This morning, I was talking to a friend about the genital mutilation we both experienced as young children.
Genital mutilation: Noun. The cutting or excision of all or some of the genital organs.
Some people mutilate their genitals by choice. I say, good for them. Prince Albert piercings immediately come to mind.
But for some of us, choices about our genitals are made without our consent. This was the case for me. When I was a newborn, my parents made the decision to circumcise my penis. Circumcision is the surgical removal of the foreskin from the penis.
I’m not sure how or why my parents made that decision. But I do know that I wasn’t a part of it. If there was some conference call or meeting, I wasn’t invited. And I’m not sure why not, considering it’s my penis.
Back in 1999, the American Academy of Pediatrics reversed their position on foreskin, stating:
Existing scientific evidence demonstrates potential medical benefits of newborn male circumcision; however, these data are not sufficient to recommend routine neonatal circumcision. In circumstances in which there are potential benefits and risks, yet the procedure is not essential to the child’s current well-being, parents should determine what is in the best interest of the child. To make an informed choice, parents of all male infants should be given accurate and unbiased information and be provided the opportunity to discuss this decision. If a decision for circumcision is made, procedural analgesia should be provided.
Circumcision is a deeply personal decision. Since it’s not vital to health or wellness, it seems to me that this decision is best left in the hands of each foreskin-wielding individual.
Being an American in Canada for the summer, I have foreskin envy. There are foreskins everywhere. Circumcision is very popular in the states. It’s not popular in Canada – and much less popular elsewhere in the world. It seems to be a very American issue. In fact, I’ve been told that circumcision began in America during the 1800s to prevent masturbation in boys – which was believed to cause disease.
Since my foreskin is rotting in the landfill, I’ve half-heatedly entertained the idea of growing a new one. My friend, on the other hand, is doing just that. In just a matter of months, he will have a brand-new foreskin. And with no surgery (as it just requires a stretching apparatus and lots of dedication).
Most guys are happy to have one forekin in their lifetime. Perhaps I’ll be lucky enough to have two.

To say that this is in the top 10 of Davey’s posts is a true travesty. Yes I’ve seen many a botched circumcision, and there are beautiful penis’s both cut and natural (as I prefer, Native Americans as opposed to Indians. Then what do we call the indigenous people of India?) Regrowing (and stretching is wretching)is a lot of superfluous crap. It reminds me of the penis envy syndrome that some women have. Instead of contemplating growing at the tip why don’t you think about the base? Grow some. Balls!

P.S. I don’t do New Years resolutions, preferring to make changes as needed and not wait for a new year to do them. (Apparently some others decided not to wait as young men total strangers grabbed me and kissed me on new years eve.) But I digress, Davey should make it his new years resolution not to post about re mutilating of his privates and keep it as such, private. That just goes into the cataGORY of “too much information.”

While a large majority of Australian and Canadian men are cut, in recent years the fraction of babies who are cut as of the time they exit the maternity ward, is 15% and 10% respectively. These numbers have been falling over time and will hit zero one day. Over the course of this century, Australia and Canada will become intact cultures, joining Japan and Europe. New Zealand is somewhat ahead of Australia here.
Some intact men are dirty and smelly under the foreskin. That is not a reason to cut the foreskin off, but to talk frankly to teenage boys of the need to wash under the hood, and to teach teenage girls that they have the right to inspect and clean their boyfriends.
In the 1990s, a Univ. of Manitoba medical school prof but slices of cadaver foreskins under the electron microscope. Thus it was discovered that the foreskin is, by virtue of its cellular structure, highly erogenous tissue. We can safely conclude that the foreskin and the frenulum contribute much to male pleasure.
The foreskin facilitates foreplay and masturbation. Playing with the foreskin stimulates precum, then spreads it around in a nice way.
A mere glance at Craigslist will confirm that
many North American gay men are foreskin fetishists. I submit that Wavey Davey is one more gay foreskin fetishist.
The jury is still out on whether and how the foreskin contributes to straight sex. But there are women who swear by intact.
Circumcision is not as safe and harmless as is commonly thought. Circumcising an infant is a bit tricky, and mistakes can and do happen. While mistakes are not common, a fair proportion of the mistakes are not evident until a man is middle aged. But is it acceptable to circumcise routinely, when 1 in, say, 5000 outcomes is a penis that cannot enjoy sex, especially after age 50 or so? I think not.
January 11, 2010 at 12:03 am
davey –
go for it! get it back! i am so happy to have never been cut. for years i thought i would finally build up the courage to ask my parents if i could get the operation – it was because i felt weird in America being uncut. Now, I realize the operation is totally pointless. I’m not saying that I have a problem with guys who are cut – because, like you said, they probably didn’t have a choice – but an uncut dick is great! I’ve been with guys of both statuses, and while the experience ultimately depends on the guy and their personality/experience/etc, foreskins are the way to go! …now, I think about it and cut penises seem damaged.
that’s so harsh, but they kinda are.
Like I said, still love them – I mean, LOVE THEM, but I’d prefer uncut.
They are just as healthy, just as clean, but MORE functional that cut penises – and any negative feelings against them are created by people who don’t care to listen to both sides of the argument – and it is important to remember that aesthetic preferences are made up in each person’s head. Ultimately what matters is your preference.
For me, my preference is uncut. But a penis is a penis and what is more important is what is attached to it…the person. There is absolutely nothing wrong with an uncut penis, while there actually may be something wrong with a cut penis or how it functions.
Idk – just a thought.
Goooooood luck!

Well gee DW a zillion comments already, so what can I add but a sad reflection from a Jewish (!) friend:
“The only way to lose a foreskin is to wear it off.”
Alas.
(Father and elder brother, both otherworldly, uncut, younger brother cut, lucky to have my treasure undamaged. And a nice comment from fark.com about “cleanliness” as an excuse for mutilation: “Hey, we’re not talking about a chandelier: I would be happy to demonstrate for you how to clean it”.

January 16, 2010 at 12:37 am
to be honest. i love guys who are circumcised. its soo unbeleivably attractive i dont like my uncut doodle. haha
January 21, 2010 at 4:52 pm
I take it you live in the US. where “doodles”are docked like some puppy dog tails, sadly.
What one finds attractive another thinks odd. But you are lucky enough to have the chance to make a choice, which new borns who are routinely circumcised, still today, do not have.
What your doodle does for you now (I am also assuming you are quite young) is not what a circ”d version will feel in 20 or 30 years. The loss of sensation is one of the side effects of not having a foreskin. Ask any guy who is in his forties or fifties who was snipped at birth. So your taste in appearance aside I am certain you appreciate the sensation your present doodle affords you. Is it a good idea to trade that for “looks”.
Also lots of folks really prefer the natural intact version of a penis and might find a skinless doodle a put-off in years to come.
“Firstly, do no harm.” Hmmm…wonder where I heard that?
Be well,
March 23, 2010 at 11:00 am
There’s something profoundly sad, Jarrett, to find a man who doesn’t like himself, and who then laughs in understandable embarrassment at his confession that he does like mutilated men. You want to find out and fix what’s going on in that head of yours, Jarrett.
March 7, 2010 at 12:57 pm
Well, I was cut as an infant. I just turned 50. I have to use extraordinary means to climax and ejaculate. My penis is quite insensitive. Years of abrasion from clothing has left my glans dry and calloused. If the doctor who is responsible for this wasn’t dead already, I’d hunt him down and make him pay. They made FGM a felony in the US but no protection for men! I don’t want to hear about how there’s such a difference between the two, FGM vs. MGM. If you afford protection for one group and not another, that’s prejudice, something America swears it’s against. If you don’t care, that’s fine but there are those of us for whom it matters. For me it isn’t looks, but function.
April 8, 2010 at 8:40 am
I was cut at 18 years old. I really really liked it at first, however, when I joined a gym, I soon regretted my decision to be cut. I want my foreskin back, I still have my frenulum so I still do have some pleasure but it’s not the same. Davey if you do decide to grow it back, let us know. Would be good to find out how you get on. As I too am thinking about reversing my circ. (to be honest I didn’t really get a choice with being cut, it was so tight)
April 10, 2010 at 6:57 pm
For those wanting to look into this more, check out this blurb I wrote with a bunch of info I’ve compiled over the years…and common sense.
http://expansionofspace.blogspot.com/search/label/circumcision
I find it really interesting that ancient circumcisions were very small, cutting just the tip. That makes sense. As a supporter of being intact (and I’m in AMERICA!), I am glad to see that remaining intact is becoming the majority in many areas. It won’t be long before the surgery is basically obsolete – except for rare med. cases and religious practices, although I would strongly urge the religious to consider this partial circumcision of snipping just the tip, or other alternative methods that are being performed today.
Davey, (and other readers), get yours back! you’ll love it!
April 10, 2010 at 8:52 pm
It’s “pull-a-statistic-out-of-your-ass” Day. I have in fact seen that “70% less chance of getting HIV” stat retracted. It’s of the same breed as “circumcision cuts down on penile cancer”. Yeah, if you never wash the head of your richard. Let’s face it: smegma is disturbing to disgusting (with few exceptions one must surmise). But so is an unwashed human body (underarm odor, bad breath, rotten feet). Hygiene will keep the very sensitive glans beautiful, purple and perfectly clean. “The only way to lose a foreskin is to wear it off” (from a sad old Jew).
April 10, 2010 at 8:55 pm
That’s quite a God ya got there, pal. Vengeful homicidal maniac. It is a common phallacy (ahem) of primitive religions that wrathful deities must be placated, human sacrifices, whatever. On the other hand, “primitive religion” is more like a pleonasm. Pleonasty anyway.

This is a bit long but vivid:
Subject: [human-ethology] Male Circumcision Controversy in Canada
by Dr. Paul D. Tinari Ph.D.
October 26, 2009
Two of my physics professors at Queen’s University (Dr. Stewart & Dr. McKee) were the original developers of Positron Emission Tomography (PET) for medical applications. They and a number of other Queen’s physicists also worked on improving the accuracy of fMRI for observing metabolic activity within the human body.
As a graduate student working in the Dept. of Epidemiology, I was approached by a group of nurses who were attempting to organize a protest against male infant circumcision in Kinston General Hospital. They said that their observations indicated that babies undergoing the procedure were subjected to significant and inhumane levels of pain that subsequently adversely affected their behaviours. They said that they needed some scientific support for their position. It was my idea to use fMRI and/or PET scanning to directly observe the effects of circumcision on the infant brain.
The operator of the MRI machine in the hospital was a friend of mine and he agreed to allow us to use the machine for research after normal operational hours. We also found a nurse who was under intense pressure by her husband to have her newborn son circumcised and she was willing to have her son to be the subject of the study. Her goal was to provide scientific information that would eventually be used to ban male infant circumcision. Since no permission of the ethics committee was required to perform any routine male infant circumcision, we did not feel it was necessary to seek any permission to carry out this study.
We tightly strapped an infant to a traditional plastic “circumrestraint” using Velcro restraints. We also completely immobilized the infant’s head using standard surgical tape. The entire apparatus was then introduced into the MRI chamber. Since no metal objects could be used because of the high magnetic fields, the doctor who performed the surgery used a plastic bell (“Plastibell”) with a sterilized obsidian bade to cut the foreskin. No anaesthetic was used.
The baby was kept in the machine for several minutes to generate baseline data of the normal metabolic activity in the brain. This was used to compare to the data gathered during and after the surgery. Analysis of the MRI data indicated that the surgery subjected the infant to significant trauma. The greatest changes occurred in the limbic system concentrating in the amygdala and in the frontal and temporal lobes.
A neurologist who saw the results to postulated that the data indicated that circumcision affected most intensely the portions of the victim’s brain associated with reasoning, perception and emotions. Follow up tests on the infant one day, one week and one month after the surgery indicated that the child’s brain never returned to its baseline configuration. In other words, the evidence generated by this research indicated that the brain of the circumcised infant was permanently changed by the surgery.
Our problems began when we attempted to publish our findings in the open medical literature. All of the participants in the research including myself were called before the hospital discipline committee and were severely reprimanded. We were told that while male circumcision was legal under all circumstances in Canada, any attempt to study the adverse effects of circumcision was strictly prohibited by the ethical regulations. Not only could we not publish the results of our research, but we also had to destroy all of our results. If we refused to comply, we were all threatened with immediate dismissal and legal action.
I would encourage anyone with access to fMRI and /or PET scanning machines to repeat our research as described above, confirm our results, and then publish the results in the open literature.

Hello it’s little me (with the Biggus Dickus) again, all the way from Jakarta.
Sir Wilfred Thesiger, a raging olde British queen and noted explorer (also, alas, a famed circumciser of young boys in Southern Iraq, mmmm) quoted one Muslim Marsh Arab, when asked why he was not cut, as saying “An angel came down from Heaven and circumcised me when I was born”. Nice trick that. Good way to keep that ole oneskin-twoskin-threeskin-fiveskin. Thesiger is worth a study, as he was certainly a staunch Friend of Dorothy, though properly closeted as was expedient in proper British society. His book, THE MARSH ARABS, is a tasty read.

But in the last couple of years i have come to terms with my foreskin i love it i think its kinda cute to i love how u support this . Thank you

I have to reply to this and HIV. First most Americans are Circumcised. And Most Europeans are left Intact ( not Circumcised ) If your comment is true why is the rate of HIV the same in Europe as it is in America. I think it is really due to education and how many partners a person has. But Mostly Education.

You know there is a nonsurgical way to restore your foreskin even at old age. Google Foreskin Restoration.
April 27, 2010 at 2:32 am
Why would god have you remove something he put there in the first place. We were made in his Image, penis and all. Where does it say God is Circumcised.
April 27, 2010 at 2:35 am
Well when your sex drive goes away and you get E.D. tell me how advantageous that is. Circumcision is why so many need Viagra or Ciailas!
April 27, 2010 at 2:39 am
Well A circumcised penis is like a broomstick. Maybe you should read or google this book. “sex as nature intended” the penis is not intended to use friction inside your partner to get you off. read the book.
April 27, 2010 at 9:51 am
Christians believe that Jesus is the Son of God, the Second Person of the Blessed Trinity: God, Incarnate, i.e., God took upon Himself our human nature. Since Jesus was born a Jew and is the Messiah, he was circumcised. God, as Man, is circumcised as the Christian Scriptures tell us.
April 27, 2010 at 4:26 pm
Oh, I just love this one!
I don’t remember ever reading in your Bible that Jesus created any man in his image, but that the Hebrew God (the Big Daddy) was the one to do the creating, if you believe that. So that old Jehovah definitely had a foreskin!
Now read on into Christian Testament and in the Acts of the Apostles you come upon the first great controversy, to cut or not to cut in order to become a Christian. They specifically chose NOT to cut thus not burdening the gentiles (non-Hebrews, hence intact folks) with the commandment that even the Jews had a hard time getting every one to comply with. Thank you St. Paul of Tarsus for that bit of wisdom. Otherwise no way in hell would the Greeks and other non Christians even begin to contemplate joining the new religion. And the Romans who were all uncut, and still are, would have rubbed them out at the start if the cruelest cut were part of the upstart Christian religion.
So most definitely God has a foreskin. Even if she is a female Goddess, she has one on her clitoris, like all ladies do who haven’t been unlucky enough to be born where female circumcision is imposed on little girls. Oh, do you think girls should be circumcised too? Well if not the sisters, than hands off the brothers too!
DO NO HARM! Stop the insanity of circumcision.
Be well,
April 27, 2010 at 4:43 pm
Jesus is not the Creator. He is the Son of God. We are created in the image of God. Yes, Jesus had a foreskin before he was circumcised on the eight day according to Jewish tradition. God, the Father, has no human body, so no penis.
May 13, 2010 at 3:35 pm
I am restoring my foreskin and the difference is amazing. I am really happy having a foreskin, even a restored one.
As I got older I noticed that it was more and more difficult to ejaculate. Now that I have some foreskin, sex is much better. The gliding motion of my glans inside my foreskin is great! Not having to use lube is another plus.
June 24, 2010 at 3:11 pm
The fact that you don’t feel a choice has been taken away doesn’t actually mean it wasn’t. Someone cut your body without your consent and it most certainly wasn’t your choice. The fact that you happen to prefer the result (to the best of your knowledge since you’ve lived your entire adult sexual life with a reduced penis and have no other experience to compare to) doesn’t change that.

June 24, 2010 at 8:04 pm
Go get ‘em Laura! (Say, that’s not Laura Palmer, by any chance?) Circumcision is ruthless and primitive enough in ahem, “traditional” societies (OOGA BOOGA), but when combined with the commercial cunning of modern hospitals / doctors and the ignorance and disgust for the human body deeply ingrained in most Amerikanskis, it is truly a crime. A crime against nature. Say, I like the sound of that. Maybe I’ll copyright it.
In the Philippines, all of which except for the Visayas and Mindanao is staunchly Catholic (or sort of staunchly Catholic, in a slovenly Latin easy-going sort of way) (priests screwing and so on) all boys get cut. If you are not cut then you are “supot”, a derogatory term for a loose bag. It implies you are too poor or too much of a hayseed to have had the operation. That may change eventually but it’s a hard sell. Tee hee, I said HARD.
July 23, 2010 at 8:37 pm
I was born in the UK but raised in Australia. It has never been customary as far as I know to circumcise boys in the UK., Hence I found myself the odd one out growing up in a country where it was the norm to cut. I suffered predjudice and embarrassment in the locker room and beyond because I was intact, though I have never felt the need to join the ranks of the cut. When I worked as a RN in the operating room I witnessed the procedure and it turned me very much against it. Thank god logic has prevailed in this country and it is now quite difficult to find a doctor who will perform the procedure. The very least that could be done if parents insist on making the choice for their male progeny is to insist on analgesia during the procedure. The screams of an infant having his foreskin cut and ripped off should never be heard.
July 24, 2010 at 6:25 am
The more I think it over the more I am convinced this is the way for the state, the patriarchy, the community or organized religion to affirm “We control you, and we control every aspect of your existence, even your precious sexuality, which we shall inflict damage on just so you won’t forget, pal.”
Thanks for the memories, as Bob Hope used to say.

August 7, 2010 at 10:15 am
Like most men, I’ve always tried to show that I’m a real man. However since I was eight years old this has been very difficult to prove. That was the age when my whole life was transformed by the totally unexpected and cruel removal of my foreskin. My parents didn’t even tell me what was going to happen to me; it was my sister who told me I was going to Hospital for someone to look at my penis; not that she knew why. I’ll never be able to truly describe my shock when after three days in Hospital a nurse took me to have a salt bath and removed the bandage from my penis. My foreskin had gone; my little purple knob was totally exposed and there were bits of prickly black thread sticking out of the blood dried scabs on my shaft. I thought what have they done to me; this can’t be normal; no one would allow it, especially Mum and Dad. It was so horrible that I thought I must be the only one with a penis like it. I literally felt you could see inside me, which technically you could. It was as if my bodies privacy had been cut away; there was nothing I could hide, not even the inside of my penis. Now 52 years on; I still can’t forgive those who mutilated me. As a boy having ginger hair in England was bad enough, but add a strange looking penis to that and you really are in for it.
September 2, 2010 at 10:22 pm
I decided to be circumsized at age 33 and am loving it. I prefer the way it looks, and it feels much cleaner. However I do miss the foreskin when masturbating, I have to use lube all the time now. Otherwise no regrets!
September 3, 2010 at 12:20 am
How long ago was that, Gerald? It will sometimes take more than a decade for the loss of sensation to become apparent.. I mean, most infants have 12 years or so of callous build up on their penis before they start trying it out.
Who knows, maybe you’ll be done with it by the time erectile dysfunction becomes a concern.
Regardless though… I more than respect an adult’s right to alter their body.. I mean, some people choose modifications that have nothing whatsoever to do with pleasure or good health… but as adults they should have the right to make that choice.
Infants shouldn’t be cut… we should wait until they are old enough to decide for themselves.

I am circumcised, and i have been since birth, and I am also quite glad of it, because i find uncut penis very unattractive, however i feel like my opinion could be partial to the cut penis’s of the world because I have lived my entire life as one of them. Having said this my attention has been spiked by your attempt to re-grow your foreskin, if this procedure is complete by now, I was wondering if you might share with me how it worked out for you, and if it worked well, I am very interested in attempting to try it. My only concern is that if I don’t like the result I will either be stuck with it, or I’ll have to undergo a second circumcision.
Anywho, please share your experiences with me. I look forward to hearing from you, ttyl.

All of my pals now are Muslims, and some of them have terrific endurance to coming. I think it will keep the ladies happy, when they start off on that trajectory, but I tell you, my mouth almost falls off: it takes forever to make them come. The humorous thing is that when they suck me I have to urge them, time and again, to take it easy on my tender uncut glans. They tongue it and work it vigorously with lips and fingers, until all the blood’s squeezed out (or so it feels). Even when I explain about the extreme sensitivity of the uncut prick, and show them the striking difference in color (and it is really so), they still go at it. A couple have figured out that letting the foreskin cover the head increases pleasure intensely… then when it pops back another jolt comes along the shaft. Yes sir, you’ve got the rhythm now, I thankee.In truth, I’m actually kind of missing being able to work the glorious uncut variety of phalli. Mmm, maybe… Brazil?
November 7, 2010 at 12:00 pm
God gives all men foreskin. Do you realize that human body is a perfect creature? Every part of the body has its function and works wonderfully. Perhaps we’ve ever heard the explanations from experts who are pro circumcision. But believe me, all humankind, even the best doctor in this Earth, still have to learn and learn again about the incridible mechanism of human body. God knows much much better what is the best for human body and the life. And God gives all men foreskin. Just take care all of your body, including the foreskin, and you will get a healthy body and life, including your sex life.

Ok… I, like many other American men, was circumcised shortly after I was born. It makes me feel absolutely inferior and depressed to even think about it. When did was I asked whether or not I wanted part of my most precious organ cut off. I wasn’t, and it pisses me off. Sure, I could regenerate it over time, but it shouldn’t have even been taken off in the first place, and plus, it wouldn’t even be a true foreskin. I feel like I’m scarred. I feel like I am not good enough. And, I feel ashamed of my own body.

I had a snuggle one evening with a chunky Japanese policeman on his futon. When I grabbed his alert nightstick I found that the dear thing would not open up properly. Oh dear, what to do. Should I tell the poor fellow and confuse the already delightfully confused situation even further? I did not, simply cuddling and squeezing the night away. He was too shy to shoot his load and I was not about to go down on anybody with phimosis. Ah, good times in Tokyo in the 1960s.

February 8, 2011 at 11:38 pm
Yes Mike, that’s why Shakespeare called it “the unkindest cut of all”. I have always had the suspicion it is a very effective way of the power elite to establish dominance over the fragile psyche: “Look what we can do to you. Behave and follow orders or we’ll w*******f the rest as well, and maybe you along with it.” I’m told that closet cases in Nazi Germany used to accuse handsome fellows of Semitic upbringing. The Gestapo would make them drop their drawers and display their proud, uncut tools. What a world.

I agree with what davey said, however there are some of us uncut guys who wish that there parents would have made that decision for them..because of my situation, me and my twin brother were born premature and the dr didnt think it would have been for our healt to amputate our hoods…aka foreskin, so when we turned 15 we were diagnosed with diabetes and what came with that is another problem or disfunction called phimosis and because we are diabetic it is uncureable…and it sucks cause I usto love playing with my foreskin pulling it back and forth over my sensative glans. and now I cant and it sucks because it makes four play or any kind of sex difficult, not to mention the unbareable irritation and rips and tares trom erections.. To enjoy a healthy sex life and normal penis functions, there is no other option but circumscision…
