Matt, 27 - Hertfordshire
Where were you born?
Nottinghamshire. When did you first become aware of circumcision? I guess I have always been aware of circumcision. I knew it was something that Jews and Muslims had done, but because I did not grow up in a really diverse area, I didn’t know many people who were circumcised. The first time I really remember seeing a circumcised cock I was about 16. I had gone swimming at my local leisure centre and was told when I arrived that it was a ‘naturist night’ and was told I would have to swim naked. I was already confident being naked; at school I was one of the few lads who used the showers after sports, so I thought why not give it a go? I found swimming naked with other naked people extremely natural and continued going back in secret almost every week. Although I was a lot younger than the others who attended, I ended up becoming very friendly with them. Are any members of your family circumcised?
None, just me. At what age were you circumcised? When I was about 17, I was in the sauna at the pool and one of the regulars who I had become friendly with was sitting with me. Mid way through our conversation he pointed at my cock and said, ‘It’s about time you considered getting circumcised and lose all of that foreskin’. He went on to explain that he got circumcised for his wife and said it was the best decision he had ever made, it was cleaner, looked more attractive and you last a lot longer in bed. I kept thinking about what he said and I did dislike the way my foreskin looked, I couldn’t book an appointment until I was 18, so for the next year I kept my foreskin rolled back. What is the main reason you were circumcised? Cosmetic appearance and hygiene. I was recommended a clinic and within about two weeks of turning 18, I booked an appointment. When I went for my appointment, I was shocked to see someone the same age as me sitting in the waiting room, who was also getting a cosmetic circumcision. When I went in for my consultation I asked the surgeon if it was unusual for someone my age to get a circumcision for cosmetic reason, he told me that a lot of his work is circumcising men in there late teens/early 20’s as cosmetic circumcision is become more popular. |
Are you happy about being circumcised?
I love it, it’s the best decision I have ever made. Its cleaner and looks a lot better more masculine. Sex is a lot better; I can last twice as long and without all that foreskin I can get a lot deeper. Wanking is more difficult, I find my helmet is less sensitive, but the orgasm is more intense. "I got all the usually banter from my mates like the nickname ‘Snipped-Cock’ and ‘Half-Dick’." What is the best and worst thing about being circumcised?
The best thing is sex, especially as few men are circumcised in the UK, when I used to go out clubbing and pull a girl, I would usually be the first circumcised guy they had ever slept with, which is always a benefit as from my experience most women prefer sex with a cut cock. Have you had any memorable conversations about circumcision with mates? Yes loads, when I got circumcised, loads of people at my sixth form knew about it. I got all the usually banter from my mates like the nickname ‘Snipped-Cock’ and ‘Half-Dick’. But besides the banter my mates where quite interested, some of them even told me that they would get it done if it was free as it looked so much better. If you had a son would you circumcise him?
My wife and I are expecting our first son early in the new year and have decided to get him circumcised as soon as possible. My wife feels that it will be more hygienic and that he and I should look the same. I want him to be circumcised so he won’t have to spend the first 18 years of his life with a horrible foreskin like I had too. |
