For context, I’m circumcised and expecting a son and my wife and I are torn about the circ. We’re American so from a cultural standpoint circumcision is the default choice. Thing is, there’s no real benefit besides practicing a religion we don’t believe in, and I’m uncomfortable about cutting the tip of my son’s dick off.
On the other side, I’ve met a guy who was bullied in high school so bad for it he got a circ as an adult. Apparently crazy painful recovery. I’ve also talked to women who are generally grossed out by uncircumcised men. I don’t want to make him feel like something’s wrong with him his whole life because I was uncomfortable with the idea.
From a moral standpoint I’m against it, but from a social and cultural standpoint I feel like I should do it? It’s a crappy situation. If there’s any uncircumcised American men who want to talk about their penis I’m all ears.
Edit: I really appreciate everyone’s responses I never expected to hear from so many people. With the decision hinging on social and cultural norms it’s been really helpful to be able to take the temperature like this. I obviously need to talk to my wife, but given the overwhelming support of dick hats I don’t thing we’re going to do it. Thanks, lemmings!
No, but look up proper maintenance if you decide not to. It requires additional cleaning considerations
It doesn’t. Source: The rest of the world.
Seriously, cleaning is pretty fucking easy even without having your dick chopped up.
Bit of a harsh way to put it but yea it’s not difficult. Pull the foreskin back, clean it along with the rest of the dick.

To all the down voters I have one it does require additional maintenance that is not talked about. People need to be taught how to clean their bodies especially kids. It’s the same reason you check if your kids brushed their teeth right or if they wash their hair properly when they are first learning to shower. As a parent you should know how to take care of your child, so they in turn know as well
For extra info of some of the differences look up preputial separation. This process does not happen all at once, and can create difficulties cleaning before this occurs.
