No Such Thing as an Unbiased Opinion on Circumcision

I no longer believe that there is such a thing as an unbiased opinion on circumcision. People try to present their own beliefs as some sort of eternal truth, and even present logical arguments in favor, but since they never agree with each other they cannot all be true at the same time.

Circumcision and Cleanliness

One argument in favor of circumcision is that it improves hygiene. The counter argument is that these days hot showers and soap is available so cutting off body parts to keep clean seems to be excessive.

Circumcision and Nudity

Cultures where people run around naked typically don't practice circumcision while cultures that do typically require people to be clothed and may even have taboos against seeing each other naked.

The Weirdest Thing About Circumcision

 The weirdest thing about circumcision is that it sounds so horrifying yet it is so beneficial.

Just thinking about getting part of their dick cut off makes a man flinch and when one first hears about what is actually done it is terrifying. It must have been even more so before anesthetics were invented.

Yet when you actually do get a circumcision it turns out to be an improvement to your health and pleasure. OK, it still hurts a lot unless you are numbed up for the procedure, but once you heal it is great.

I am sure it has something to do with why many religions and cultures have adopted it as a rite. You must have some faith that things will turn out OK, and brave enough to go for it.

But for those who go for it there is a reward at the end.

Key Differences between ZSR I & II Generation Staplers

The new version of the ZSR Stapler has some openings on the side which helps with one of the major problems that the older device had to be placed blindly.

Thus the exact placement of the cut for 'style' can now be adjusted under direct observation.

Also there is better option to keep the frenulum is the patient so wishes.

The ZSR Stapler is becoming a cheap and reliable way to perform circumcisions by basically any medical personnel as it does not require the same surgical skills as performing a free hand circumcision and get good results.

Don't Panic: Anatomical Variations

People sometimes panic that their circumcision is somehow 'misaligned' when the perineal raphe (that line on the underside of your penis that continues over and beyond your scrotum) is not exactly in the middle after the operation.

It is good to have a 'before' picture to compare it to, the raphe tends to wind all over the place and it is rarely centered perfectly around the foreskin section of the skin.

So, if after your circumcision your raphe is not in the middle it does not mean it has been shifted during the operation, it might just be where it always has been. If in doubt try to compare it to a 'before' picture.
