There's another reason not to do it: there is no way to know how much

the
individual's penis will grow at puberty. The doctor will remove what

looks
like the right amount, but when the boy grows into a man, his penis

can
grow
larger than what the remaining skin can accommodate. Such boys may

wake
in
the mornings with their sheets bloody, because the skin of the penis

has
torn in the night.


This is simply not true.


Odd. I've talked to men for whom it was true. And traumatic. And
horrifying.


It is not possible. The tissue that is removed in the circ is not the tissue
that expands to cover the erect penis.
