Hm, you have a point there.

Really? Wow, that's new to me...I assumed everyone was "snipped" these days (except of course for Jews)

Why except jews? This seems like a completely backwards statement; especially since more and more parents are opting not to have their children circumsized, as it costs 50 bucks and there are not really any clear cut (c wut i did thar??) health benefits.

Well perhaps my original thoughts regarding males being circumcised were wrong but...damn...I'm surrounded by "un-snipped" men ... get back you unclean heathens!

I could split if if you want Jeff. ~Snip it in two.

Bah it's fine. Might as well let it run its course. There's no need to cut out this discussion.
