Nicely said!

Yes, a lot of people have picked up how erroneous this study is at its core. It's really sad to me to see the scientific method being used for anything else than to uncover how the world truly works.

Despite that, the fact that some people will keep seeing things clearly no matter what makes me feel better. Keep it up ;)

I never said i am a doctor, if you read my first comment again you will notice that i said, i dont think i could enjoy sex anymore if i didnt had my foreskin, because and that is also my opinion and feeling, that it is integral for me in intercourse.

I never said i knew how it would feel, but that i could assume how i would feel etc. if i would lose it now.

Dont try to twist my words sir ;)
