Foreskin Man Comic Book Takes on Male Circumcision



As comic book fans from around the world descend on this sun-drenched city to attend the 41st annual Comic-Con, San Diego's own MGMbill.org has launched a new 8-page comic book entitled Foreskin Man. The comic spins the fictional tale of an intactivist superhero who attempts to rescue a young boy from being circumcised by his arch enemy Dr. Mutilator.

When not protecting children from dangerous circumcisers, Foreskin Man assumes his secret identity of Miles Hastwick, a former corporate scientist who runs the newly opened Museum of Genital Integrity. The museum's opening exhibit is a full size replica of an American style infant circumcision - something so lifelike that even the museum's supporters have a difficult time looking at it.

Foreskin Man #1 is written and created by Matthew Hess, who is president of MGMbill.org. The group is pushing to enact U.S. legislation that would protect boys from forced circumcision the same way that girls are protected.

"The Foreskin Man comic book uses popular art to shine a spotlight on the practice of infant circumcision," said Hess. "Over the years there have been a lot of rationalizations and justifications to keep it going, but the bottom line is that forced circumcision violates human rights. I hope this story will help convince some people of that in a way that words alone cannot."

Although Hess wrote the story in Foreskin Man #1 himself, he had the artwork commissioned to give it a professional comic book feel.

"I've been a fan of comic books since before I could even read the words in them, so I wanted the art to be at least as good as the story," said Hess. "I'm very happy with how it came out, and I hope readers enjoy it."

Foreskin Man #1 is available to read and download for free at www.foreskinman.com. Printed copies may also be purchased online, or by ordering through a local comic book store.

I had sex with a guy who was uncut and a guy who was cut. The guy who was cut lasted longer than the uncut, hence my preference. Mind you, the uncut guy was my first and maybe that's not fair to him. Maybe my pussy was so tight that he came super fast each time we had sex.

surferxchris Re: cut or uncut22nd-Jul-2010 08:42 pm (UTC)
Fine either way, I do enjoy an uncut penis though. I think they are generally nicer to look at. Apparently this an unpop opinion for a straight girl to have.
insaynejayne Re: cut or uncut22nd-Jul-2010 08:42 pm (UTC)
uncut

Penis is ugly to begin with so... dunno why uncut is grotesque to some people.

taecish Re: cut or uncut22nd-Jul-2010 09:37 pm (UTC)
uncut. i hate how can you see where the mutilation occured on cut cocks and i am european so it's all abnormal and gross to me ok
madskellig Re: cut or uncut22nd-Jul-2010 09:42 pm (UTC)
Uncut is the norm here so that's what I'm used to and that's what I like. I really don't understand why it grosses people out.

I've never seen a cut penis in person, but I'm sure it wouldn't bother me.
fruitariyum Re: cut or uncut22nd-Jul-2010 09:45 pm (UTC)
A DICK IS A DICK. JUST MAKE SURE IT DOESN'T SMELL/TASTE RANK AND YOU'RE IN BUSINESS.
invisible_cunt Re: cut or uncut22nd-Jul-2010 10:24 pm (UTC)
cut.
i've only been with one uncut and i could barely stand to look at it
it was so fucking nasty.
trendreject Re: cut or uncut22nd-Jul-2010 10:37 pm (UTC)
Cut. I think it's because before I ever even saw a penis someone told me about "dick cheese" so I've been traumatized since.
iluvdykes Re: cut or uncut22nd-Jul-2010 10:39 pm (UTC)
CUT!!!
bleedingspade Re: cut or uncut22nd-Jul-2010 11:03 pm (UTC)
uncut he doesn't complain about using condoms he can feel it.

as far as I've learned cutting is really unnecessary.
_cute2boot Re: cut or uncut22nd-Jul-2010 11:04 pm (UTC)
after much field experience i only came across (no pun intended) an uncut dude last month. i had to ask him for tips and tricks, haha. i did fine though. i prefer cut.
notalicious Re: cut or uncut22nd-Jul-2010 11:16 pm (UTC)
uncut. i like how they taste (not because of cheese, the one i blew kept it clean).

cut cocks taste only like skin.
kaelstra Re: cut or uncut22nd-Jul-2010 11:35 pm (UTC)
I've been with both, I don't really have a strong preference either way. I mean, dick looks silly no matter what, lol.
akasha6915 Re: cut or uncut23rd-Jul-2010 02:21 am (UTC)
Either, it really doesn;t matter. Been with mostly cut guys, but with uncut it makes it easier giving a hand job and lube not being needed.

If I am having kids, I don't plan on cutting them, they can choose how they wish to mutilated their bodies.
thevml Re: cut or uncut23rd-Jul-2010 05:51 am (UTC)
Cut. I think it looks better naked than with ugly clothing.

Haha that's awesome, it sucks I got cut. Girls of ONTD don't do it to your babies.
thekidwholived 22nd-Jul-2010 08:41 pm (UTC)
Shane from Weeds convinced me to not do it to my non-existent male children.
tyffi 22nd-Jul-2010 08:53 pm (UTC)
Promised.
Cut looks nicer, tbh, but what do I care what the penis of my future son looks like?
_mo_mhile_gra_ 22nd-Jul-2010 09:01 pm (UTC)
I'm glad I didn't do that to my son. I figure it's his decision to make when he's older.

___discotracks 22nd-Jul-2010 10:45 pm (UTC)
I don't think I will circumcise my son. my boyfriend is cut but has a scar from it which he's pretty insecure about. plus, most infants are usually not given any sort of pain medication or sedation unless it's lidocaine which burns anyway during the procedure. the physicians at the children's hospital near me actually do the procedure in the newborn nursery and it's awful to hear those babies scream their lungs out. plus it looks so red and horrible afterward, I felt so bad. :/
aprilfunk 22nd-Jul-2010 08:34 pm (UTC)
... what? Why?
williamblair 22nd-Jul-2010 08:37 pm (UTC)
Cause circumcision sucks and it's cool someone is speaking out against it.
minalskare 22nd-Jul-2010 09:06 pm (UTC)
This.
I'm all for people doing whatever they want but it's alarming how many people think circumcision is necessary.

WTF is this shit? Foreskin is gross anyway ughh
niimaa 23rd-Jul-2010 01:47 am (UTC)
it's not mutilation; especially when it can save men from STDs and a whole host of urinary problems.

and there is no way in fucking hell that circumcision is the same as cliterectomy. circumcision is not about killing all sensation on male genitals to deny men sexual pleasure.
kaelstra 22nd-Jul-2010 11:36 pm (UTC)
That's like someone saying clitoral hoods are gross.
chrissyc13 22nd-Jul-2010 08:37 pm (UTC)
I worked at a place that held support group meetings for men that were circumcised and apparently either wanted it back or felt so violated that they needed a group?
williamblair 22nd-Jul-2010 08:39 pm (UTC)
There's a community for men who spend years trying to get it back keep_on_tugging and tbh I've read more posts in that community than I'd care to admit.
chrissyc13 22nd-Jul-2010 08:47 pm (UTC)
I never picked up a pamphlet or peeked in on any meetings but I was always curious what it was all about.
