Scott, 28 - Merseyside
Where were you born?
I was born in Whiston.
When did you first become aware of circumcision?
I first became aware of circumcision when I was about 13 in religion class. I wasn't particularly interested in what the lesson was about, so I decided to just read through the big textbook I was given. I found a section relating to circumcision and how it is practiced by Jews and Muslims. Back then the only person I knew who was cut was a Muslim lad who was in a few of my classes.
Circumcision is very rare around here and I actually never saw a cut cock in real life until after I was cut. What I knew of cut cocks was all from porn. I really liked the sleek look of the American cocks I saw and I found the idea of the shaft being tight kinda hot also.
As far as I know none of my friends today are cut, but I've warmed one of my mates to the idea of it a little. Shortly after my first son was born the topic of circumcision came up and I told him that I was cut. He asked me what masturbation was like and if it felt different from before, which obviously it does. He joked that if it were free he'd have it done because he's always up for free shit; but then later he seemed muddled. He drops hints that make it seem like he's interested but then asserts the 'if it ain't broke don't fix it' mantra, but he did say that if he ever got thrush again he'd get it done.
At what age were you circumcised?
18 years old
What is the main reason you were circumcised?
I wanted to be cut. I had decided around two years prior, when I was 16, but I was way too embarrassed to bring the subject up with my parents. I waited until I was 18 and could consent to the procedure. My parents went away on holiday and I went down to London to have the procedure done at a private clinic.
Most of the major healing was in the first week and I had the week off work so by the time they came back it was pretty much back to normal. Apart from a few erections the healing was mostly fine. When an erection started it would feel uncomfortable - but they didn't last very long once the discomfort set in.
To this day I've never told my parents about it. It was more a personal thing so I never thought to tell them.
Are you happy about being circumcised?
I am happy about it now. At first I was a little unhappy because the doctor had cut tighter than I requested. I asked for a tight cut and the doctor proceeded to remove as much skin as possible which resulted in a very tight cut. I was a little scared at the result at first, but once I got used to it I began to enjoy it. It was ultimately my fault that I didn't specify further than 'tight'. I guess Muslims are quite radical with their cuts.
I haven’t really had much of a reaction from sexual partners to be honest - people don't usually care. If anything it’s just an ‘oh’ - not really anything more than that. I've never really had any comments in changing rooms either; most guys keep their eyes to themselves.

"I was camping once and woke up with an erection and had to watch it go down as I didn't bring any lube."
What is the best/worst thing about being circumcised?
The best thing about my circumcised cock is the look. I have a nice tightly done circumcision, which is very smooth and is very aesthetically pleasing. My head swelled out a lot after the cut too.
The worst thing is the that the loss of skin definitely makes masturbation more difficult. I need to use lube which makes it less spontaneous. I was camping once and woke up with an erection and basically just had to watch it go down as I couldn't do anything with it as I didn't bring any lube with me.
Interestingly I've switched the hand I use to wank too. I used to use my right hand in a traditional motion but now I use my left with a backhand technique. I usually don't bother if I don't have lube, don't really produce enough spit.
If you had a son, would you circumcise him?
I have two sons (aged 1 and 4) and I had them both circumcised shortly after birth.
