Pete, 50 - Wiltshire
Where were you born?
Swindon
When did you first become aware of circumcision?
I first became aware of circumcision at school. In the days of communal showers and changing rooms. I remember a lad called Roger and I remember seeing his glans flared and exposed unlike every other pupil and I liked the look even then. I guess I was probably 12 or 13 when I first noticed Roger, around the age of puberty I believe. Roger was new to the school, he was blond with curly hair and I can still see him now, stood in front of me, undressed after sport with his pale, flared helmet on display in front of me and loving that look and wanting to see more. I personally didn’t discuss it with Roger but I do remember some of the other lads teasing him. I was just too shy or embarrassed to raise it. Looking back now I wish I had done and told him how fabulous it looked.
It was a regular occurrence for the sports teacher to join us in the shower (would never happen today), this was at the same time as Roger was with us. He was circumcised too. I vividly remember his cock in front of me in the shower, seeing the soap and water trickling down his body and over his glans. He had light brown body hair which seemed to frame things perfectly. I have to admit that I always looked forward to the shower time, just for the opportunity to look at the circumcisions of Roger and Mr Fossey. Unlike Roger, he was more tanned and his helmet was quite pink.
These are images which have remained with me throughout life and which have clearly been the source of my interest in circumcision, I find it quite amazing that I still remember such detail. Since those early days I always coveted the look and the desire to join the same club just grew and grew.
Are any members of your immediate family circumcised?
No one in my immediate family is circumcised, but I know my cousin is and there is a bond between us. I am the godchild of my cousin’s mum, my aunt, sadly now deceased, but we were extremely close and it was my aunt who told me about his circumcision, which happened at birth, her husband was Jewish, so they were just following tradition.
At what age were you circumcised?
I decided to go for circumcision at thirty.

What is the main reason you were circumcised?
It was a little uncomfortable retracting my foreskin and so I used this as my main excuse but, in reality, it was purely for cosmetic reasons. My circumcision was done privately rather than the NHS, once I’d decided to take the plunge I just wanted it done ASAP. So, it was all done very quickly, and it was relatively pain free, for any guys worrying about that side of things please don’t, the end result is definitely worth it. I am always aware of my exposed glans, and that’s a great feeling to have.
Are you happy about being circumcised?
Am I happy about being circumcised? Get out of here!! I could not be happier, I love being circumcised. My only regret is that I didn’t do it earlier. I am one of a few guys I guess who has the benefit of knowing life both as a cut and an uncut man and believe me, cut is just so much better.
I’ve had a few conversations over the years, all of which have been very positive and people just prefer the look. Once a friend asked if he could have a closer look and I was happy to let him. He told me that he liked the look and generally preferred it to his uncut version. He also noticed I had a guiche piercing at the same time lol, which has raised a few eyebrows!! Whilst I certainly don’t flaunt my circumcised status, I’m not embarrassed either and I’m happy to stand exposed in the showers at the gym, I’ve noticed occasionally a few guys taking a look.
What is the best/worst thing about being circumcised?
The best thing, well I think there are several best things:
If you had a son, would you circumcise him?
I would certainly encourage any sons to be circumcised, but it is a personal choice. I almost wish there wasn’t a choice, I think we should be born this way.
I am 100% proud to be a member of Team Helmet. I’ve sometimes considered having a revision, to get a higher and tighter look, if anyone out there has any experience of this I’d love to hear about it.

What is the best/worst thing about being circumcised?
The best thing, well I think there are several best things:
- The look, a circumcised penis just looks more masculine and attractive
- Hygiene, a circumcised penis is pretty much always clean and fresh
- My orgasms definitely feel much more powerful
- Generally speaking, other including friends and sexual partners prefer it
