Possibly, Liz. However, the info comes from a site I found that addressed the issue. The site seems to have been started and is maintained by uncircumcised men. Just reporting what I read. Didn't mean to offend you--or anyone else for that matter.

I thought the Mudcat had covered all imaginable topics, proper or not, but this is, um, new territory for me. I do recall Henry Miller in some book I read in my teens mentioning a sighting under conditions such as those described above, but he didn't start a conversation about it, having both his minds on other things.

I guess that if you've a funny-coloured anus when it's clean,
you'd want to have it bleached so that any sexual partner doesn't
start a conversation about it when you are in the midst of something
interesting.

I'm not sure whether that remark should simply stand on its own as the most absurd one-liner I've ever had the pleasure to read here at Mudcat, or if I should write a small script to demonstrate the sort of sexual encounter between two partners in an apparently well-lit room, deep in the throes of passion, when one remarks to the other about the color of their asshole. Do you think HBO could do something with it?

Well most of the circumcised ones I met were when I was young (and so were they) and in more recent, maturer times they've mostly been uncircumcised, so it's hard to tell if it's true about lasting longer, since experience also has a lot to do with that too....

Other than the religious aspect of circumcision, there was thought at one time that the circumcised penis was 'healthier'; that is, easier to keep clean, etc. It is easier to keep clean, but any guy who cares about his cleanliness will draw back the foreskin when he showers or bathes and wash himself. Conventional wisdom is not always wise.

One aspect of the difference that people have not addressed is the ability of a person with an uncircumcised penis to last longer during coitus--that is, to ejaculate less quickly. That is due to the foreskin covering the glans penis (the cap or head) and thus preventing the degree of friction that a circumcised penis would experience. However, other literature demonstrates that that can be overcome (hehehe) by mental control and the importance of the female's experience to the male involved. IMO, of course.

I've been a long time actually joining this discussion. I've seen and er...experienced....both types (all types??) and don't have a preference either. Don't think it makes any difference to sexual activity. Shaved bits however.....surely once they start to grow back the stubble is bloody scratchy for one's partner?

The thing about being circumsized (or not) is that you'll never know whrther or not anything would feel any different the other way. Unless, of course, you got circumsized as an adult, which wouldn't feel very good at all, I wouldn't imagine.

Nads is washable so the fabric is reused. Nads is basically sugar, honey, molasses, every sticky thing you can think of, cooked together into a product with the viscosity of strawberry jam (and it gets thicker as it ages, in the same way as honey crystalizes, but still works great). How is hot wax different?

I couldn't subject a son to circumcision any more than I could subject a daughter to it.

Great! WYSIWYG and Shambles have appointed themselves Arbiters of Elegance (look it up) in the Chat where I have never seen either one of them.

Now we'll have to change the entire format. Those of you who insist on having intelligent discussions on serious topics are forthwith ordered to keep your comments to "quip" length and all threads resulting from discussions in the Chat are now banned. Will someone add this to the permanent Facts thread?

And to newer members: Get used to it. Part of the expectations here is that you will occasionally be subjected to know-it-all pontificating from those who really don't know it all.

I hate to break it to the newer members, but there are actually a few community expectations here, and I'm sure I'm not the only one who recalls a time when most members not only knew them but respected them.

~Susan

Certain long-term members have done exactly as they wished and have never respected any community expectations here. Sadly they have set this example and incited everyone else to follow.

Chatrooms are for short one-line stuff - based on WHO is saying something. The discussion forum (yes even the B/S section) are about WHAT is being said. It is possible to still be humourous in both areas but still respect the difference between them.

Pubic wasn't a missprint. I don't know why I should be surprised to see this.
Many years ago, the little paper I was writing for was taken over by a British firm. I was told to write up Christenings.
Which was fine for the Catholics and Episcopalians in my area, but not so good for the Swedenborgians, and then there was the very large Jewish population.
I finally asked my airhead editor if she wanted me to do brises too. (A bris being the Jewish circumcision rite.) She said, brightly, "Well, I guess they had baptism back in Bible times too."
I did not do brises.

And as for who should not be a-skin' Bruce, a roundhead feels at home being all askin. and a cavalier feels it has, well, drawbacks, so to speak.

But why either category should constitute a barrier to entry, in social circles of the most revered -- if most horizontal -- sort , well, I don't understand that at all.

Well, one kind is the kind who fails to realize how imitative Mudcat can be when some dickheads start trying to imitate or outdo other dickheads.... the kind who don't realize when they are at the top of a real slippery slope.... the kind who confuse intent with effect... the kind who would rather defend than think. In general I think the saddest decline of the Mudcat community has been the defensiveness-- swinging back when they perceive someone is taking them to task personally (who failed to read the puerility and actual intent of their minds).

It's a Chatroom...not a Confessional. If your going to chat about subjects that you rather other Folks won't hear about... PM (that is the confidential bit of this Forum?)or pick up the Telephone, compose an email, or write a Letter...


A chatroom is a private conversation??? eh...what's happening here on the Mudcat BS....between posters with mouths and brains like open sewers and Folks getting really pissy with each other......a lot of stuff is getting taken way too seriously and blown completely out of proportion and other things that merit an angry reaction are being ignored!!!

Is there a new rule ...Please leave your sense of Humor behind before entering the BS section or the Chatroom

(and there's me that only recently found out how to actually get into Chat... to chat, to have a friendly exchange, perchance a giggle or two.... certainly not my place of choice to hold a deeply personal, intimate, soul searching, confidential discussion!   ...$#****$$$***^^^%^%$#@!^&*)

WYZYWYG, no one who was in the chat room made any objection whatsoever. No names have been posted, though three of us have come on here under our own names and said we were there and it was all a laugh. What on earth are you going on about? It's certainly a far cry from >>popping in now and then to see who's getting raunchy with whom and report that out to various spouses...employers....>> No one has been hurt by this because no one has been mentioned. Not only that, but there is nothing in it to hurt anyone, unlike the idea of sneaking to spouses etc to report things said in the chat room. Though no one with any sense at all would say things in the chat room that their spouses would object to anyway!

Okay, since somebody opened the playroom window and that awful stench seems to have drifted outdoors, I'll play now.

I'm pretty sure lion poo is an excellent rodent repellent. When's the last time you saw a mouse try to crawl up a lion's ass?

Now, if someone will explain the principle question asked in the opening thread, I'll try to come up with a witty response. I'm assuming "WTF?" no longer qualifies as witty.

Perhaps you need to go and lie down in a darkened chat room?

It is/was a joke Susan: what DO you think we were voting on? To reveal the name and status of individuals' foreskins? Hardly, as it was a majority female vote from a majority female room ... in pursuit of (salacious and daft) knowledge to add to the fund of knowledge about "members" e.g. how many catters have cats/ dogs/ play cover versions/ vote Republican/ run around nekkid and howl at the full moon?

Screwing third parties was only mentioned obliquely - vis "Centres of Continuing Education" as part of the Pubic Information Service. I assume you don't mean literally?

well, as a party to the original Chatroom discussion, and therefore a vote FOR the person above to post it.
I thought (and still think) that this thread is
1 less offensive and controversial than some threads I have seen recently
2 an amusing addition to the BS around here
3 an opportunity for the very witty and punny Mudcatters to let their imaginations run riot.
4 and after all Rule One for BS threads,
if you dont like/are offended by a thread,
DON'T POST to it or read it!!!

I remember the stuff we talked about at night in the dormitory corridors was not necessarily the stuff we wanted to talk over at breakfast the next day. In fact, none of us had the bad taste to try it.
It's amazing what some people think is fun. Looks like you just had to be there.
As G,GFTCR has found out, one can't tell the difference between being nominated and being anointed, and being anonymous adds nothing to one's credibility.

Is there about to be another altercation.....this one between the chatters and non-chatters? How in the name of gawd do we take such simple and fun stuff and jam-pack it with rules?

Everybody step back a few paces and breathe deeply............Now take a good look at this thread................If you aren't now convulsed in laughter, repeat the process until you are.

I must confess. Although I did NOT start this thread, it is all my fault.

Whilst in the chat room last night, I was also watching a programme on TV called 'Life before birth' (sort of Womb with a View), and happened to partake a couple of choice details from the programme, in the interests of general education, on the grounds that a) a day you've learnt something new is a day not wasted and b) it might engender some amusing remarks.

It did indeed engender some amusing remarks in the chat. It also regressed back to the origins of the item discussed, which lead to the detailed and light-hearted discussion of 'roundheads or cavalliers' which was indulged in by members of both sexes who were in the chat room at the time.

I'm sorry. It's my fault.

It's also my understanding that either style makes no difference to hygiene, that entirely depends on the owner.

Good grief!! I was one of the ones in the chat and it was all fun and a good laugh as always! When we talked about starting a thread about it, we thought that, Catters being the jolly, humorous people they are (we thought) we'd get some good witty comments. I've seen far nearer the knuckle threads than this started by some of the people who are decrying this one. It was done in a spirit of fun and I can see no reason why all you miseries are being so up your own...... Gosh GFTCR, I'm glad you did post as guest! We jokingly discussed 'outing' the person who was going to start the thread.....couldn't do it now...she might get her throat ripped out by men with no senses of humour! I'm truely disappointed in you all.

Love Lynne
PS Guest one who was there....I don't remember anyone who was there disagreeing with the idea of starting this thread.

Never can tell when yer gonna step in shit around here, huh?

Mudcat Dynamics 101: The general tone of responses to a thread topic is established by the first respondent. If the initial response is lighthearted and favorable, then subsequent responses will be likewise. If the initial response is unfavorable, then the thread-starter is automatically an outcast and a moron and the bite of that first respondent will start a feeding frenzy that makes a school of blue sharks look like a buncha pikers.

If you were asked to do it, you should have said so at the outset. I hate to break it to the newer members, but there are actually a few community expectations here, and I'm sure I'm not the only one who recalls a time when most members not only knew them but respected them.

1) I don't consider that EVERYTHING is sacrosanct - the basic topics discussed in the chat room MAY be grist for the mill in starting a BS thread. Some degree of discretion IS needed, though - and at least no-one was named.

2) If you are going to play as per 1) above however, pretending that you are anonymous when those who WERE in the chat can pretty well tell who you are is gutless - at least have the courage to identify yourself.

3) There are no GUESTS in the chat room - everyone is a member. I wasn't there, but I can narrow down my guesses as to who this alleged GUEST is to a handful - which may or may not be correct, and also smears all those suspects who are not guilty.

I think most people would rather their Chat chat was kept in the Chat room-- not characterized, quoted, or reacted to in the threads. Like PMs, what happens there ought really to stay there. That's why it's THERE.

Spring is in the air - the sap is rising - and the Cat Chat Room is pondering on matters of deep significance.

Apparently
"Most Aussie men are" ... "Nearly all US men are", But
some would "swear that men never compare" ... Some
have "only ever seen one in [their] life";

Equally, some knew they'd "only seen one sort, but weren't sure which it was..."
Some have conducted unsuccessful field trials to gather empirical data; and some have seen baby ones but never grown up ones ...
While others have established that all the men they've slept with were...(but: before, during, or after was not established)

Obviously, this is question is of deep and abiding cultural significance and interest - at least to a Chat room full of female catters ..

So, which are you - Roundhead or Cavalier?

(Then we went on to enigmatically discuss the efficacy of lion poo as a rodent repellent and budding daffodils - I think?)
