> [@](#): > > A COUPLE OF months ago, Stowell filed a civil suit claiming that Good Samaritan Hospital in West Islip, N.Y., permanently deprived him and his future bedmates of “the pleasure of natural, normal sexual intercourse” thanks to an “excruciating” 10-minute procedure it conducted on him moments after birth. > You may have heard of this procedure. It’s called circumcision. \ > “I’m being deprived of my birthright,” Stowell told me. “Studies show that I would be enjoying it more and my partners would be enjoying it more.

Zette, that post and quote is SO full of double entendres. \ 😃 “… in the back of my head.” _Which_ head? 😉 There is of course the distinct possibility that this deluded man **is** JDT. ::shudder:: ---

Durst invoke the name Of evil Jack Dean Tyler? Curse your impudence! I’m with Coldfire. This Stowell character might just be a JDT sock-puppet. ---

Sock-puppet, or _cock_-puppet? This > [@](#): > > Foreskinologist Kristen O’Hara’s study of 139 women—all of whom had partaken of penises of both varieties … made me laugh out loud. How does one get to be a _foreskinologist_? Can you be granted a degree for having sufficient life experience, or do you actually have to complete the coursework? ---

Has anyone “partaken of the penis” lately? I’m with UncleBeer on the Foreskinologist, made me laugh out loud too. ---

If this Kristen O’Hara ever used her expertise to solve a crime, she’d be a… Forensic foreskinologist! Now someone please try to say that five times fast. 😃 ---

Hmm. Fundamentally, I foresee her future as the foremost freelance forensic foreskinologist, forsaking all foreknowledge of fornication for the free world’s forefathers. This post is, of course, foredoomed. Forgive me. ---

If such a case landed on my desk for defense, my reaction would be to first laugh until my teeth fell out and then to assure opposing counsel, with deadly seriousness, that as long as I had anything to say about it, his client would never, ever receive one fucking dime. Ridiculous cases simultaneously amuse me and piss me off. Kind of like the last guy I dated. ---

> [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by Mercutio \* > \*\*I thought we where not to utter those 3 vile letters, J-D-T! > > I feel so dirty. > I’m gonna go wash my foreskin. \*\* I WAS going to ask about the aforementioned person and why he evoked such strong sentiment. Then I decided not to be lazy and actually ran a search. OH MY DEAR NON-EXISTANT GODS!!! Never have I read such blatant psychopathy spewing forth from one person. Creepy. There have been times in my fairly short number of people that I called some folks on the carpet for what I thought were pretty erroneous points of view and fact. With one possible exception, I’ve never seen anything THIS bad, though. Thanks to this thread, I now have a new yardstick by which to measure “malodorous fuckit”. Yikes. ---

Hmmm…well, I did hear someone say that they can restore the foreskin-with some special device the skin will elongate or something? I’ll look it up. (That said, I still don’t believe in circumsizing babies, just because I don’t see a point.) [Next page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/memories-of-jdt-man-sues-for-circumcision/56199.md?page=2)
