Two annoying girls moved into the apartment above me.
I'm forced to hear every dumb thing they say.
These are my letters to them.

“You wanna know what’s worse than a mushy banana?” Let me guess, an uncircumcised– “An uncircumcised penis.” I know you so well.

I don’t understand why an uncircumcised penis is so “gross”
Ditto.
The reason you don’t understand is because the reasoning these girls use is most likely completely irrational.
I’m guessing it has more to do with hygiene. An uncircumcised penis requires more maintenance, lol.
It’s definitely the hygiene issue. Think about where exactly the appendage is going. IT NEEDS TO BE CLEAN!
I agree with it being hygiene thing, HOWEVER I see no problem with men being encouraged to bath more often. Especially those part of the 25 and under set that haven’t quite grasped the concept of soap yet.
I don’t see the reason either. I don’t see them as disgusting.
Nothing’s worse than a mushy banana. Maybe soggy bread, but that’s about it.
Soggy socks. Also, torture.
A mushy apple. Imagine having it in your backpack for lunch, thinking about eating it in chemistry class, but to your horror, discover the apple is bad during lunch.
I just you have never worn a wet bra or wet panties. Let me tell you. It’s not fun.
I have. Wet socks are worse. Wet socks are like death … in sock form.
I’ve had wet socks before. And they are horrible but I think wet panties and a wet bra are worse. Especially the panties.
An uncircumcised penis IS gross. I’m with the girls on this one.
Why? I just want to know?
Hi Daniel,
I cannot speak for all the ladies (or all uncircumcised men) but in my opinion they are gross because of the potential for “stuff” to collect in the flap and folds. It takes a meticulous man to keep those areas clean and some barely stay in the shower long enough to hit the larger money spots let alone do the fine detail work.
I gotta agree. The chance for infection is actually much higher with an uncircumcised penis.
A woman has more folds to worry about and my experience is that they are only slightly more hygienic.
Any man that carries out a proper regime of cleaning is of roughly equivalent likelihood of getting an infection, circumcised or not.
These days, circumcision is usually done to satisfy the religious beliefs or other whims of the parents and rarely serves any medical function.
Touchy subject for you, eh bob? Yes, some women get yeast infections all the time. I was not comparing men to women. An uncircumcised penis is more likely to get infected than a circumcised one. Also, there are cases where the foreskin doesn’t grow as a boy becomes an adult, and the penis must be circumcised later in life.
Plus, an uncircumcised penis just looks gross. I’m a girl, and from my experience, I just think like a circumcised penis looks much more appealing.
Three cheers for my meticulous man!
yea, im a guy but im circumcised, uncircumcised penises are just plain gross, moms have to clean it when your a baby, but they would have to….play with it to make u hard. yea and then it would be easier because it would be hard
They’re not gross, they look like sea cucumbers… or fraggles… Just imagine Fraggle Rock playing in the background.
I sincerely hope the men I’m with for the rest of my life are circumcised now. I’m never going to be able to see an uncircumcised penis again without singing the Fraggle Rock Theme Song.
Terrible terrible parody concept there. ;P
I disagree, mushy bananas are WAY worse. I refuse to eat a banana unless it’s slightly green.
…hmm what about a green uncircumcised penis? :0)
I’m not a fan of soggy bread either…
Then maybe you shouldn’t make me cook anymore….
Ginny, I told you that you have to make him think that he wants to cook. I have so much left to teach you.

Is that wand circumcised?

I think that you should try to yell responses to their questions at some point. They’d probably think there were ghosts in the walls haha
oh my, that’s hilarious. xD from what i see, they’d probably be too dumb to figure out it was just him.
It would be hilarious. But if there is even a slight chance that they could figure it out, and I admit that it the chance is very very slight, Charlie shouldn’t risk it. Because what would we all do without this website?
Or even better, you could pretend to be a psychic. You know, saying what they’re thinking. I mean you know them well enough, Charlie.
hrmmm but mushy bananas lead to banana bread/muffins
Oh! Yes!
I have a great recipe from a Sesame Street book “Bid Bird’s Banana Bread”
The instructions tell you to get an adult like Mr. Hooper to turn on the stove…
I also disagree with the girls above Charlie.
YAAAY! for sesame street! :)
I think I have the same book. =)
Also, for the record, uncircumsized penii look like anteaters and kinda freak me out.
XD hahahahahaha
I don’t understand what the big deal is with an uncircumcised penis. I personally enjoy them, it’s a turn on. :)
Ditto!
same – I don’t understand what the big deal with circumcision is. Personally I think it doesn’t look nearly as good as an uncircumcised man and if a man has even a basic sense of hygiene he should be able to keep it clean! Its not that hard, and medically there arn’t really many benefits any more…. tbh I don’t really care much either way :)
Didn’t you say in an earlier post that they didn’t know the word “circumcised” was? They called it “cirque du soleil” … Carlie, are you starting to actually correct them to their face?
I’m just going to throw it out there.. there is no such thing as an attractive penis. Or a good mushy banana.
If they’re talking about penises does that mean the ban on men in the apartment is over? Or is this a typical conversation topic for them?
Look! it’s wearing a hoody!!
Okay… is there a big deal about circumcise/uncircumcised? I’ve “dealt with” both… and, personally, I think lack of mushiness is more important. *grin*
Personally, I have no real preference for cut or uncut penises, but I do think that it’s unethical to circumcise babies because they can’t consent to it. For the record, I’m female. :]
I agree. I am 100% against genital mutilation. A child that cannot a make an informed decision, should not be circumcised.

An uncircumsised penis is not gross just not as nice to look at it, and let’s face it ladies-sometimes we’re down there and have to take a look. What is gross is that women are sleeping with men who get infections on their penis. He doesn’t have an infection because of his uncircumsised penis, he has an infection because he is nasty and doesn’t take the time to properly clean himself and if you are sleeping with someone like that it makes you nasty, as well.

I just ran across this blog the other day and in the past two days I’ve read every page of it! This is hilarious!
real men get their penis circumcised
real men don’t hide behind the name chuck norris
my name really is Charles Norris
Just like my name is really Harry Porter :L
I disagree, I’ve seen an attractive penis…and it was uncircumcised >_>
Come on girls, don’t you know that uncircumcised is better? More skin slipping and sliding around inside you, more friction. Feels so much better.
Harry Potter is the greatest.
I agree ;)
Come chill with me sometime :)
And by the way, my penis is circumcised ;)
AHEM.
Holy Shit. I love you Ginny <3
That’s what I thought.
I love you too, dear.
My son isn’t circumcised. Needless to say I’ve done the right thing. Why should boys be punish by circumcision, and girls aren’t?? Sound fair? The wholy reason was to punish boys for future masturbations. There is a history how this got started, and it wasn’t by religious reasons.
Girls are punished with periods. Duh.
If only these girls knew what a massive can of worms they were opening with their… musings. Charlie, what have you unleashed!
After foolishly putting this under the wrong post, I would like to add:
I fully disagree. Circumcision was historically done because people in general weren’t as ape-shit with the showers and cleaning as we are now, and the invagination of skin in the uncircumcised penis is a great place to collect “stuff.” The vagina, on the other hand, does not actually have blind pouches, just folds.
On top of that, uncircumcised boys can get more infections, a build up in the glands around the penis head, and if the tip doesn’t come out enough, they can get adhesions to the tip that require circumcision at an older age that will traumatize them more (I’ve never heard of men needing trauma therapy for their circumcision). On top of that, the skin that is removed with circumcision can get too tight, and instead of being able to slide on and off of the tip with ease, can get stuck down and literally inhibit the tip of the penis from getting enough blood flow, causing that tissue to die.
Female and male circumcision are COMPLETELY different from my perspective. Male circumcision is done to keep the male more hygienic and prevent further penis injuries, which I think every non-lesbian can get behind.
Female circumcision was ONLY done to keep the female from attaining orgasm, something that NEVER occurs with male circumcision.
I don’t think it’s a problem for parents to choose for their kids any more than choosing to have little kids get their ears pierced or parents to choose the name they will (usually) spend the rest of their lives with (unless they want to pay to change their name).
Now, away from my pedestal of self-righteous knowledge… I (still) love this website!
I agree with you except for where you said “female circumcision WAS only done…”
Female genital mutilation is alive and well in many parts of Africa and the Middle East. If anyone ever tries to tell you that circumcision of male babies is the same as FGM, laugh at them and then tell them to do their research. It’s a horrible ordeal that scars young girls physically for life and leads to many, many health problems.
Oh come on it’s not the stone age. Yes circumcision makes it easier for boys to be more hygienic. But really it’s a 5 second difference in between washing, or pulling the skin back and washing.
jdt did you know that circumcision actually reduces male sensitivity in that area. The tip has to callus a little bit when circumcised to deal with being rubbed against clothing. And the issues you mentioned are incredibly rare. And the real reason the vagina isn’t constantly infected is because it is incredibly acidic, and very difficult for microorganisms to survive there. I still say being with an uncircumcised male is so much better. And I still say its incredibly cruel to put a young newborn male through that pain. And yes, it does hurt the baby. What mother would mutilate her child and cause him so much pain when he is only a few days old.
Kira, I don’t care who or what you like sex with & I don’t know that it plays a large role in the issue.
Infections & problems with foreskin may be rare, but common enough that I would want to save my child any issues.
I still maintain that male circumcision is on par with kids getting their ears pierced, & while there may be some desensitization due to clothing rubbing, I don’t believe many men experience issues with being underly sensitive & that interfering with their sex life.
I’d rather teach my son to wash himself than disfigure him for life.
For the record, I’m against getting a baby’s ears pierced, too. My mom didn’t get my ears pierced because she wanted it to be my choice, and I didn’t do it until I was 19.
I don’t consider ear piercing and circumcision to be comparable AT ALL, though. Piercings are only really semi-permanent, as you could always take the earring out and let the piercing heal. It will probably leave a scar, though. Circumcision, however, removes a part of the natural anatomy permanently, causing a drastic decrease in sensation that you can never get back. Comparing the two is absolutely ridiculous, but I’m still against both! A person’s body should always be their own business.
For the record, I read bushy banana.
I read this while eating a mushy banana, now I feel much better about it, thanks.
We can argue all day about the medical pros and cons when it comes to circumcision, but really, it comes down to one fact: uncircumcised penises are just uglier.
That’s it.
And the fact that they tend to smell a little… well, less pleasingly shall we say….
I don’t think it’s ugly at all, and I also don’t think my boyfriend’s uncut penis smells the least bit unpleasant. Maybe you’ve been with some really dirty guys. XD
just gonna throw this out there…
Since the baby boy is so young, he wouldn’t remember a thing. not the pain or anything. & if he’s circumcised when he’s a baby then when he’s older he won’t know anything different so it won’t matter that he’s little less sensitive down there.
My own personal opinion is that it doesn’t really matter. Different people like different things. You make do with what’s been given to you, so if a man was circumcised as a child that’s it, he’s circumcised & there’s no point in making a big deal out of it. If he’s uncircumcised, it’s his choice whether to go through a ton of pain so as to not have to deal with any extra time in the shower or just leave it how he’s had it all his life.
My goodness this whole discussion is extremely asinine.
The discussion is not asinine. People should not be making decisions about other people’s bodies. If people gave babies nose jobs, they wouldn’t remember the pain or know the difference, either, but does that make it right ?
And for the record, I DO know men who wish they weren’t circumcised and are angry about it.
There are also risky and painful techniques to regrow foreskin: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Foreskin_restoration
Why would anyone do something to their infant’s body that serves no real purpose, deprives them of pleasure that they might otherwise have, and they may resent?
Okay, Just putting this out there.
Many families have their own views and reasons to circumsize their child, and whatever it is, IT IS THEIR OWN BUISNESS. Everyone is allowed to have an opinion and frankly, everyone can be right.
I found that having any sort of bodily “alterations” let’s say, are better done at a young age BECAUSE they don’t remember. If a male was forces to have a circumcision later in life, it would be more painful, and I know a few guys who said that they wish they had been circumcised at birth.
Like I already said, everyone has different opinions and what you think is great for you (as long as you’re not lying to yourself)and EVERY SINGLE PERSON IS DIFFERENT. Just because you disagree with someone doesn’t make them wrong and it doesn’t make you better than them.
It should be a man’s business whether he wants to be circumcised, not his parents. It may be painful to be circumcised later, but it’s possible. It’s much harder and more dangerous to regrow foreskin.
Unless it’s medically necessary, which is rare, it’s cosmetic surgery and should be treated as such.
commentssss
Hoh, Good job on the writing for us what the Serious DEAL is.
having an uncircumcised penis is no different than a girl’s swampy vagina. sure, uncut guys may have stuff collect sometimes, but girls….theres way more places to collect stuff down there, and ya’ll dont grasp that fact.
