Do circumcisions increase your penis size?!
Question:
Do circumcisions increase your penis size?
Answers:
Circumcision does not increase your penis size. In fact, one of the risks is getting a smaller penis if too much skin is removed (since it would be restricted). Dr. Greene describes that here:

In addition, it is now clinically proven that circumcision reduces sensitivity, pleasure, and makes masturbation more difficult. Oddly enough, that's how it was promoted in the United States at first, since masturbation was 'bad'. You can see the studies here:

Needless to say, circumcision is becoming a lot less popular. CNN, MSNBC and the major news outlets covered that a week ago. The United States remains the last advanced nation doing it to newborns, and even so, it's now as low as 14% in some states.

As far as STDs go, studies have found both ways. I personally think it varies on your sexual life, if you're with one partner and practice safe sex, you'll be fine. I mean, Europeans and Japanese are uncircumcised and they're not having an STD crisis. However, the United States is the nation with the highest circumcision rates in the industrialized world and we have the highest HIV/AIDS rates. That's using CIA statistics.
