http://whatimmissing.blogspot.com/2011/06/what-im-missing-part-4.html
There are a lot of misconceptions about circumcision. This blog addresses one: "He'll never know what he's missing.". Friday, June 17, 2011. Part 4, Animated feature.

There are a lot of misconceptions about circumcision. This blog addresses one: "He'll never know what he's missing.". Thursday, September 22, 2011. Part 29, Ignorance. My friend OtherKurt, one of a handful of other Kurt's I've known in my life, at the age of 27, didn't know that he was circumcised. Here's how he found out that he was:. Now at this point in my life—I was 27, same age as OtherKurt—I think I had only ever discussed my negative feelings. Anyway, I didn't know how to respond to this consumeri...

Spokesdog Ladybug debunks the hygiene argument. Good news. I tracked down a copy of Ed Wallerstein's book, Circumcision: An American Health Fallacy. I guess it's just as well I didn't find it right away. I got a lot of positive feedback about my digression into the events surrounding Disco Demolition Night. So Steve moved around, but I alw...

I've always been more of a glam rocker. This was going to be an in-depth analysis of Ed Wallerstein's book Circumcision: An American Health Fallacy. But it appears that the only copy of it at my library has been misshelved. Therefore this will be a post about the death of Disco. Then the cops just started busting people for no reason at...

And you never know how long the game is going to last. Me, I'm a bargainer. I think Bargaining is my Marvin Gardens. (I read in Sidney Harris' column years ago that Marvin Gardens i...Of co...

There are a lot of misconceptions about circumcision. This blog addresses one: "He'll never know what he's missing.". Sunday, July 31, 2011. Part 24, The Jews. A fortuitous library book sale find. Until that night, sitting there drinking BEER on the couch in B.'s dorm, the closest thing to an explanation I'd heard for the 90 percent circumcision rate among my American-born peers was a vague insinuation that my mother had made. You know why we're all circumcised, right? Of course I didn’t know why w...

Remember generic products? And he pulls out a six pack of white aluminum cans, and on each can is printed in big black letters "BEER.". All that year, me and B&...

We all had to do reports on the states. You know, pick a state, and write a report about it. Any state you wanted. Sounds like a great project, right? There had to be a catch, right? Yeah, you got that right. No writing about California. Makes sense, right? That was our home state. So that’s what I did. What a gl...
