Nick, 28 - Australia
Where were you born?
Adelaide
When did you first become aware of circumcision?
I was always aware of circumcision growing up as a teenager and watching porn seeing other men, but probably when it was most front of mind was one of my first hook ups with a circumcised penis and seeing it in real life. I was around 15 years old and to me it looked different, felt different and I liked it.
Are any members of your family circumcised?
No one in my immediate family is circumcised, so it’s a pretty foreign concept the idea of circumcised penises. My experience growing up always going to the beach and swimming pools in Australia and seeing naked men was that circumcised penises were by and large, pretty uncommon.
At what age were you circumcised?
I was circumcised as an adult aged 27.
What is the main reason you were circumcised?
I was always fascinated since being a teenager about the idea of circumcision, but it never really struck me as something I would consider myself. It wasn’t until I was 25 years of age and began dating an older guy (he was 45 years old). We were seeing each other quite a bit and he was lucky enough to have great anatomy between the legs. Large, well hung penis and of course he was circumcised. He was a really confident guy and we would sometimes workout at the gym together and even shower afterwards. He would often get stares from some of the other lads at his physique and of course his well endowed member.

"We would regularly fuck with me on my back so he could see my new circumcised cock."
The sex with him was great. One night, he brought up the idea of me being circumcised and revealed to me that when he was in his 20’s he also had underwent a circumcision. He told me how much neater and cleaner it was, how much better it looked and that sex was better without having a foreskin that would move around too much. Fortunately he had a good friend who was a urologist, so decided to make an appointment for me and discuss the idea of it. Along we went to the appointment and after a brief discussion and examination, the doctor had me convinced it was the right thing to do. Two weeks later, I was booked and done under general anaesthetic.
The healing process wasn’t too bad, although the night time erections were somewhat painful, but haven’t regretted it one bit since. My boyfriend was very happy with the result at the end, as was I for going through with it. Our sex life was great after that, we would regularly fuck with me on my back so he could see my new circumcised cock.
Are you happy about being circumcised?
Yes, very happy being circumcised, wouldn’t have it any other way.
What is the best and worst thing about being circumcised?
Worst thing about being circumcised is probably the very slight loss of sensitivity to the head of the penis. Being constantly exposed means that you do lose some fine tactile sensation. The healing process after being circumcised as an adult meant some discomfort, but overall it healed up really well.

The best thing about being circumcised is definitely the look and feel, it is much cleaner and neater, never smells offensive like it used to. I also enjoy the rub of my penis on the inside of shorts or track pants when I’m not wearing underwear. Although I can wank without lubricant, I prefer to use it now as it enhances the sensation. Previously, when I was uncircumcised I wouldn’t have needed lubricant.
I haven’t had too many comments from sexual partners, mostly because I preference men with circumcised cocks anyway, so they are familiar with it. Although I have had a couple of comments about being circumcised and how unusual it is at my age to not have a foreskin. I still think most men prefer a cut cock because it is cleaner.
Have you had any memorable conversations about circumcision with mates?
I’ve had a few conversations with mates about being circumcised, given most of them are still intact. Some are completely disinterested, but I have had a few who are quite fascinated by my experience. One mate in particular was very interested and so I decided, given he was single, to put him in touch with my old date who convinced me to get circumcised. They’ve been having casual sex for a couple of months now and I think he might have him halfway convinced to having it done himself.
No one in my family knows I got cut. I suppose it isn’t their business and I would feel a bit awkward about telling them anyway and the circumstances around it.
If you had a son would you circumcise him?
I don’t have children, but I would like to one day and I would definitely have him circumcised. Ideally, I would have him done just before puberty hit, so we could have a discussion about it and that way there was a level of informed consent about the process. Although living in Australia, with a declining male circumcision rate, it would worry me that he might be the odd one out when he starts going to the beach and pool with his mates.
