Back in my day, the joke was always "are you a helmet or a toque!?" and it was the anteaters who were always teased. I figure the fiance and I will decide together and do what we feel is right, I was snipped and don't feel like my parents stole a choice away from me at all. Very good read however, interesting to see just how strongly some people voice their opinions, almost personal when it comes to the attacks.

I think this is a big part of it as well. There doesn't seem to be much of a consensus either way about benefits vs harms scientifically. Most of the reasons popping up seem to have to do with "keeping it the same as dad" or still lingering ideas about the health benefits preached to them when they were younger.
I remember a kid had his thing pop out while doing gymnastics in like grade 7 or 8. A girl spotted him not being circumcised and laid into him for it. Calling him disgusting and telling him to get snipped. A lot of people joined in. As an anteater myself, it made me feel like I was weird for having it and honestly made me very self conscious about the possibility of a girl seeing it.
I quickly found out in my late teens early twenties that no one cares and there were definitely no complaints from women. When it's a full mast it doesn't look much different anyway. I don't see how it couldn't hinder your pleasure though. The tip for me is super sensitive, there is no way I could just let it hang out rubbing against my clothes. The fact that many guys walk around like that tells me that the tip has to be de-sensitized.
On one hand, I don't think it's a big deal either way, on the other hand, that begs the question "why?" Kid might get made fun of, or they have to clean it properly, or that's what dad is like are not very good reasons to be cutting a piece of people off at birth. Whether it hurts the kid that much is irrelevant to me, if there doesn't show to be a difference either way, then whats the point?
