Exactly who am I potentially offending by any of these comments
No health issue involved, they just looked a little ridiculous based on our society's standards.
Who am I offending here? The three-inch-long-ear-lobe crowd?
Are you saying that you wouldn't do anything about it if your baby was born that way?
the best time to surgically correct the problem. Just a little snipping
So you wouldn't consider it a cosmetic problem then? You would let your kid go through life being called "Dumbo" or something?
Of course it would be a problem, and I don't see how anyone could possibly be offended by labeling it as such.
It would be surgery performed for purely cosmetic reasons.
What possibly would be considered offensive about that?
If I said that someone got a nose job for cosmetic reasons, how could that be considered offensive?
and that a good many people would, in fact, be completely turned off by the sight of one that wasn't
That's my opinion, and if I'm wrong, then I'm wrong.
If what makes that offensive is that I'm implying that many people are so shallow that the sight of an uncircumcised penis would turn them off, my apologies.

Who does that offend?
Seems to me that that is
my problem, not my partner's.
Nothing for her to be offended about; at least no more so than if I was turned off by any other aspect of her sexuality, such as technique, for example.
First off, I love it when MEN have such strong opinions about how they think uncut penises are "unsightly" - as if they think cut penises are more pleasant to look at. :p
I'm giving you an opinion based on what I believe that some, many, or most American women think.
I think that there are women to whom it would make no difference, and they would have relations with a man if he were circumcised or not, if that was a man with whom they wished to have relations, and that there are women who would care.
I suspect that there are
not women who prefer an uncircumcised male, but if there are, they would not reject one who was.
But I also suspect that there are women who prefer that their male partner
is circumcosed, and
would reject one who wasn't.
Me personally? I couldn't care less. I have no interest whatsoever in looking at other men's penises.
So let's see... according to Plaw natural penises look a little ridiculous, are a problem, they need surgical alteration for cosmetic reasons, they are radically different, and, he's completely turned off by them.
Where did I say
any of that?
As I said, I couldn't care less.
