum.
Not removing the entire foreskin can cause one
complication: adhesion of the cut edges to the glans; these
may be cut apart later by the pediatrician, but with further
pain to the baby.
The Sculptor
This doctor simply likes the look of the bareheaded
penis and lovingly tailors the baby’s organ to suit his own
idea of masculine beauty. He is probably circumcised himself
and thinks that the bare look is “normal” and that a flaring
corona is the symbol of such beauty. He may believe that the
size of the glans and flare of the corona are determined not
by heredity but by the tightness of the foreskin. Hence he
removes enough foreskin to expose the glans to the corona, to
allow unhampered growth. The frenulum being unimportant to
this purpose, he may leave it on. He also will not cut too
tightly, just enough to denude the glans, leaving enough
slack for masturbatory efforts by the boy.
The doctor does as esthetic a job as he can, and the
result is usually a neat-looking circumcision ring, not the
jagged line resulting from other types of operation.
The Cut-For-Profit Type
This doctor sees circumcision simply as a way to earn an
extra fee and uses whatever method he has been taught in
medical school. He wants to get the operation over with as
soon as possible, to present the mother with her son’s
bandaged penis as proof that he’s earned his fee. He may cut
a lot, or only a little. The odds are overwhelming that he
uses one of the clamp techniques, which are quick and don’t
result in the radical circumcision of the freehand method.
[N. B. Use of one of the clamps, such as the GOMCO, can
result in a very radical circumcision which produces a
boy/later man very tightly cut.]
This profiteer type runs a mass-production business and
usually waits until he has several babies for a quick session
of assembly-line circumcisions. He goes down the line
hurriedly, with results that vary from one penis to another.
Some babies escape with relatively minor mutilation; others
are skinned back severely. This doctor is antagonistic to the
use of anesthesia because it entails an extra step. He
doesn’t care about the baby’s screams, knowing that they’re
an ineffective complaint.
The Compassionate Doctor
This doctor removes the foreskin reluctantly and only
because the parents want it done. He takes care in cutting,
doesn’t remove too much- perhaps performing a minimal
circumcision that leaves the head mostly covered- and almost
always spares the frenulum. He is the type most deeply
concerned about the baby’s pain and most likely to use local
anesthesia. Before operating, he’ll allow time for the
anesthetic to take effect, injecting more [into the penis] as
necessary to prevent any pain for the baby.
The Sadist
This type is rarely documented in medical literature,
but unofficial reports by medical personnel opposed to
circumcision reveal that some doctors enjoy performing this
surgery, laughing and making lewd remarks while doing so.
The sadistic doctor derives a clearly sexual pleasure
from cutting a baby’s penis, sometimes getting an erection
during the operation. He enjoys the baby’s pain and takes his
time doing his job. He never uses any sort of anesthetic;
that would spoil it for him. He may lie to the mother,
telling her that the baby is too young to feel any pain. In
some instances he will fondle the baby’s penis before
operating, producing an erection. This helps the doctor
determine how much skin to leave on, but he has an ulterior
motive as well.
The amount of skin he removes varies according to his
personal whim. He proceeds slowly and carefully, prolonging
the operation for as much time as possible. Sometimes the
baby gets an erection during or after the surgery, as reflex
reaction to the intense pain, which the doctor enjoys.
We may note that there also exist sadistic nurses who
enjoy assisting at circumcisions. Their job includes jabbing
the baby with a syringe- injecting a dose of vitamin K to aid
blood clotting- and strapping the baby down for the surgery.
Such nurses enjoy watching the operation and bandaging the
bloody penis afterward. When changing the bandage, they may
rip it loose forcefully, causing more bleeding and pain.
Following circumcision, the baby cries whenever he
urinates, as the hot, acid urine contacts the raw tissue of
the cut. The sadistic nurse may take her time changing the
diaper or leave the baby crying in his wet diaper for many
minutes while she busies herself with something else nearby.
Some of these nurses are man haters who enjoy seeing a
helpless male being sexually mutilated and suffering the pain
of sexual surgery without anesthesia.
Instruments
The freehand method, involving scissors or scalpel,
leads to wide variation in results. If the doctor uses the
guillotine technique, pulling the foreskin forward and
cutting off the part extending beyond the glans, the amount
of skin removed depends on the tension he exerts. If he uses
the dorsal-slit-and-side-cuts technique, the amount depends
on his arbitrary choice of a line. The penis may be left
totally bareheaded or partially covered. Working freehand,
the doctor may or may not remove the frenulum and will leave
a varying amount of the mucous inner lining.
The GOMCO clamp is a bell-shaped metal device that fits
over the head of the penis. Because the infant’s foreskin is
tight, the doctor usually has to slit it along the top to
work in the bell. The GOMCO has a ring that clamps down on
the foreskin after the doctor pulls the latter over the bell.
The amount of skin removed varies, but never totals the
amount possible in a freehand operation.
The Plastibell is a plastic bell that fits over the head
of the penis. The doctor slits the foreskin to widen the
opening, inserts the bell, and pulls the foreskin up over it.
There is a groove in the Plastibell for a cord that cuts off
circulation. Once the doctor has tied the cord in place, he
removes the skin forward of the cord, leaving the bell on the
penis. The bell falls off in about a week. Because of the
approximately one-quarter-inch section of bell behind the
cord groove, there is always slack when the bell falls off,
leaving a cuff of skin behind the head.
In cases where the doctor tries for a very tight cut,
the bell exerts a lot of pressure on the glans and
surrounding tissue, causing indentations which may be
permanent or even loss of blood circulation in the glans.
Whatever his method, the doctor has to tear loose the
foreskin of some babies, those whose inner lining and glans
have not yet separated. The tearing and the slitting are more
painful- because they take more time- than the clamping and
cutting. If the lining has to be torn loose, patches of the
delicate mucous membrane of the glans often come with it.
This is the cause of the pockmarks sometimes seen on the
glans of an older male. Tearing patches from the surface of
the glans further deadens sensitivity.
Summary
We have seen changes in techniques and results over the
years. Forty or fifty years ago, when masturbation hysteria
was still prevalent, the favored style of circumcision was
the streamlines, clean-cut look, with very little shaft skin
left. The skin was very tight, even in the immature penis,
and the glans stood out prominently. The frenulum was often
partly or totally cut away.
With the advent of clamps and the accumulation of
experience in their use- and the abatement of the
masturbation phobia- we began to see circumcised penises with
their glans denuded but a generous cuff of skin left in the
groove behind the head. The streamlined look was out, and
there was concern to leave enough skin to allow for erections
and for growth. Today we see more partial circumcisions- with
enough hood left to cover the head at least halfway- because
most of the doctors who push circumcision recognize that
radical mutilation is undesirable.
The different motives and techniques account for the
differences we see in circumcised penises. Even among
circumcised boys in the same family, we can see differences
if the boys were delivered by different obstetricians, or if
one was circumcised by the obstetrician and another by the
family doctor. One will be cut tightly, another loosely, and
a third may have most of his foreskin left.
Parental preference affect the results. Some mothers
want their son to match their husband. If the latter was cut
tightly, the mother may feel cheated if the boy isn’t, and
may complain or demand a re-circumcision. The same demand may
be made by a mother who is an avid crotch-watcher and likes
to view the compound curves of a glans unshrouded by any
skin. Sometimes parents express their preferences to the
doctor in advance.
There is no standard method and no agreement on what
constitutes a “good” circumcision. The result of all this is
a greater range of differences among remodeled organs than
among natural, intact one.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Do parents wish to have their son’s penis shaped to some
unknown standard a doctor perceives to be his/her ideal? In
many instances, so much foreskin and shaft skin are removed
that there is not enough remaining for the growth of the
developing penis during puberty. Results are radical
curvatures, bowing, painful erections and tearing, deadening
of the glans, and other more serious problems. Leave the boy
as Nature intended - Whole, INTACT, Natural!! Protect the
*basic human rights* of your child to ALL of his normal,
natural, healthy and lifelong beneficial body parts. The male
foreskin is a highly specialized, nerve-rich and erogenous
movable and integral part of the skin system of the intact
penis. It is essential for normal sexual development and
growth, and essential for normal sexual functioning and
the full range of sexual pleasures that are the birthright
of every boy and man. Allowing some doctor to destroy and
amputate it guarantees that the boy, and later the man, will
only know a partial, incomplete sexual experience. This
contraindicated operation also will ensure some degree of
sexual dysfunction (of a physical and mechanical nature)
and will lead, in his early to mid 40's, to an early end
to his sexual life (i. e. sexual crippling at that point
in life: much trouble beginning then in reaching
orgasm and ejaculation, causing frustration and humiliation).
Information on the normal intact penis, on its
physical/mechanical functioning during sex, and on the
lifelong harm and damage from “infant circumcision” is found
at:
http://www.cirp.org/CIRP/
Those aware of the sexual, physical, medical, emotional,
psychological, and self-esteem forms of lifelong harm done
to them as a direct result of the senseless,
nature-insulting, violent, and damaging/destructive
practice of "infant circumcision" (i. e. male
genital/sexual mutilation) should go to this Web page
and request the harm documentation form from NOHARMM:

If your lost your foreskin at birth, you're of course not able to say
the same thing about a normal intact penis: you were never allowed to
have a normal intact penis. That normal and important part of you was
cut off and thrown away [Those cut off of babies' penises may be sold
today.]
While you say your penis has this aerodynamic look to it, have you ever
actually tried flying around naked to see if it actually works as an
aerodynamic object?
I agree that whether this or that famous person was or wasn't
circumcised should not be a deciding factor in your decision whether
or not to circumcise your kid.
Unfortunately so many people in America are obsessed with celebrities
and what they do and don't do in their lives, that they may just base
such an important decision on the previous post.

Interesting. It's been said many times by Jews and
pro-circers on these threads, "Lookey here...we've managed
to achieve wonderful lives and accomplish wonderful feats
even from being circumcised!" And that implies, "Look, being
circ'd didn't hurt us! Circ'ing is ok!" And now....when we do
the same thing and say, "Here...Look at this...we've managed
to achieve wonderful lives and accomplish wonderful feats
even from being intact!" and that implies, "Look, being
intact didn't hurt us! Being intact is ok!"--you are dismissing
it as "this shouldn't be a deciding factor". Go figure.

If someone actually did base their decision not to circumcise on the now
deleted list of celebreties then their decision would be as well founded
as most people's reasons to circumcise.
Of course, there are many much better reasons not to circumcise. The most
obvious is the inherent immorality of performing a completely optional
surgical procedure with no known medical benefits which corrects no
definable defects with serious risks on an innocent child who is not
able to begin to comprehend what is happening to him.
He does feel the pain, though.
If it ain't broke, don't fix it.

Rather than publish a huge list of uncut men, it would seem to me to be
much more frugal to offer a simple piece of advice. If anybody wishes to
circumncise their children, then sit through the procedure once before
making the call. Maybe somebody could make an instructional videotape of a
male and female circumncision in graphic detail, along with death and
hospitalization statistics due to either procedure, and the incredibly
short list of the real medical benefits of either. Have ob-gyns distribute
it to expectant parents as a part of pre-natal care, and refuse to perform
any such procedure unless both parents have viewed the tape. Incorporate
it into Lamaze classes. Broadcast it on TV as public service
announcements. Spread it around. Simple enough.

First of all you are assuming that I am either Jewish or
pro-circumcision...maybe before making such assumptions you should
consult with the person you are replying to as I am neither.
In fact I am very much anti-circumcision.
I think these threads on circumcision are very important (it was
through one of them that I realized just how unnecessary and IMO (and
my others) cruel circumcision is. But I think when people start
attacking people who are on their side like this we have gone to far.
I'm sorry but I cannot see how making such an important decision based
not upon facts and information but on whether or not Kevin Costner is
or isn't is well founded.
I am against circumcision but I would rather someone took the time to
research their decision (even if it means they end up circumcising)
then basing it on something as trivial as the entertainment world.
----Jenny
No...I did not assume that you were Jewish or pro-circ
and nothing in my post above presumes that you are either of
those.
I clearly noted that "Jews and pro-circ'ers on this thread
have said..." That is a true statement. This does not
mean I thought you were. Perhaps you are assuming that
just because I used your post for my reply that that means
it is inclusionary. That is also not the case. That is why I
specifically stated my post in that way..."Jews and pro-circ'ers
have said 'Look...circ hasn't hindered us."

Sorry you felt that I was attacking you--I most definitely
was not. I was bringing up the comparison that *has been
brought up by Jews and pro-circer's* (which does not include
you)...and showing the other side of "Well...see? Being intact
didn't hinder them!" I hope we are clear on this now? :)

It's a good idea David. And, if followed, would undoubtedly reduce the
number of circumcisions that are performed. Unfortunately, I doubt
that it could be implemented.
At the time that my 7 year old son was born, a circumcision cost
$145.00.
I would assume that there is an adequate profit margin in that fee.
And I suspect that the price of the procedure is higher than that
today.
My point is simply this: I doubt that the medical community would
willingly engage in a campaign whose aim is to stop a profit
generating procedure.
To the best of my knowledge, nobody has a financial interest stopping
the circumcision of baby boys. As long as it's profitable, it will
continue.

Presumably, Gwen, you have a point here? I've been circumncised, too, but
that does not render it intrisically correct to perform elective surgery on
infant boys.

We get a little loud some times, yes. But only because this is one of
those decisions which cannot be un-done.
Seriously, I would hope that you might consider some of the information
available at sites like Mr. Falk's excellent www.cirp.org site, and
get as much info from _both_ sides of the argument as possible. Perhaps
then you will understand why we sometimes become very vocal and strident
about this issue.

I can think of very few, if any, procedures done to a child - vaccination,
dental work, etc, that can be undone. Is this a new criterion?

Yes, a parent should get opinions from both sides. It should be recognized
that Mr Falks posting do have a particular position to expound. I see no
justification for your becoming sometimes very vocal and strident. On the
contrary, it is probably this attitude, to me irrational, that prompted
the postings in the first place.
While vaccination cannot be undone, unlike circumcision it does not generally
leave the patient with less than what he had before the vaccination.

I would have thought it would depend more upon the child's feelings, but then he's only the one who's
going to get his penis sliced up.

Would the person who posted the "famous intact men" list please email me a
copy? I can't get the older posts to come up and I don't recall who it was
that posted the list.
