male circumcision encouraged. they both do the same thing, they remove a part of our pleasure. Why are they viewed so differently. Women still can have orgasms without their clit.

I've heard that some scientists found that the appendix was used for digesting things such as hair and bone (because cavemen and the like would just be like BLARGRAGHGRAGH on their food, I'd assume), but because we don't relaly eat those things anymore, it's lost it's use.
But you can't compare a vestigle organ like the appendix to foreskin. Foreskin is there for a reason. It protects the head of your penis and prevents it from drying out, and becoming calloused. With the foreskin cut off, the head will dry out, losing sensitivity, combined with even more sensitivity loss from the nerves that the foreskin had.
It's like wearing socks compared to going barefoot everywhere, sorta. The barefoot person will have rough, calloused feet and won't feel the ground too much. The one with socks, if he took the socks off, would feel every little thing.
There really is no reason to continue male circumcision. Showering daily reduces any risk of smegma to zero, and anyone who says "lol uncut penises are icky" is just a fucking moron, because they both look almost exactly the same when erect except for a small bit of rolled up skin under the head. And that's really the only time when it matters.
