This lad went through a lot of grief from the keyboard warriors on YT I remember at the time. Plenty of "use cream and stretching" rubbish, so that you know the advisers don't have and probably never have had, foreskin problems.

...cheerful look of the ACTORS. Most partners who aren't paid to smile experience dryness and irritation. As a restorer I can confirm that sensation and intensity significantly increases to the point one wonders what the purpose of the surgery was in the first place.

Tbh, I’ve struggled all my life with having been cut. I was the only one in my year, from what I know who is cut. I felt (and still do) like an absolute freak. I hate what’s been done to me, and it’s affected my life and confidence in a very negative way. To all my mates I seem ok and happy. But deep down i’m miserable as fuck because I hate my cut cock

Mike I am genuinely sorry to hear that. I am assuming you are in Britain?. I agree that circumcision is getting rarer - I have no idea what your age is but even in the 80s it was getting rarer here. but I have known of blokes who go through a lot of pain because their foreskins are too tight. If you went to America of course you would bein the majority. It always pisses me off that Intactavist twats use words like "mutilation" to try to bolster their opinions - for that is all they are, They are a bit like political junkies or soap opera shippers - they are right and everyone else is wrong. I remember a few years ago Harry Judd defended being the only cut member of his band tothe three uncut ones - and his points were all correct. I think if it is a major problem you can seek help through the NHS because it would come under their remit. You can't change how you look but you might be able to change how you feel. I guess that you were bullied or made fun of at school?. Perhaps some of them with elephant trunks were jealous of you looking and being cleaner?

I hope you get through this. You belong to a great group of men who have improved penises. Having been cut as an adult, voluntarily, I want to assure you, that a properly done circumcision improves the sexual experience, NOT diminishes it. Be thankful smegma and caught pubic hairs are not part of your life. And that is just for starters

100% right Rob. We have just had the hottest night in London for years yet when I had my shower this morning there was no odour, which I used to get on hot nights prior to 16 when I was cut, and I was always careful with personal hygiene. I have always been glad that I had it done, and I would recommend it to any bloke. I am not likely to have children but if I had a son I would have him circumcised at birth to make sure he didn't go through what I did till 16. As a gay guy I think it looks sexier, as well as being more pleasant for oral.

I’m 40, so not old, but certainly not young lol. I don’t know anyone else who is cut. I was cut because it was a family tradition on my dads side of the family. Not for religious reasons, just tradition, and that pisses me off even more. Because it didn’t need to be done. Think that tradition has probably well and truly died off now. But if still makes me feel like shit. It’s something I’ve struggled with all my life. I’m still single because I’m so embarrassed about what’s been done to me. I remember someone in school asking me if I was jewish (which I’m not). I think anyone who has their kids circumcised is just plain selfish. I find myself pushing guys away because I feel inferior to them. It’s a shame because I think I’m actually ok looking. And I work for an airline so work with loads of gay guys, I just run a mile when someone shows me any attention. I did try foreskin restoration once, but trying to wear than skin stretching thing in work was a nightmare, so I gave up in the end. I might look at surgical procedure one day. Wonder if I can get it done on the NHS haha?

Mike - sorry you were pissed up at school or wherever, but as Mark said, I think you need to ask yourself what was so wrong about the guys who tormented you and their motives rather than the mere fact you had a circumcision. What were they playing at? The numbers game? (ie there are more of us than there are of you, so YOU'RE the freak etc etc).

Well said, Trad Warrior! Growing up in the late ‘70’s and early ‘80’s we had just one circumcised boy at my prep school originally – 3 (including me) by the time I left for main school – but around a 50/50 mix by the time I was at Public School. I was therefore lucky – no one at school gave two hoots about whether one had a foreskin or not and I only experienced any comments or difficulties at swimming pools outside of school as a teenager. Kids, however, will mock anything that’s different from the norm – big ears, big nose, small penis, cut penis, you name it. I too am really sorry Mike that you had to go through that but it’s a different world out there as adults.

TBH, Mike, you can restore your foreskin: that is gone for good with all the nerves, etc, that go with it. However, you can create a facsimile so that it looks 'right' to you, and will improve your self-confidence, etc. As far as I know, no NBA CAN approves surgical restoration, but I have heard of it being done in mental health grounds. Go talk to you GP, don't be afraid to get a psych consult, and see if they will help. Surgery is available privately, at a cost! Try to get more information from groups, which most will give anonymously if you prefer.

There are loads of videos on You Tube about "restoring", I honestly think it is mythical. I am sure any "benefits" are purely in the mind. I don't know if you have seen it but an American guy called Brandon Marotta, who resents being circumcised has made a film called "American Circumcision", which has bought all the intactavists out of the woodwork with their daft references to "mutilation" and all that negativity.

What site are you reffering to? I can't find anything if I search "Status cut" in google. Can you provide the link?

Yeah I might look into it. Don’t get me wrong, I have been out with people in the past, and was in a 3 year relationship once. But for the past few years I just can’t let anyone close because I’m constantly beating myself up and feel so inferior to everyone else. It’s an odd one, it’s hard to put into words how I feel. And I certainly don’t want to make anyone else feel like shit too. Maybe I just need to meet another cut guy lol. The reason I was thinking of surgery is because I don’t want this to haunt me for the rest of my life. But I find it hard to not think about it. I was watching Naked attraction last year and this guy said he wasn’t interested in this guy because he was circumcised. And that made me feel really depressed. Although some might say he was just being a prick

Hi Mike. My father was circumcised and had me and my brother cut as infants. When I found out what had been done to me I hated it and felt like I wasn't normal. I can still remember the dread that I felt when going with a new partner for the first time, worried about how they would react to my tightly cut cock. It has taken me years to come to terms with it, so I know there is no quick fix.

I'm glad you said that Nick. I think if you meet somebody who you really click with the circumcision status doesn't matter. Take me, at school and beyond uncircumcised blokes never appealed to me - I think it was the fact that after PE few of them bothered to shower, and those that did never pulled their skin back - it really made me feel sick. At work even now in the summer if you use the urinals during summer the smell can be off-putting. In short, if I was just after sex I would go for a cut guy, and when I watch porn I always make sure it is American you can be reasonably sure one or both will be cut, BUT in the last couple of years I have become really close to an uncut bloke, and he is really clean - any time of the day or night there is never any unpeasant odour and because we are so good together I don't think his status matters a bit - in fact I know it doesn't. I hope Mike finds somebody like that

Thanks for the advice guys. I honestly don’t know what to think. But just for the record, I‘m not saying I’m good looking, but don’t think I’m ugly either haha. Anyway, cheers everyone. Who knows what the future holds

If circumcision is so effective in preventing the spread of HIV, however did it ever get about in America? Last figures I saw, over a million men in the USA are living with HIV and 97% of American men are circumcised.

I think it’s healthy for people to say how circumcision has affected them. I’m sure in America it doesn’t bother most men, because most of their friends and family will be cut too. But over here, when there is 10 boys in the school shower, and your the only one who is cut, and people constantly take the piss, then it does get to you.

Mike: point taken about saying how circumcision affects them, but there is really no need to feel negative - in your case you've allowed other people's negativity to colour your whole approach to life, and if they see that it bothers you, they'll continue in their vile behaviour as basically, they've never grown up. To be honest, the only person who can do anything about that is yourself: next time some jerk pisses you up, tell him you're glad you don't have a horrible ugly stinky-winkie like him! Turn his crap back on him and see how he likes it. Much more effective.

Restoration is a slow, but rewarding process.i feel the same way about the surgey, grief at realising how much I'd lost and would never experience. It's too often used when non-surgical options should be explored to keep what is an internal organ, protected as nature intends (and in more than just humans).
