  • Recently, there's been a lot more male frontal nudity in pop culture. But is what society is being shown an accurate representation of the average size of the male genitalia? VICE Producer Zeke Spector spirals down the rabbit hole to figure out how the depictions of penises in the media vary from the average and how these higher beauty standards can create conflict in society.

    That Bloodstained Men leader is fantastic. Spitting absolute bangers. Makes me want to join the org being a circumcised man myself. This was a fantastic video, great job Vice. My only issue with it is the initial conversations surrounding penis sizes and then the content makes an obvious turn towards the extreme sizes. This to me deflates the whole conversation and might make men with genuine size concerns look like we all want to go around wielding 10 inch, 11 inch and crazy big sizes which certainly doesn't speak for myself and I'm sure doesn't speak to most men, such as those of us who are legitimately small or smaller than average or diagnosed with micro-penis. It may not have been the intention behind the creators here but that's certainly how it felt to me. It's important to portray what the extreme side of things looks like but given that I feel most of society tends to take penis enlargement as a joke most of the time it made that part of the video feel less substantive and might help feed other people's perceptions that penis enlargement is nothing more than a fetish or a fad and not to be taken all that seriously.

For what reason? What medical reason is there for tying my son down and cutting his skin off?” And her answer was “well there is no medical reason as long as it’s kept clean” and he just dismissed her and then I actually thought about it A LOT

      As an American who found themselves pregnant with a baby boy I was actually very concerned with the decision of circumcision. I did some research and was so disgusted. A baby the mintue it comes out the womb is supposed to feel skin to skin.
      Doctors nurses will lie to your face (mostly unknowingly) that babies cant feel it. But you wouldn't cut off the earlobe because that's barbaric but it's okay to cut down there. Its appalling and just another thing that's deeply flawed with our healthcare system. Yay America.

      Most American boys are in favor of their circumcisions usually and I think it's mostly due to a phenomena thats very present in this country where people take up a decided and strong viewpoint on something as a coping mechanism to hide the true reality that what they pertain to believe in is out of their control. So many American biases are contrived this way... Our division exists only in our insecurity of our multitudes of oppression.

    I was born in a country where my generation of baby boys were no longer circumcised. When my family and I moved to the US however, my parents got pressured into allowing the procedure to be done to me. I was five years old and remember the whole experience and how terribly painful and gruesome it was. I now live in Germany and realize that such a procedure was completely unnecessary and done without my consent and with absolutely zero benefits. My sister unfortunately is a doctor in the US and has been brainwashed to believe that circumcision is absolutely necessary. It makes me so sad to think that Americans consider mutilating baby boys beneficial. To me, it’s absolutely a crime, just like female genital mutilation. American doctors should be ashamed of themselves for performing such procedures. Stop mutilating baby boys under the guise of a “necessary” medical intervention. And to all American mothers: how would you have liked it, if your parents had performed female genital mutilation on you?

      Female mutilation removes proportionally much more of the organ and commonly the entire organ. Procedures like the “husband stitch” can cause excruciating pain and have been performed without consent on adults as well as babies. Female mutation is a symptom of sxism and not just misguided health concerns or aesthetics.
      Both horrible but not at all the same. Your point stands on its own. You don’t need to compare.

The long and the short of my story, is, my Weiner had a melt down and became difficult to obtain a good erection. I did a bit of research and found out this is well known issue with diabetes. In all honesty, I got so depressed, I was close to the edge. Anyway, it's something you have to live with. It's often upsetting, because of future relationships.

      First time I encountered a uncircumcised dck in the wild (my brother wasn’t circumcised but I wasn’t interacting with his dck) I was a bit taken aback. I’d never thought to much about circumcision bc every guy I’d been with was cut. But I was hooking up with this Russian dude and ended up prob asking way too many questions. I realized I’d been culturally conditioned to think a cut shlong was how a dck was supposed to look. I still find them more aesthetically pleasing but it’s not a deal breaker. When I was pregnant I actually got in a huge fight with my bf ovr whether we’d circumcise our baby if it was a boy. I insisted it should be his choice and he couldn’t decide at 5mins old. Fortunately we had a grl bc my bf told me he wouldn’t have anything to do with his son if I didn’t get him circumcised. (He was young & immature.) But to him it was unthinkable. He’s actually come around to agreeing with my position now. But when you’re raised believing something is the correct way to do things, it can take awhile to let go of that way of thinking. In America for a large % of the population, circumcision is just normal and just the correct way to deal with baby boys. Tho that is changing. Mostly the crunchier types tho.

      Hence why it should be done at birth. The pain will not be remembered. The benefits far outweigh the downsides. It prevents retraction problems entirely, reduces chances of UTI’s and penile cancers and is the more hygienic option. Leaving it down to the choice of the person is cruelty. If they want it done it will be painful for them, naturally. It should be done at birth, to every male born. I mustn’t forget to mention, if a male does have retraction problems, the one and only cure: is circumcision.

    “The prepuce [foreskin] is the most densely innervated and sensitive region of the penis, with an abundance of tactile corpuscles and nerves concentrated in ridges on its proximal inner surface. Circumcision thus removes the most sensitive part of the penis. The exposed mucous membrane of the glans then transforms to a thin, drier, and less sensitive epidermis.” Anatomy and Physiology: The Unity of Form and Function, Kenneth Saladin (McGraw-Hill, 8th ed.), p. 1037

It is absolutely the case that circumcision of healthy infants is harmful and that the conditions are not in place to allow proxy-consent by parents.

    The most evil aspect of circumcision is that circumcised boys grow up to become men obsessed with circumcising their own sons. This is why circumcision persists from generation to generation. Countries that used to circumcise large numbers of infants but that no longer do so are Australia, parts of Canada, New Zealand and the UK. Since the 1990s, routine infant circumcision has been a minority practice west of the continental divide.

    • @PlaySA
      @PlaySA Před 4 měsíci

      Probably because those men strongly prefer their circumcised penises? I don't understand why or how it would be better with foreskin on top, it's plenty sensitive, dry clean etc. Despite what the activist said there are also medical and hygienic benefits. It reduces the chance of catching HIV and other STIs (slightly, but it does). It's also easier to keep clean and smelling nice. It's a touch decision, and I won't be having kids anyways, but I'm happy my parents did it for me.

From my experience there isn't a great difference in sensation between the two, and it actually has some medical benefits in preventing disease and infection.

      One of my husbands most traumatic memories is requiring a circumcision at 10 yo for those health reasons. His mom didn’t believe in circumcising him as a baby, but he ended up requiring one later. The procedure was done under general anesthesia, but the healing took forever and it was apparently ungodly painful for a long time. He is adamant boys should be circumcised due to his own experience. So don’t be too hard on yourself.

      @@rosieposie2161 First off, really sorry your husband had to endure that. It’s a lot to go through at any age. While I can’t speak to the details of his surgery and the necessity of it, I will say that in the past, a lot of issues (like phimosis) that were once treated with circumcision are now cured non-surgically. American (and Australian, Canadian, etc.) doctors were trained to have a really negative attitude towards foreskin, so cutting it off was kind of a cure all. In other countries where more guys have it and there’s a better knowledge of its anatomy, it’s really not that common for guys to have to get it done.
      And to the op, don’t beat yourself up over it. It’s a cultural shift that needs to happen and it’s really not your fault.
