what did I miss. Don't tell me you are going to make me read the whole thread.

There are pros and cons. New research says that babies experienced to intense pain in their first 6 months of life are less pain resistant later on in life. Yet there is the argument that foreskin can be used for a variety of medical research and use for burn victims.

Well I have no respect at all for you, you using, selfish, manipulative little cow so that's good.

Connor, listen to Uncle Horsie who has seen a bit more of life than you - she is just using you. She's keeping you on a string just in case things don't work out with hubby Then she'll expect you to bring up baby.

Wise up my friend - cut your ties with her. She is married. You have no place in her life. What would her husband think about this? Put yourself in his shoes - she's being unfaithful to him by maintaining links with you. It ain't right my friend.

She made her bed, let her lie in it. Think about what I am saying - put yourself in her husband's shoes

This woman is selfish and bad. She may be smart as you say, though I have seen no evidence, but its number one and the kid she'll will be looking out for - and hang the consequences for you or anyone else she can use.

This is not a troll. Find someone who will treat you right my friend, not screw you over as she obviously has.

WAKE UP my friend *slaps Connor vigorously*

Talk to your Mom about it. Ask her if she thinks its right you maintain links with a former girlfriend where "nothing is forbidden" when she is married to someone else

Got spare money?

So in this midlife crisis of yours you suddenly became a marriage counsellor?

At the height of your career at Poly, you could troll and crack most people up in the process. Now you're just trolling and annoying people and screwing with people's lives.

Just butt out of her marriage and her relationship with connor, it doesn't concern you.

I'd say go for cirumcision. My reason? Looks. Uncircumcised penises are gross looking. I'm circumcised, and I wouldn't have it any other way. Cosmetic reasons are valid excuses for inflicting pain. Some people get their infants' ears pierced. I've never met a girl who preferred an uncircumcised man. I'm going to get my sons circumcised.

Tired of ads?

nationalist, do you honestly believe most girls you're about to have sex with will tell you they prefer an uncircumcised penis when you're circumcised?

I appreciate that you like the look of the circumcised male penis, but the uncircumcised ones are hard to tell apart when it's actually erect.

And when it's not erect, uncircumcised penises look normal. It's the cut ones that are exposing areas that are supposed to be covered by skin.

The looks argument is bull, it's just what you're used to. That's obvious.

BTW, there hasn't been one gay/bi/female poster on here who said they prefer circumcised penises, but there has been the opposite. Is Apolyton just an isolated case?

Horse isn't trolling. He is familiar with the people, he's read the thread and made conclusions about the motives of some of the posters, somewhat as everyone has made conclusions about his motives...

I know nothing about these people, and I can't be arsed to read the whole thread to make my mind up. However, I can see Horse's POV re people who keep ex-SOs around in their life once they have moved on to others. It can be very bad news for all of the people in their life. I think that is what Horse is detecting and reacting to.

Is he right, or wrong? I don't have a clue cause i don't know these people.

Horse IS trolling, and he is certainly NOT familiar with the people. At the beginning of the thread he thought connor was the father.

Horse is drawing conclusions out of his ass and judging people based off very little information, which is why he should keep his mouth shut.

That doesn't have to do with anything at all. It's all context specific, which he doesn't have.

I've seen many people get divorced, perhaps I should go out and insult anyone who is involved in a marriage because I've seen those explode.

I don't think you need any more proof that he's trolling. Both tandee and her husband clearly expressed that they don't care for Horse's opinion, connor has expressed it earlier, and he still keeps at it. Simply amazing...

Thank you. That is my point of view. I happen to be old fashioned about these things. Its nothing personal actually.

And Connor is such a nice decent guy in a goofy sort of way. He deserves better.

Blech. Circumcised ones must get all nasty and dried out, and must be a lot more annoying to with them (which is of paramount importance )

Wow, damn happy I missed out on that flame-fest. I guess that Horse is making up for lost time in fulfilling his reputation as troll master, too bad he has to be so very endearing in doing so...

Yes, they have announced that Horse is unwelcome. He's said his piece. If he wishes to insist on them agreeing with him that thay are fools or sh*ts, that's on him.

However, there is a lot of context in this thread. I haven't read enough of it to grant myself license to make comments other than I have. Obviously, Horse feels he knows more. As I said, he could be wrong.

OTOH, what if he's right and said nothing? What would that say of him?

Hmm, lemme say again. He's not right. He doesn't know the facts. If you read the thread, you can see that quite plainly. As it is, you'll just have to trust me as one of the actual real people that he's talking about, when i say that . . . not even referring to his opinion, just on what he thinks he knows. . . he does NOT know the facts.

Maybe you should read this first:
