Only thing I can think of is dad left mom when she was pregnant with him and he just popped up in their life a day or two before he found out that he was uncircumcised
He put a separate post on this video after reading threads like this one. He said that his father was not around until he was 7. He did not say why. But it would seem that when he was 7, his father started living with them.
I'm sorry no one ever taught you how to care for yourself before your surgery. Thank you so much for sharing your story. So many people need to hear it.
Oh but his Dr. repeatedly gave him proper hygienic instruction on multiple occasions. And told him to stop masturbating until his penis had healed. He made a person choice to disregard those instructions GO BACK AND WATCH THE VIDEO AGAIN. IF YOU DOUBT WHAT I SAY.
I don't know man. I would think that washing properly is not something that someone has to tell you or show you how to do other than when you are a child. If you smell anywhere it's a sign you need to do a better job of cleaning that area. I understand that was difficult for him due to his phimosis, which makes it all the more obvious why he needed to get circumcized.
Believe it or not, but in the USA a lot of doctors don't have the faintest clue on how the penis works. They even tell young boys to forcibly retract the foreskin instead of "only clean what is seen" like the rest of the world.
@testtest-fn7sk 05:20 he admits that the Dr. gave him creams and a cleansing routine... but I couldn't stop masturbating to let it heal. (this guy had done entire videos about his Obsessive Compulsive Disorder.) He made a conscious decision to not follow the Dr.s' instructions to heal the chronic infection he had now self imposed. The only was to cure him was to do a circumcision, because he himself realized he could not stop masturbating long enough to heal the recurring infection. (I guarantee you, until your circumcision is fully healed, you will not masturbate. too painful. Per his own words, the Dr went over the advantages and disadvantages of surg. and HE a Man of the age of Majority decided to sign his name on the dotted line after intensely googling it....so he was an informed consumer/Patient and now he is blaming the Doctor for buyer's remorse. Sometimes, I wonder how many foolish people there are in the world until ones like him and yourself come along to reaffirm my thoughts.
There's teaching...and then there's watching your 7 year old son pee (weird), somehow not know he wasn't circumcised (how tf can a father not know that), and grabbing his dick and starting to mess around with it to "teach" him something. What the actual F. I knew everything I needed to know before I slept with someone at 14, and somehow my parents magically achieved that without touching my Fcking dick. How are more people not pointing out how weird his dad is
And tell me, apart from Aryan, how many are really circumcised? Probably only a handful. And of those, they are mainly Muslim Turks or others who practice it for religious reasons. Rolf!
As a kid I felt uncomfortable about being uncircumcised because most other guys were. But then I saw the statue of David and felt much better that I shared something in common with that wonderful work of art lol now I think what’s natural is what’s best and I would never change it to fit in to whoever’s “ideals”
Hi, European point of view here. As a Belgian, it seems we're much more open disussing sexual health issues with our sons, although I'll have to atmit that there's a part of the dads, that leaves this up to the mams to discuss. On to some facts, In Belgium, the doctors are more hesitating performing a full circumsion, in stead, they use the "Z- incision" more often. With a z-incision, you don't need to remove the whole foreskin, but you make a "z" shape cut in it, so you're foreskin has more room going over the head of the penis. It's in most cases a perfectly fine solution for boys or men, who've been suffering from phimosis. Kind regards, and thank you for informing men about there sexual health, it's necessary.
As a mother I couldn't do that to my son. I always felt it was his decision to change his body not mine. Thank you for this video, your honesty and courage to speak about this. I appreciate this discussion. Thank you !!
Circumcision is a procedure to promote better hygiene and lower risk of genital health complications. It isnt done just for sexual purposes or body modification. Unlike hormonal swap or SRS
Your Dad, (who didn't know you were intact?), should never have yanked your foreskin back. He may have caused your problems. The biggest cause of foreskin issues is premature retraction, usually done by care takers. The foreskin is fused to the head of the penis at birth, and gradually becomes free to retract on its own. The foreskin should be allowed to retract naturally when ready, and not forced. Sometimes retraction may not happen until teen years. Phimosis in adults can be dealt with using much less intrusive remedies without circumcision.
I thought the same thing when he said that. I was like "damn, why the hell would he do that??" I don't even understand the purpose or thought process behind that action.
My uncut uncle joined the Navy right out of high school in 1950, and and spent a LOT of time in the sea near Japan. He was FORCED to get 'cut' (along with all his fellow uncut shipmates) by his commanding officer - since it was felt that when the guys got 'shore leave', they'd all go visit prostitutes, and that uncut guys were more likely to contract an STD. I've read the foreskin contains thousands of VERY sensitive nerves, and it protects the HEAD of the penis from the rubbing of the diaper, underwear, etc. - keeping 'it' ALSO very SENSITIVE. My uncle was 20 years older than me, and he told me that allowing them to do that surgery was one of the worst mistakes he ever made in his life, since masturbation was NEVER as pleasurable after he was 'cut', and since he WAS gay, there never WAS any chance he was ever going to go into any 'whorehouses' in Japan anyway LOL By the way, I'm uncut myself, one of only three out of about 35 in my phys-ed class (we still had the gang showers - post gym class in the '60's) and my Dad was uncut also, and my parents taught me from a VERY EARLY AGE how to properly BATHE - EVERYTHING, including retracting my foreskin and washing 'it and the head' WELL with soap and water and MAKING certain to flush ALL the soap residue before getting out of the tub. Instead of getting cut, I believe your doctor COULD have done a minor surgery, and made a few SMALL cuts 'into just the opening edge of your foreskin', allowing it TO 'fully retract painlessly', and yet STILL letting you RETAIN the coverage and PLEASURE OF the FORESKIN you were born with - and MEANT TO HAVE !!!.
Cleanliness is very important. parents need to help their boys learn how to take care of their body properly. You wouldn't have had the issues you had if your parents were more attentive to that cleanliness issue. Also, I agree about babies being circumcised being wrong. I didn't have a choice and I will never know what it could have been like to be uncircumcised.
I was told once by my mother how to clean myself and have done so ever since, you start cleaning from your head down to your toes in that order, also it is important to wash as soon as reasonable after sex this is true for both males and females, and I don't mean you have to jump into the shower immediately after, the next morning is fine, but if you go all the next day without washing then obviously that is not ideal and will lead to problems
@@JerryDechant So sad you can never know what it is to be whole and experience the extcy of a foreskin! I wish I could have. I know what was stolen from me! Das 😎 all!
I give you a lot of respect for speaking so honestly and shamelessly about all of this. I don't think most men would feel so comfortable talking about these issues so openly. I think it's very helpful for other men to hear you talk about it. As a man who was circumcised at birth, I was not completely aware of all the things uncircumcised men have to deal with. I found this very interesting and informative and you have a very relatable presentation style. I still wish that I wasn't circumcised, though. But I'm Jewish, so that was never an option for my parents.
Thank you for your bravery, sharing your experience on this painful subject. I'm sorry to hear you received pressure to have the 'cut' although I'm glad you were at least an adult when this was done. "Cleanliness" has always come across as a specious argument to me. We don't cut off our toes to avoid toe-jam, our nostrils to avoid boggies or our outer ears to avoid ear wax. We wash them and we teach our children to do the same. It is sad that involuntary male genital mutilation is imposed on Jewish and Muslim infants and children, based on scriptural interpretations. What I find really puzzling is why, in that crazy country, the US of A, over 90 per cent of non-Hispanic white males suffer neo-natal genital mutilation. Over 100 years ago it was practiced in a vain attempt to reduce or stop the practice of masturbation. Now it is recognised that masturbation and ejaculation are essential to help maintain a healthy prostate, circumcision should be actively discouraged.
An honest and courageous account of a very personal, yet human, experience. Why take away what is a natural part of the male anatomy? He is right, it is there for a reason. Thank you very much Ozzy for speaking about this.
Good advice. I’m 32 and uncut. My father and his brothers aren’t cut. He taught me as young as age 4 to pull foreskin back and clean. Maybe about 12yrs old I’d consciously try to wear my foreskin back. I never had an issue with a tight foreskin and I think that’s due to my dad educating me early. Sex feels awesome and never had any pain! Most of my previous sex partners didn’t know I was uncircumcised or didn’t care when I told them I wasn’t lol. I’d say if you don’t have a medical issue like phimosis leave your foreskin alone!
How could your sex partners NOT knowing if you are or are you not circumcised? Whether you have long or short foreskin, soft or hard status, a couple of jerking motions and it's IMPOSSIBLE to misdiagnose.
It’s crazy to hear people say there is no loss of sensitivity; I can’t wear clothes with the skin pulled back because it’s so sensitive, the only way to tolerate the constant rubbing of fabric would be to lose sensitivity. I think initially it probably feels about the same, but there is no way the exposed gland will remain as sensitive 2 years later.
@@ashamaniq Even at 12 when my friend told me about how to masturbate the only feeling is on the scar. All I could do is scrape the scar and the head was not in play at all. Not to mention absolutely no feeling in it at all. Eventually the scar became sore red inflamed and swollen and deformed because there was so little feelling. Unlike my friend uncut who was just gliding his forskin to and fro. He then told me about why I was different. Also he had beautiful SENSATIONS...I had ebrations. Anyone who thinks that creating such a disparity between normal natural function to the penis is NOT a severe detriment...is COMPLETELY indoctrinated. For 68 years now what's between my legs is useless. Yes I procreate and my son is intact. However my sex life is never wait was supposed to be. 😡
@@ashamaniq After 68 years of exposure...not my choice...Dead Wood! No feelings at all. Totally destroyed my sex life. Yes I did have a son and he is uncut. I grew up in a neighborhood where all the boys were normal natural and intact. I was the freak! Then to have girls who prefer foreskin was crushing! Especially because they said it felt better and came easy. They also like to play with the foreskin Especially because it was fun to cover and uncover the head. They said that it was so wet and fun under the skin as well as velvety smooth unlike a cut tree bark hard one. Leave the boysZzzz alone! Das 😎 all.
I'm from a non-religious American family. My parents foolishly (by recommendation of my ignorant natal doctor) had me circumcised at 2 days old. Babies should never be circumcised. That is horrible. A person can be damaged in many ways by circumcision, and it should be up to the individual whether or not to do it. And the list of so-called benefits are a myth. There are no real benefits...and in my personal opinion, it does not look better. I live with my parents' foolish choice everyday, every time I urinate; every time I have chafing; etc.
@@davidetienne9404 💯 correct! Total madness! Too bad parents can be so dumb to allow this inanity to done to a child! Imagine the scar on our brain in addition to our penis! MADDNESS! 😡
I'm uncircumcised, since I was 14 I've been cleaning it well by rinsing it everyday, never had any infections or issues. Skin is natural lubrication and I would never remove my skin.
@@rjjr.1071 That sounds more like a dorsal slit than a circumcision. Circumcision is the removal of the foreskin. I was circumcised as an infant, and they removed all of the foreskin (except for a small portion that has now become part of the shaft). This is typical of a circumcision.
Great video. I also suffered from phimosis when I that age and it really affected my sex life for a long time. Doctor’s recommended that I have a circumcision too, but I refused. I started a process of stretching - first using a special tool that I found on the internet, and then just using my fingers. After a year or so, my foreskin could easily slide back and forth when soft. It’s still a little tighter than average when hard - but I like it that way, so stopped the stretching exercises. I think it’s very unfortunate how quick doctors are to recommend circumcision, when there are other options available. Fortunately it does seem that circumcision is starting to go out of fashion.
@@fernandofong5002 Not so. You obviously no nothing about a whole and natural penis... there is NO smell, and infections still result (if you don't take care), and phimosis is another problem entirely. Do not speak when you know nothing!
@@patportran4683 So you trying to be smart on me ??😆😆😆 I'm community health worker and medical laboratory tech, my father is a doctor and I've been working in the medical field for 10 years....What I know I know by facts, no by suppositions.... Ignorants always think they are right when they are totally wrong 👍👍👍
I, too, was circumcised as an adult because of phimosis. I tried the creams but still had trouble fully retracting my foreskin. I didn’t make the decision to get circumcised lightly. In the end, I did go for it-you’re right the healing process was the hardest part (surgery was done in like an hour, no problem) because of the night time erections. I would remember waking up and trying to get my erection down so that the stitches wouldn’t pop. I feel fortunate that I got to make the decision about my penis as an adult and wasn’t forced to get cut as a baby. I’ve experienced both in life. I think this decision to be circumcised should be left to men who are old enough to make that decision. In the end, I’m happy with my choice.
Hi, I’m late to this video but I had the exact same thing as this guy. After surgery for the next 2 weeks or so I had such awful pain I genuinely just wanted to die
@@ofcourseuwont nothing, it’s supposed to. It scared me when I felt the stitches pop off but they eventually will come off naturally. So you don’t have to worry about that
I think I was 10 when I had my circumcision. And lucky for me healing was faster than if I had had it done as an adult. About losing some sensitivity or pleasure, I feel that after ejaculation the glans becomes way sensitive anyways so I don't feel I need to feel more than that sensation. Plus, I never get that funky smell that I notice with guys that are uncut. I'm glad I am cut.
@@Fishionista Ppl say when your glans met with fiber like your underwear , tight pant or jeans . It will hurt alot without the foreskin protecting it is that true?
The compulsory schooling system we have leads people like this to grow up to accept the advice of 'experts' like the doctor that deceived him into having himself mutilated and to pay for it, as well.
My Father and Mother decided they wanted me to be uncircumcised. Unfortunately, the hospital did it without asking, as Mother had problems waking up after delivery. The year was 1957, and things were different back then. Sigh, I wish Dad and Mom had gotten their desire. I wish I were uncircumcised. I think there is a procedure to restore your circumcision, but it is what I heard and never followed up.
Gradual foreskin restoration via stretching is possible, but it can't recreate the other parts lost like the frenulum. There is a procedure being developed called Foregen that is supposed to restore the entire thing, but it's still a ways off from getting off the ground, and of course is very expensive.
My Dad taught the same thing to me when I was young. He also sat me down and taught me about sex, condoms and personal responsibility and responsibility to others when I became a teenager.
@@RobertRod818 From what learned of it in my college class, that's too old. You have to start stretching the skin BEFORE your penis begins to grow. You saw this vid I assume. He SAID when he was a teenager he couldn't pull it back despite all the gunk in there.
I was circumcised when I was 5 years old and have had a lifetime of problems in that area because of it. I am now an older man, but still am having sex. However, the lack of sensitivity has become more of a problem because, as an older man, the pleasure felt helps keep the erection, and the lack of feeling makes it more difficult to keep an erection during sex. I also wish that I had never been circumcised - but I was never given a choice because I was only a boy when it was done. It still makes me angry that this was done to me.
@@kennyayuso6031I had a circumcision in my 40s. I used to wear boxer briefs, but it would hurt when I move around because the head is no longer protected by the foreskin and that rubbing against the underwear was painful. So I have to wear the snug, bikini briefs to keep my junk from moving around.
@@dinard38 - Didn't the sensitivity and irritation diminish as time passed? Foreskin 'fans' love to tell us how huge amounts of sensitivity were lost post-circ, the biggest argument against circumcision.
@@gordrichardson1553 The irritation has not passed. I just learned to live with it. I wear tight underwear so the head won’t rub against loose underwear because it is very uncomfortable and a bit painful. Is it me or your comment is sounding a bit snarky. I lost a huge amount of sensitivity after being cut, and would not have done it if I had known this would happen.
Fortunately I was informed about the importance of pulling my foreskin back at an early age. There were eight boys in my family and none were circumcised. I was a pretty big kid before learning that some boys were circumcised at birth or in their adolescence. The first time I pulled my foreskin back was painful but a lot less painful thereafter. I did it while in the bathtub and cleaned underneath my foreskin for the very first time. That was the last time visible smegma accumulated under my foreskin. Eventually it wasn’t painful at all. I always pulled it back while in the bathtub, that made it easier and I could thoroughly clean the area. Later, every time I urinated and every time I bathed I’d pull it back. I’m 70 years old and it’s habit now; I still pull my foreskin back whenever I urinate and when I shower or take a bath. I understand why circumcision is encouraged but I think it would be best to train young boys to pull their foreskin back at an early age and keep the area clean.
Yeah!!! The foreskin is the best part of the pnis because it has a multitude of important and beneficial sexual and protective functions, which is why the foreskin should never be removed.
Thank you so much for making this video. I regret circumcising my own sons, which I did because that was all I knew culturally. Then I grew and learned more, and now it is one of the only 2 things I regret in my life. I admire you for your willingness to be openly vulnerable to share your wisdom on this very important topic. It shows great courage.
Circumcised at 10 years old, I didn’t get a choice. I regret it. It was a botched surgery by an army doctor where most of my penile skin was removed from an over aggressive circumcision. Consequence was many years of painful erections, skin tearing, bleeding and scarring. Other issues such as skin tags, hairy shaft skin and diminished erection size due to skin webbing. The mental and emotional pain was even worse. I’m 59 now. For those who have true phimosis, try using steroid creams and stretching before deciding to be circumcised.
Here in America, the GOP considered trans kids going through body mutilation but they never bring up the topic about baby boys getting thier foreskin cut off.
Wow. My story is nearly identical. Except I was 14 or 15. There was never any 'other option' - the doctor just said there was 1 cure. I hated how the doctor diminished me; I felt 'forced' into the procedure. The pain for the next 2 weeks was insane, I nearly passed out several times. Routine infant circumcision is a major medical and cultural problem that needs to be addressed. Particularly in the US.
Babies feel that pain but since all they can do is cry or sleep, the pain they experience is minimized. Doctors also ignore that fact that amputation of a body part has powerful neuropsychological ramifications. They think it's like cutting off cuticles or cutting hair, but it's not. All those nerves in the foreskin feed directly into the base of the brain and feed the man with pleasurable sensations every moment of his life. You don't just cut that off like you're clipping fingernails.
It needs to be banished all over the world. Babies born in African, Jewish or Islamic societies have as much right to bodily integrity and to be free of religious dogmas as babies born in the Western world.
I stumbled upon this comment and Im actually 15 at the moment. I have my foreskin and I have never been able to pull it back behind the head at all. I try to do stretches till where I feel comfortable. I don’t know if I should just wait and see if it will be able to retract once my body fully develops but Im just not sure anymore.
@@Alex2clean I'm glad you read the comment. Not sure where you're writing from, but I think it's worth talking with your primary doctor or a urologist about this. The condition is called phimosis and it is very common. Doctors (especially the US older generation) tend to be quick to prescribe circumcision as the 1st cure for phimosis, and you should find a doctor that will consider all other options first, and won't make you feel pressured on this. They can provide steroid cream which might make the stretching routine more effective, and other guidance. I understand that 15 is a frustrating age to have this issue, but please know you are healthy and normal, have a great lifetime ahead of you, and deserve to know all options before irreversible surgery.
Outstanding! I am a 57 year old man who has not been circumcised! I have always thought that the uncut penis was ugly, which made me ashamed to show it. Even up until today I have thought about getting circumcised. Not having a father to give me direction as a boy I had to learn how to take care of my penis. I can relate to all that you said when it comes to keeping clean. Education is so important for young men when it comes down to this topic. Because of my shame, I had my son circumcised at birth and he will never know what the extra layer of sensitivity is like. I will say I regret taking away his opportunity to have that choice. I still have my foreskin and I love that extra layer of sensitivity. I still think my penis is ugly with all that skin around it but I am glad I didn’t get rid of it! Thanks for your courage to share such amazing insight with us!
@@Avierx1 You have been engineered though social stigma to feel the way you do. I grew up in a neighborhood where all the boys were normal natural and intact. I never got the memo that snow is NOW black. I think a intact penis is beautiful and know it. It normal its natural and its beautiful. Don't let others decide how or what you think! Sex with my mutilated member is hororable! Dead no motion of sensation no feeling period. Be happy be proud. My wife totally understands and feels as I do. Enjoy what was left for you to enjoy...Keep fighting to end the maddness.
This is a great video. I really feel it will help people decide to go forward with circumcision or not. I've been cut since I was an infant. What you describe as far as how you're sensitivity changed and what feels good is exactly how my penis operates. I hate not having a foreskin. I really wish I got to make that decision myself and not my parents. It's unethical and would be illegal.
I’m furious with my doctor for convening my parents that THEY will have a more convenient time raising a son with no foreskin. They’re convenience outweighed my body and the future of my experience as a man. Seriously -FURIOUS-!!!
I know exactly how you feel. A doctor convinced my parents to do it to me too, I absolutely hate that I was circumcised. Look into Foregen they are working on full stem cell regeneration of the foreskin with all the nerves. www.foregen.org
It's wrong, it's your body and your life, not your parents. I hate when parents think that they own their kids and can decide things like this for their kids.
@@aeroville3160 wow! I’ve never heard of these. We should all sue our Doctors who did this to us (living or dead) and have them pay for this process as well as our lifetime of pain and suffering and emotional damage. Some people are fine with it. That’s okay for them. Others of us are seriously NOT okay with having been mutilated days after birth.
@@boufontleflamingoetta8433 I agree, I am NOT ok with this being done to me either. Yes, Foregen is a non-profit organization based in Italy, they are currently working on trials and a procedure could potentially be available in a few years that could bring back all the nerves and everything taken away by circumcision. We have to spread the word and raise awareness, most people are unaware this organization exists.
A tight foreskin can be loosened using a stretching device like PHIMOCURE. American doctors are only taught that forekin is redundant, troublesome and removable. They are not told that it is primary functional erogenous tissue that provides a lubricated gliding sleeve action and keeps the glans in a mucosal state for maximum sensitivity. Also maybe the issues you had could have been exacerbated by you trying to use soap in your foreskin cleaning routine.

Also lost are branches of the dorsal nerve, and 10,000-20,000+ specialized erotogenic nerve endings of several types. Together these detect subtle changes in motion and temperature, as well as fine gradations in texture. Meissner's Corpuscles are found in our lips and fingertips.

A circumcised (anyone can use this - for us circumcised, this is our only way) man can assess how important his missing skin is by testing his remaining sexually sensitive tissue as follows: In an aroused state, caress the skin downwards, starting from the end of the penis. When your stroke crosses the scar line, note the stark difference in sensitivity. The amount of sensitive area you have remaining between the scar line and the glans is just a sample of what you had before your circumcision. This sensitive region is normally much larger and folded inside the foreskin in the intact male, where it is moist and protected from constant stimulation. After circumcision, what remains of this region is exposed, dried out, and greatly desensitized. Child circumcision was designed in an attempt to reduce the sexual appetite by reducing the amount of pleasure sexual stimulation can provide you.
@Matt S they care about profits and their egos. I have lots of information I can share with you. Is there any aspect of this you want to understand more? The history is flabergasting that such disgusting psychosis became a cultural norm. Doctors should be in prison at the very least for ssxually assaulting children
so many parents are not told that the foreskin is fused to the head of the penis and is not to be pulled back. they only have to clean what is visible as the foreskin will naturally unfuse itself around adolescence
I had my circumcision at 19 as well and never had any infections; however, I was not able to retract . The procedure went well and I had mild discomfort and bruising . The stitches fell off within a week and I had to wear loose underwear due to the increase sensitivity of the meatus . Looking back I don't regret the procedure .
I was circumcised a week or two after being born and after learning the difference I have no regrets except I have heard sex can be more intense for a healthy uncircumcised penis. As far as looks go, I don't like the way an uncircumcised one looks, just speaking for myself.
@@jeffb5785 An uncircumsized penis that has a normal foreskin or have been retracted for cleaning since childhood, works perfectly and is very attractive I think , exactly like an circumsize one. Its much more sensitive because the foreskin preserves the surface of the head from rubbing on underwear or sheets, clothes etc. which in the long run desensibilise its surface (to avoid pain when it rubs) then it creates a thicker skin too. But, I feel being less sensitive can be of usage, so it takes you longer to cum, which is a good thing!!!
@@kidnap2010 I didn't mean to say one was better than the other I have my opinion but I would never argue a different point of view. I only know what it is like to be circumcised and will never know what it is like to not be except to take the word of someone who knows first hand. I also didn't know that he and his dad didn't live together until he was 7 and made some remarks before heard it that I regret now.
@ATHEIST BHAGWAN I get it I have been in conversations with other guys that are (pardon the abbreviation) cut and uncut. As a kid, we have had comparing stories and as an adult, I have discussed with other guys about what they wish they had and the pluses and minuses of each. This is not a common subject but things come up when someone has a problem or opinion about a video like this.
PSA: the glans is fused to the skin like a fingernail until the membrane dissolves on its own. This is not phimosis, it's biology. DO NOT forcibly retract a foreskin before it's ready. This can actually CAUSE phimosis, a condition only in adult men. This can also cause infections. As for hygienic practices: the inner mucosa is an internal organ with it's own protective biome. Cleaning it with harsh soaps disturbs this, causing all sorts of irritation, infections, and wildly inconsistent odors.. Would you use habitual soap in side a vagina, or under your eyelids? Clean water is plenty to wash away the excess oils and shed skin(smegma, just like women have) under the foreskin.
@@christopherbdeeskamp5323 Because you'll find what I said to be congruent with the experiences of intact men the world over, and the eurology field in any developed, non cutting culture. Europe, for instance. Do your own reading, but the resources are available.
@@ryverOSX Are you expecting anyone to read? That means work.... and who wants to work? Everyone is so lazy.... and truth is sadly not as interesting as someone's fantasy!
@@ryverOSX I read his comments. I still have the same question. Yes, he was his biological dad, but still his son was only 7 when he moved back in. You mean that even though he was out of the picture for this time he would not become aware that his son was not circumcised when he moved in after the 7 years. It's a bit odd to say the least. That's all.
I was not circumcised and neither are my two boys. My wife asked me right after each were born if it was ok to have it done. She insisted that it was cleaner and looked better. All because that is what her best friend told her. I told her that is not out decision to make. If the boys want to get it done when they are older that will be their choice. They are now 20 and 18, both have asked me why I didn’t have them circumcised. I told them I didn’t want ti make that permanent decision for them. They were actually both happy I made that decision. To this day they have chosen not to get it done.
That's nice peace of advise to people who are in doubts. Even I myself wanted to get it circumcised since I had erection problem whem it comes to bed. After discussing with the doctor's opinion and sort then doctor advised for me circumcision not necessary if unless feeling tight to extract or getting infections that is not able to sterile with hygienic. It varies from person to person it is better to consult doctors and get advice from people without being shy this is very important for anyone, as a man.
I'm bi Ive seen other men that are cut and been with them its definitely harder to make them feel anything and it's rubbery and dead the simplest thing to do is keep it clean and stretch the foreskin to retract
As the 10-20,000 branches of the dorsal nerve have been amputated, most circumcised men masterbate holding the shaft of the penis at the scar, because that is where they have most sensation. Intact males often hold the shaft at the covered glans, because they have double the sensation, both from the nerves in the glans as well as the foreskin.
I've had that problem my whole life (phismosis or whatever it is) and it wasn't until I was well and truly an adult, that I would force it back little by little each day for a few months when I was 25ish that I finally managed to get it to stay back of its own accord without just retracting by itself anymore. The key to it, was to not worry about the intense sensation of the newly exposed bits of head rubbing against my underpants, because when done slowly over time, my body/penis got accustomed to the difference in sensation. Now its like I'm circumcised when the foreskin is completely pulled back, despite the fact that I'm not. I always thought that I'd have to get circumcised for it ever to fully retract properly.
@@kennyayuso6031 I should have mentioned that - warm/hot showers helps. Also do it at night when you have the time to just hold it in place slightly further back than comfortable for an extended period of time. Don't hurt yourself though.
@@undead.rising Ok , so how old are you when you started retracting? Does it take like years or so ? And how long do you prefer holding it when trying to retract little by little further
I think he is very brave and has personality, to stand in front of the camera in front of millions of viewers to see his video of what he experienced, instead of criticizing him because they rather not listen to him and use his story to advise other people... example... (a father and mother) that you know and is going through the same problem... it is so easy to criticize people and the best thing you can do is listen and then analyze, there are parents who are not 100% aware of what is happening with their children, especially when it comes to their physique and private parts...
I am hopeful that Foregen will find a solution, but I also feel as though it won’t happen in my lifetime. If they do development something early it won’t likely be something that undoes the damage. Some men do go and stretch their available skin they have to create a makeshift foreskin. The main issue is that we cannot recover bands and frenulum-those are gone for good. But for those willing to go through all the years of “tugging” can recover the glans to a somewhat better result by de-kernelization.
What’s wrong with the stretching methods? The people who have done it all say they have vastly improved sensitivity of the glans and the calloused glans goes back to normal
@@2freekey bullshit! He could of said stepdad! Never in all of the years I have known people who has a stepfather call them dad. They call them by their first name. And he could of explained that his "dad" is his stepdad therefore the unawares of his penis not circumcised. This video is fake a shit!
@@mrminecraft6172 Lol... Well, considering your intensity and over something that has zero effect on your life, I'd totally understand that your stepdad would ask that you not call him Dad. Personally, I've heard stepdads referred to in many different ways, and Dad would be one of those if the kid was in diapers when the stepdad came into the picture. If you think it's fake, you can actually just skip over it, without demanding evidence, and your life will pretty much continue as it has. At least you only hit me with exclamation points... You'd totally be an all caps person if you were on caffeine atm.
I was circumcised at birth and will always wonder what its like to be intact. When I was a teen and in my 20s, I was quite "sensitive" so I never really thought I was missing anything. But what's done's done, can't be undone. I personally think its barbaric and abusive to boys. It's mutilation in fact IMO.
That is exactly what it is! If you understand our history in this country and why we do it as commonplace as we do, you would never allow anyone you live with to be subjected to it.
I wish I was circumcised. Thess foreskin are a pain to maintain, they scare girls, and they make the thought of finally getting circumcised daunting because the head is so sensitive with a foreskin, it's hard to imagine living comfortably without one.
When my son was born in 1980, my ex made the decision to have it done. Being a female, I had no experience in such matters.. I have never had a discussion withy son on this. But, now I wish it wasn't done so he could have made that decision himself. His father did not have it done to him.
As a male who was circumcised at birth by my parents LONG before your son was born I can tell you that its not the big deal people make it out to be today. Unlike this guy who was 19 when he had it done, when its done at birth any issues later are more psychological than anything else. I never had an issue with it. My father is uncircumcised and I never even asked if it was HIS decision, my mother or both? Or if the doctor recommended it. And I can't ask now because she's dead and my father is 91 and has dementia. But I WILL tell you that given everything I have read in the past and all the problems and issues it may cause health wise, I'm very happy I am.
@@retroguy9494 it is a big issue this may seam small but its gose deeper than just wanting to keep some skin. It's about dignity, the freedom of choice What parents should and should not be allowed to do to there children. The plan weird obsession with mens foreskin this sick practice must be rid off.
@@Mountainlion118 I wouldn't exactly call it an OBSESSION. Its just a somewhat common practice done at birth is all. Dignity and the freedom of choice? All that over a little piece of skin eh? I can come up with a lot more serious things that affect my dignity and freedoms! And as for parents, remember, until the age of majority, in America at least, parents have full legal authority to make medical decisions on behalf of their child.
@@retroguy9494 there may be more immediate issue but this is still a issue that must be solved. Well then mayby it should be changed so that things like this that are not necessary are not allowed.
I am not circumcised and always felt different, I am very good with hygiene, When I was young I wished I was like everyone else, but in my older age I’m so glad I wasn’t circumcised, my sensitivity is amazing and I believe sex is better, when your younger you could be made fun of , so you feel like you must be like everyone else
I don't know, maybe it was just me, but it is so weird to me hear that some guys never washed their glands when they were kids and teenagers. I am uncircumcised and since I can remember, 4, 5 years of age, my mum told me how to retract the foreskin and clean the penis properly, what I've been doing in the past 40 years! I always thought that all other guys would be like that. I mean, I knew there was circumsided guys, but it was so normal to me to clean the penis properly that I thought all the guys would do the same. I don't know why boys are not taught that like I was! Never had any issues with that and my penins was always clean, with no health issue whatsoever. It is a tabu to parents teach it to kids? Why?
The majority of baby boys are born with their foreskin quite tight - so non-retractable. The prevailing advice is for young boys foreskin not to be forcibly retracted all the way until it separates naturally, usually just before or early on in puberty.
@@handsworth101 I am not sure that is true. Most of man I know here in Europe have foreskin , and no problems with it accept those few with phimosis. But i do remember that on sitcom Friends back in 90's there once was a comment that penis with foreskin loos like pig in a b...t. I think that is the indicator of American culture, Maybe i am wrong but that is how i see it. There is no proved bennifit of getting rit of your foreskin so why change something mother nature gave us it there is no madical issue.
As an 80-year-old uncircumcised male, I have had a great and still have a good sex life. I am very happy my parents did not have me circumcised when I was born. I Was lucky I had 5 older brothers and one was not circumcised! So he showed me how to wash and care for myself to keep it clean and I have never had any problems all my life! I came from a family of eight boys and three of us were not circumcised! Because it cost ten dollars more to have it done, and at the time my father didn't have the money to pay extra after paying for the birth of the baby! At that time where my father worked they didn't give health insurance. so my father had to pay out of pocket! I know most Americans have it done, but most Europeans and Asaina do not! So I also think it is a religious thing! So get many opinions before you do it, and good luck!
Since 1996, the American Academy of Pediatrics' FULL reports, inclusive of its 2012 full report, reaffirmed in 2018, has been suggesting/recommending that MALE INFANTS AND CHILDREN BE LEFT INTACT so that THEY (the male person possessing the subject penis) can make the decision when/after THEY reach adulthood (age 18) and THEY can sign the surgery consent form themselves. MIC is down to 54% since 1996. If there were truly any "health benefits" and the "risks of disease transmission/acquisition" were factually reduced, insurances and/or MedicAid would pay for the procedure if/when done as Adults rather than insurances and/or MedicAid considering circumcision to be purely "elective"/"cosmetic" once/after the lad reaches sexual maturity and adulthood.
I support naturally uncut as Nature made you, unless it is medically necessary, but those of us who were cut had no say in the matter, as parents chose it for us. Otherwise, the best hygeine proctocol to keep uncircumcized penis clean should be taught to boys, to keep that area clean as possible.
You poor fella. Thanks so much for sharing and raising the subject. Was cut as a kid/infant here and so so wish it had never been done. It’s a huge topic for many guys who don’t like talking about it.
@@edwardma-6559 no well yes your true but there are pros and cons of getting circumcised it helps your health like less risk to get HIV,lowers/never get types of cancer and its good dor your kids sexual life in the future and etc. the cons idk i only know that it hurt BAD and etc. its up to the person getting circumcised.
@@kurtdustinpilarca3900 Circumcision does not have these advantages if condoms are not used during sexual intercourse. Circumcision has no real advantages. Penile cancer is a myth. The only thing circumcision does is keratinize the glans, which is not a good thing. Nor does circumcision make sense. All the advantages and benefits are in keeping the foreskin intact and the glans always clean and hygienic.
@@kurtdustinpilarca3900 Yeah it can have benefits but not all men want that. That’s why you should never unnecessarily circumcise a baby. Always leave it up to your child to decide when they’re older and can consent
@@kurtdustinpilarca3900STD transmission is exceedingly high in the USA, along with circumcision. So circumcision isn't a solution, changes in behavior are. Hiv transmission is also low among straight men, so it's again something that can be prevented by behavioral change instead of permanently altering the body as a preventative. Penile cancer is so rare in men worldwide that circumcision as a preventative is absurd. Surely there would be a massive statistical difference in Penile cancer rates between the US and Europe. But there isn't. Good for sex life? That's subjective. The only men that can compare the change are men that had sex before and after circumcision. And most of them only got it dond as adults because of problems. So if it was done to correct a problem, the of course they will say it's an improvement.
Despite your suggestion that we not say anything mean, I really think I should... Just for the hell of it... Just kidding... Shocked cause it takes guts to even discuss this, but probably good for someone contemplating getting cut. I'm cut, but was vocal with my daughters that it was not right for them to make that decision for their sons, resulting in both my grandsons not getting cut.
Congrats on stopping the cycle gramps!!! You are the real deal. MUCH Respect. No real man would choose to cripple their own dick if they knew the truth. It is half the surface area, 75% of the nerve endings including both Male G-Spots the frenulum and the ridged band. Woman of the future will seek out intact men. Mutilated cripple penis is why 70% of American woman can't have vaginal orgasm and why European and South American lovers are revered by American women. They have the full thing.
In the 40's and 50's circumcision seemed to be the norm. Both my brother and myself were "done" as babies. It was just what was done. I was against it for my own son, though by that time is was no longer the norm. To be frank - I'm against it. I feel the body in such cases should be left alone and as it is. If I'd had a choice I'd have declined being so cut. It's there for a purpose.
My oldest brother died from MIC [in the late 50s], so my other brothers and I were subsequently spared (our sons are also Intact). In the U.S., male infant/adolescent circumcision is down to 54% since 1996.

@Matt S All boys are born with non-retractable prepuce foreskin because is is attached to the glans head at that time. Sometime between that ages of 3 to 7 the prepuce foreskin begins to gradually separate from the glans head over the course of years. Eventually, it becomes comopletely separated. The thing that English speaking cultures, especially the US, have difficulty with is that no-one should ever retract a boy's foreskin. The only person who should ever retract his foreskin is hiimself up until the times of sexual activity. English speaking cultures are so engulfed in our circumfetish cultural pathology that we just can't grasp this simple facts, not even our medical industry.
@Matt S My comment stated that at the age of 3 to 7 years, the prepuce foreskin BEGINS to gradually separate from the glans head over the course of years, meaning that it will takes years for the prepuce foreskin to completely separate from the glans head.
@Matt S I've been privy to many infant circumcisions & have never seen one where the prepuce foreskin was not securely attached to the glans head & requires that awful, & probably most painful part of the circumcision procedures, where the prepuce is separated from the glans. It is the same as separating the skin from any other body part. I was privy to these as a doctor, but you can look at videos on line. Thanks for the information about that & informing anyone who may look at these comments & replies about how uninformed many doctors are about intact penises. At this time & year, it seems that in case of American doctors, the ignorance is likely to be a chosen ignorance since the information is readily available publicly, & yet doctors remain ignorant. Unfortunately, it is representative of American medical industry regarding procedures in addition to circumcision. American medical industry tends to choose whatever will create the most demand for their services & earn physicians & other medical professionals the most money.
I was circumcised at the age of 5. My parents did it without my consent, I was too young to refuse. It was so painful and traumatic and I really hate the way it looks now…
@@TheGDEventI Why? You should be happy and proud of the way you look homie. I mean I guess you have your reasons why but all I’m saying is just be happy and proud of what you have.
@@tommythompson6583 well it looks ugly, and my glans turned dry and wrinkly… It has affected the sensitivity as well, I do not enjoy sex as much as my friends do.
@@TheGDEventI Oh Okay but you can’t go by what and how your friends say how it feels. Everyone is different. I’m circumcised also and I it’s not too tight. I have sensitivity somewhat. I can suggest to you just put a little lotion or Vaseline around it to moisturize it.
Thank you sir for describing your path to circumcision. I was circumcised as a baby. My belief is like your, my parents should have let me decide when I got older. I started having sensitivity issues in my early 40’s. Now in my 60’s, the ever increasing lack of sensitivity is definitely affecting my sex life. The days of frequent sex many times per week are gone. It takes a long time to have a climax and many times I can’t even climax during intercourse. I have to resort to masturbation so I can grip my penis harder in order to orgasm. I would much prefer to have an orgasm with my wife. Anyway, I do appreciate you talking about this topic since it relates to my own personal situation.
You are a really smart man! I wish that I had mine, but mine was removed for old time outdated religious thinking, because it used to be a dirty area of infection.
I'm opposite, I'm so glad I got circumcised at 19 (for medical reasons). HOWEVER, I did enough research to know what the best style was. Keep most of your inner foreskin, keep your frenulum and you're good. Lose these and you lose so much sensation and pleasure. I had bad phimosis and realized that if its bad enough, all of these pleasure zones have to be cut off. Thank God I did my research. I also made sure there was enough loose skin to masturbate without lube, if a cut is too tight then yeah, you'll need it
To be clear, there is also a marked DIFFERENCE between circumcising the UNDELVEOPED penis of an infant/adolescent and circumcising the DEVELOPED penis of an adult.
@@Aeson-np8tr I am aware of this, but you also should understand that it's different for every infant. Some of those areas are developed because it's a late birth, and those cases I think are generally fine. I have a friend who was cut as a baby but his frenulum and inner foreskin are very intact, he was born like 2 weeks after he was supposed to be. If it was a premature birth circumcision that is completely fucked up, that dick is never going to feel a thing. Regardless it should never be done right after birth, if a parent really wanted it done then it'd be better to wait a few weeks or somethng.
Really good, interesting video. I agree entirely with your view of Doctors, we, the patient invest far too much trust in them and should always do our research before taking their advice. Re: circumcision, I was cut at the age of two, so I guess what you’ve never had you never really miss, but I would love to have my foreskin, in the UK, being cut was very different to the US, where nearly all males are cut. I see no benefits to circumcision at all, some say it looks better, but that’s a subjective view, personally uncut looks just as good. Given my age now being cut isn’t an issue, but for a long time I hated it. Acceptance and resignation is everything, it’s not stopped me enjoying my penis.
I love the argument that "women prefer it" 🤣🤣 I'm a gay man and uncircumcised in the gay community the majority of men I've met LOVE it! So let's say 8 to 10 straight men like women with big boobs, then we should force them to get breast implants? I swear to God some people are just so dumb!
That's okay to talk about this there's a lot of us that didn't have a choice and most of us if we had a choice we would never have it done! It's the worst thing a man can do to himself!
I'm shocked how many men in the comments are/were insecure about their uncircumcised penis. I've always thought that most think it's either normal or ideal (even some fetishising it)
Hey Ozzy, Cudos for being so upfront about this. Guys with phimosis should also know that the foreskin can be loosened up with a simple surgical cut in the foreskin to let it open up a bit. Alot of guys (me too) resent being circumcised and are trying to restore it by various faithful stretches and stretching devices ( sometimes called a fauxskin). I've been doing it for about 10 years and can dock my bf with it.. BTW sensitivity to the head is vastly improved.
@@francismcdonnell753 To be clear, Francis, there is a marked DIFFERENCE between circumcising the UNDELVEOPED penis of an infant/adolescent and circumcising the DEVELOPED penis of an adult; people often conflate the two and do not recognize or consider the distinctions. The common damages of male infant/adolescent circumcision (i.e., meatal stenosis, skin-bridges, horrible or misaligned circumcision scars [offsetting the Raphe], twisting/curving in any direction, nerve pain, damages to the suspensory ligaments, corpus cavernosa and/or corpus spongiosum, painful erections, early onset of E.D., etc.) have become "normalized" over the years. These risks are virtually absent when Adult circ occurs. One cannot equivocally compare form, function and sensitivity of a newly circ'd 30 y/o penis to the penis of another 30 y/o who was circ'd at birth; that newly circ'd, previously Intact 30 y/o would have to wait until he is 60 in order to compare to a 30 y/o's who was circ'd at birth. At that point, what’s the point of comparing.
By speaking out in a video like this, I think you've done a great service to young men who might be considering circumcision as solving a problem with no down-side. I have to wonder why your father didn't intervene more about teaching you to wash and look after your penis. Doctors are mainly concerned with "fixing" a pathology (i.e. there's something wrong) and all they see is that circumcision can be a quick fix with no regard for the patient's quality of life afterwards. You're right: a young man should get multiple opinions but the approach should be to fix whatever's not right without amputation. Circumcision should be absolutely the last resort. From a different point of view, as far as a young man wanting to get circumcised just to be "one of the boys" or a "real man", that's total BS. You can't go back; there's no do-over.
I slightly made fun of in gym class during the showers, however this other boy made them stop, then explained it feels better to have sex with the skin, they all backed off and that was the end of it, They also noticed that i had very firm erections and that head was exposed during it, my skin retracts completely with no problems!!!
I grew up in the UK and wasn't circumcised and didnt really hear much about it until I moved to the US at age 32 and found that most men here are circumcised. The thing I remember now is my mother used to remind me to pull my skin back and wash underneath it in the bath (we had a bath and not a shower growing up). Turns out that was good advice as I can still retract my foreskin easily to wash underneath and I am in my 60's now :). I used to try pulling my skin back and leaving it back to see how it would feel to be circumcised and my penis was so sensitive in my underwear that I couldn't handle the head rubbing against my clothes. I am grateful for the protection of my foreskin and so I am super grateful that my parents didnt have me circumcised - it just seems so unnatural to me. Clearly nature provided the foreskin for a reason. Anyway, kudos for you discussing this as a young guy! Super brave!
@@alohakeithb Also for a Frenulum and Ridged Band in your foreskin tons of pleasure there im told! But...I'll never know because of what...THEY did to me.
Thanks for your honesty. Stay strong on your schooling. Later in life after family and you are in the empty nest stage a female having children tends to stretch the vagina and not hug the penis as tight. The foreskin intact helps maintain sensitivity to reach orgasms whereas you mentioned a less sensitive penis takes longer to reach orgasim and rubbing the female raw. Not fun. The foreskin serve the man and the woman for life! We had four sons and learned too late with two sons circumcised and two left uncircumcised. We were naive. You are doing a good services with your blog. God bless!
@@benitabartel4669 the owner could always be the first to retract foreskin! Phimosis (when foreskin won't retract) is not the result of scar tissue or pulling the foreskin back before it's ready, although it could potentially exacerbate the problem. Typically, all but the most extreme cases of phimosis sort of resolves itself by the time boys are about 18. And even in those instances it can be normalized through stretching exercises in several months.
I’m so sorry! 😢 I definitely agree that the young boy should be taught at an early age. I am happy that my childhood doctor taught my mommy and daddy how to gently pull my foreskin back and they were able to teach me. Skin can always be stretched it just takes some time. Don’t cut unless you absolutely have to.
Congratulations on your frankness on this subject. Why men are so embarrassed about talking about the things that make us male is beyond my comprehension. I am circumcised and I wished I had the choice to be or not to be. However, my dad went through the Second World War and experienced many men who suffered infections due to not being able to clean themselves. For many years I thought a circumcised penis was more attractive but now I wish I wasn’t as I no longer have the same sensitivity as I did as a teenager. Thank you for bring honest and open about our genitalia.
My parents taught me at an early age to retract the foreskin and always keep it clean, while growing up I had no problems and most women didn't care one way or the other about it however they made sure I kept myself clean down there b/c it wouldn't take long for the smegma to start smelling bad so every time you shower or better yet bath and wash it for health reasons. I love my foreskin b/c I feel I have more pleasure during sex than my circumcised counterparts. And like I said some women like it, some don't, but I never got any complaints providing I satisfied her. That is my story, and sorry about the graphic nature about it however men should know this from an early age, even during childhood and parents, especially fathers should teach about the birds and the bees from the get go. I also grew up on a farm so I was privy about these sensitive issues.
Parents: please teach your uncircumcised boys how to clean under their foreskin... This should not be an issue in the 21st century when we all have access to running water and and antimicrobial cleansers.
In some cultures around the world like here in the Philippines, it is tradition to get circumcised just before puberty. Whether you're a Christian or a Muslim, almost all boys undergo the procedure. We wouldn't know how it feels like to ejaculate with the foreskin still intact. But the upside is we don't have to deal with hygiene issues especially here where it's hot all year round.
Only Christians ignorant of scripture have it done for religious reasons. The New Testament is filled with entries saying that it is unnecessary and antithetical to Christian faith. And hygiene is a awful reason to permanently alter the body. Unless you're lazy.
Thanks for the vid, open and clear. As far as reduced sensitivity goes for the circumcised, it may only become apparent when you are a bit older and its not working so well. I am 68 with a younger partner and we have sex 5 to 7 times a week. I dont think that would be possible if I were circumcised
I STAYED cleaning my stuff when I was young. Nobody ever told me that as guys, we’re different. I thought we’d all look the same, so I became extremely self conscious about myself. Which is weird because nobody ever made fun of me for it🤷🏽♂️. I wasn’t taught how to clean myself at all. I’m 40 years old now. I got my son’s done right after he was born. I regret doing that to him NOW, that I know more. He’s now 13. I thought about cutting mine off, but for what🤷🏽♂️. I have know issues. It doesn’t bother my wife. Plus, I think sex is much better for us, for the simple fact that we’re extra sensitive. I wouldn’t get anything done unless there’s something wrong.
Same . I wish i was uncut. Worse part is the doctor who circumcised me was mediocre at best. Now my pen!s looks weird it has an excess skin that looks like a mushroom .
@@JohnFriday3 hmm there is stupidity here but it's not my "arguement" I'm sorry your miserable. Also me wanting my body to be the way it was when I was born is not an argument.
Great information. I am circumsized but as I was told "The doc was into conservative cutting" so I have almost an entire foreskin and often mistake for uncut. Due to that I too agree let the man decide if he wants his body alerted forever. Sorry about the issues you had with your Dad and also no one teaching you as kid the basics of taking care of your penis.
I hope one day we can vote on this and make it that the only person that can approve and consent to have this operation done would be an 18-year-old male that gives consent for himself to have this operation performed on him. It is a barbaric practice that has been done for way too many years now that is not necessary Unless absolutely for a medical reason.
I was circumcised as a baby. I wish I could see what it's like to be uncircumcised. It does sound like it's a better experience as far as the self lubrication and everything. If I do ever have children of my own, I think I'll leave it up to them to decide. Thank you for sharing your story

Exact. Circumcision of healthy babies is a terrible and cruel form of genital mutilation with no benefits. The genital integrity of babies is and should be sacred. The foreskin is the natural protection of the glans and the best part of the penis. The foreskin keeps the glans with a certain amount of moisture and lubrication to keep it healthy and in perfect condition.
My mom was an RN, and she ALWAYS said one thing about doctors: "Doctors will kill you....IF you allow them to." Do your own research; like you just said, doctors don't know everything....INDEED. I, too, usually have to educate my own doctors because they just don't have the time to stay on top of new and continuing medical advancements such as with this particular area of knowledge and expertise.
Sorry to hear that! 😳But in some cultures there are not that clever yet. They just think it’s the best but it’s actually NOT. To remove something God have created is a big sin. Maybe they will learn some day and we don’t have to discuss this crazy topic anymore.
How could a father not even know his son wasn’t circumcised at age 7?!
This is what I'm stuck on..... lol did he never change a diaper, and not there for the birth?
Odd.....the father doesn't even know his own child, sad.
Only thing I can think of is dad left mom when she was pregnant with him and he just popped up in their life a day or two before he found out that he was uncircumcised
Exactly my thought.
He put a separate post on this video after reading threads like this one. He said that his father was not around until he was 7. He did not say why. But it would seem that when he was 7, his father started living with them.
I'm sorry no one ever taught you how to care for yourself before your surgery. Thank you so much for sharing your story. So many people need to hear it.
Oh but his Dr. repeatedly gave him proper hygienic instruction on multiple occasions. And told him to stop masturbating until his penis had healed. He made a person choice to disregard those instructions
GO BACK AND WATCH THE VIDEO AGAIN. IF YOU DOUBT WHAT I SAY.
I don't know man. I would think that washing properly is not something that someone has to tell you or show you how to do other than when you are a child. If you smell anywhere it's a sign you need to do a better job of cleaning that area. I understand that was difficult for him due to his phimosis, which makes it all the more obvious why he needed to get circumcized.
Believe it or not, but in the USA a lot of doctors don't have the faintest clue on how the penis works. They even tell young boys to forcibly retract the foreskin instead of "only clean what is seen" like the rest of the world.
@testtest-fn7sk 05:20 he admits that the Dr. gave him creams and a cleansing routine... but I couldn't stop masturbating to let it heal. (this guy had done entire videos about his Obsessive Compulsive Disorder.)
He made a conscious decision to not follow the Dr.s' instructions to heal the chronic infection he had now self imposed.
The only was to cure him was to do a circumcision, because he himself realized he could not stop masturbating long enough to heal the recurring infection. (I guarantee you, until your circumcision is fully healed, you will not masturbate. too painful.
Per his own words, the Dr went over the advantages and disadvantages of surg. and HE a Man of the age of Majority decided to sign his name on the dotted line after intensely googling it....so he was an informed consumer/Patient and now he is blaming the Doctor for buyer's remorse.
Sometimes, I wonder how many foolish people there are in the world until ones like him and yourself come along to reaffirm my thoughts.
Amen🙏🏻. He is a very brave young man😊.
A lot of parents fail at teaching there kids more about there body. I know my parents did.
And then they get pissed off when the schools do it. our Culture makes no fucking sense.
*their
There's teaching...and then there's watching your 7 year old son pee (weird), somehow not know he wasn't circumcised (how tf can a father not know that), and grabbing his dick and starting to mess around with it to "teach" him something. What the actual F. I knew everything I needed to know before I slept with someone at 14, and somehow my parents magically achieved that without touching my Fcking dick. How are more people not pointing out how weird his dad is
So true!!!
Circumcision not needed at all unless it is a medical necessity. I view natural body parts are essential.
That's the reason why in Germany now circumceson is verbidden till the boy is 18 years old. And then he can decide at his own. Hugs, Rolf
And tell me, apart from Aryan, how many are really circumcised? Probably only a handful. And of those, they are mainly Muslim Turks or others who practice it for religious reasons. Rolf!
As a kid I felt uncomfortable about being uncircumcised because most other guys were. But then I saw the statue of David and felt much better that I shared something in common with that wonderful work of art lol now I think what’s natural is what’s best and I would never change it to fit in to whoever’s “ideals”
Circumcised at 41. Horrible pain during healing. Some loss of sensitivity. Don’t believe in this barbaric procedure.
That's an awesome story! It's a good thing he (David) was NOT made anatomically accurate... Because David most certainly WAS circumcised!
If you ever have a son, would you get him circumcised soon after birth?
I agree with this opinion.
I can pull mine back an it will look as if it was circumcised but its not
Hi, European point of view here. As a Belgian, it seems we're much more open disussing sexual health issues with our sons, although I'll have to atmit that there's a part of the dads, that leaves this up to the mams to discuss. On to some facts, In Belgium, the doctors are more hesitating performing a full circumsion, in stead, they use the "Z- incision" more often. With a z-incision, you don't need to remove the whole foreskin, but you make a "z" shape cut in it, so you're foreskin has more room going over the head of the penis. It's in most cases a perfectly fine solution for boys or men, who've been suffering from phimosis. Kind regards, and thank you for informing men about there sexual health, it's necessary.
This is sensitive issue and needs alot of pre examination
I've had it once i was born but never knew anything on that until puberty hit
Foreskin is a good thing
Bruh if I can keep my foreskin that’s the move 100%
Can you have this surgery done as an adult? And how succesdul is it, as in is there alot of side effects?
As a mother I couldn't do that to my son. I always felt it was his decision to change his body not mine. Thank you for this video, your honesty and courage to speak about this. I appreciate this discussion. Thank you !!
Right? Imagine if it was legal to give a newborn girl a double mastectomy.
Circumcision is a procedure to promote better hygiene and lower risk of genital health complications. It isnt done just for sexual purposes or body modification. Unlike hormonal swap or SRS

@@Marinus_Calamari compared to circumcised men yes there are im not saying all . But most.. thats why female prefer circumcised men.
Your Dad, (who didn't know you were intact?), should never have yanked your foreskin back. He may have caused your problems. The biggest cause of foreskin issues is premature retraction, usually done by care takers. The foreskin is fused to the head of the penis at birth, and gradually becomes free to retract on its own. The foreskin should be allowed to retract naturally when ready, and not forced. Sometimes retraction may not happen until teen years. Phimosis in adults can be dealt with using much less intrusive remedies without circumcision.
Thank you now I know a lot more
This dudes dad is a fucking weirdo for telling him to retract his foreskin
I'm thinking the same thing. Never retract your sons junk. Never.
I thought the same thing when he said that. I was like "damn, why the hell would he do that??" I don't even understand the purpose or thought process behind that action.
Thanks for the info I was a teenager when it retracted on its own..
Your candor and bravery are off the charts. Just plain beautiful soul to talk about this deeply personal thing. Thank you, sir. Thank you!
My uncut uncle joined the Navy right out of high school in 1950, and and spent a LOT of time in the sea near Japan. He was FORCED to get 'cut' (along with all his fellow uncut shipmates) by his commanding officer - since it was felt that when the guys got 'shore leave', they'd all go visit prostitutes, and that uncut guys were more likely to contract an STD. I've read the foreskin contains thousands of VERY sensitive nerves, and it protects the HEAD of the penis from the rubbing of the diaper, underwear, etc. - keeping 'it' ALSO very SENSITIVE. My uncle was 20 years older than me, and he told me that allowing them to do that surgery was one of the worst mistakes he ever made in his life, since masturbation was NEVER as pleasurable after he was 'cut', and since he WAS gay, there never WAS any chance he was ever going to go into any 'whorehouses' in Japan anyway LOL By the way, I'm uncut myself, one of only three out of about 35 in my phys-ed class (we still had the gang showers - post gym class in the '60's) and my Dad was uncut also, and my parents taught me from a VERY EARLY AGE how to properly BATHE - EVERYTHING, including retracting my foreskin and washing 'it and the head' WELL with soap and water and MAKING certain to flush ALL the soap residue before getting out of the tub. Instead of getting cut, I believe your doctor COULD have done a minor surgery, and made a few SMALL cuts 'into just the opening edge of your foreskin', allowing it TO 'fully retract painlessly', and yet STILL letting you RETAIN the coverage and PLEASURE OF the FORESKIN you were born with - and MEANT TO HAVE !!!.
Bath, key word.
Cleanliness is very important. parents need to help their boys learn how to take care of their body properly. You wouldn't have had the issues you had if your parents were more attentive to that cleanliness issue. Also, I agree about babies being circumcised being wrong. I didn't have a choice and I will never know what it could have been like to be uncircumcised.
I was told once by my mother how to clean myself and have done so ever since, you start cleaning from your head down to your toes in that order, also it is important to wash as soon as reasonable after sex this is true for both males and females, and I don't mean you have to jump into the shower immediately after, the next morning is fine, but if you go all the next day without washing then obviously that is not ideal and will lead to problems
You have more sensation around penis area if you are uncircumcised. The fore skin rubbing against your penis cause a sensation feeling.
if you've got an uncut friend, try and smell the scent of an uncut penis, then you comment again here.
Do you being circumcised after years think you have good sexual pleasure? Sorry for the question.

So sad you can never know what it is to be whole and experience the extcy of a foreskin! I wish I could have. I know what was stolen from me! Das 😎 all!
I give you a lot of respect for speaking so honestly and shamelessly about all of this. I don't think most men would feel so comfortable talking about these issues so openly. I think it's very helpful for other men to hear you talk about it.
As a man who was circumcised at birth, I was not completely aware of all the things uncircumcised men have to deal with. I found this very interesting and informative and you have a very relatable presentation style.
I still wish that I wasn't circumcised, though. But I'm Jewish, so that was never an option for my parents.
Most men dont have his experience and there is a good chance what his dad did caused the issue.
Thank you for your bravery, sharing your experience on this painful subject.
I'm sorry to hear you received pressure to have the 'cut' although I'm glad you were at least an adult when this was done.
"Cleanliness" has always come across as a specious argument to me. We don't cut off our toes to avoid toe-jam, our nostrils to avoid boggies or our outer ears to avoid ear wax. We wash them and we teach our children to do the same.
It is sad that involuntary male genital mutilation is imposed on Jewish and Muslim infants and children, based on scriptural interpretations.
What I find really puzzling is why, in that crazy country, the US of A, over 90 per cent of non-Hispanic white males suffer neo-natal genital mutilation. Over 100 years ago it was practiced in a vain attempt to reduce or stop the practice of masturbation. Now it is recognised that masturbation and ejaculation are essential to help maintain a healthy prostate, circumcision should be actively discouraged.
An honest and courageous account of a very personal, yet human, experience. Why take away what is a natural part of the male anatomy? He is right, it is there for a reason. Thank you very much Ozzy for speaking about this.
Good advice. I’m 32 and uncut. My father and his brothers aren’t cut. He taught me as young as age 4 to pull foreskin back and clean. Maybe about 12yrs old I’d consciously try to wear my foreskin back. I never had an issue with a tight foreskin and I think that’s due to my dad educating me early. Sex feels awesome and never had any pain! Most of my previous sex partners didn’t know I was uncircumcised or didn’t care when I told them I wasn’t lol. I’d say if you don’t have a medical issue like phimosis leave your foreskin alone!
How could your sex partners NOT knowing if you are or are you not circumcised?
Whether you have long or short foreskin, soft or hard status, a couple of jerking motions and it's IMPOSSIBLE to misdiagnose.
It’s crazy to hear people say there is no loss of sensitivity; I can’t wear clothes with the skin pulled back because it’s so sensitive, the only way to tolerate the constant rubbing of fabric would be to lose sensitivity.
I think initially it probably feels about the same, but there is no way the exposed gland will remain as sensitive 2 years later.
It does
Yeah the foreskin is there for a purpose, to protect that sensitivity for maximum sexual pleasure.
@@ashamaniq
Even at 12 when my friend told me about how to masturbate the only feeling is on the scar. All I could do is scrape the scar and the head was not in play at all. Not to mention absolutely no feeling in it at all. Eventually the scar became sore red inflamed and swollen and deformed because there was so little feelling. Unlike my friend uncut who was just gliding his forskin to and fro. He then told me about why I was different. Also he had beautiful SENSATIONS...I had ebrations. Anyone who thinks that creating such a disparity between normal natural function to the penis is NOT a severe detriment...is COMPLETELY indoctrinated. For 68 years now what's between my legs is useless. Yes I procreate and my son is intact. However my sex life is never wait was supposed to be. 😡

After 68 years of exposure...not my choice...Dead Wood! No feelings at all. Totally destroyed my sex life. Yes I did have a son and he is uncut.
I grew up in a neighborhood where all the boys were normal natural and intact. I was the freak! Then to have girls who prefer foreskin was crushing! Especially because they said it felt better and came easy. They also like to play with the foreskin Especially because it was fun to cover and uncover the head. They said that it was so wet and fun under the skin as well as velvety smooth unlike a cut tree bark hard one. Leave the boysZzzz alone!
Das 😎 all.
I'm from a non-religious American family. My parents foolishly (by recommendation of my ignorant natal doctor) had me circumcised at 2 days old. Babies should never be circumcised. That is horrible. A person can be damaged in many ways by circumcision, and it should be up to the individual whether or not to do it. And the list of so-called benefits are a myth. There are no real benefits...and in my personal opinion, it does not look better. I live with my parents' foolish choice everyday, every time I urinate; every time I have chafing; etc.
Chafing? Try using powder and wear cotton briefs. Unless you walk around with a constant hardon, there is no reason for chafing.

I'm uncircumcised, since I was 14 I've been cleaning it well by rinsing it everyday, never had any infections or issues. Skin is natural lubrication and I would never remove my skin.
The skin was never removed, believed me.....I'm circumcized.....

@@rjjr.1071 That sounds more like a dorsal slit than a circumcision. Circumcision is the removal of the foreskin. I was circumcised as an infant, and they removed all of the foreskin (except for a small portion that has now become part of the shaft). This is typical of a circumcision.
@@VargrSkald you're a super human, you can remember everything since your first day here on Earth.....
Great video. I also suffered from phimosis when I that age and it really affected my sex life for a long time. Doctor’s recommended that I have a circumcision too, but I refused. I started a process of stretching - first using a special tool that I found on the internet, and then just using my fingers. After a year or so, my foreskin could easily slide back and forth when soft. It’s still a little tighter than average when hard - but I like it that way, so stopped the stretching exercises.
I think it’s very unfortunate how quick doctors are to recommend circumcision, when there are other options available. Fortunately it does seem that circumcision is starting to go out of fashion.
Thanks for the information bro👍
Do you have any problem with your foreskin now during the intercourse please reply🙏🥺

Being circumcised is like being vaccinated for STD's. Really. It's the closest thing to an HIV vaccination that we have.
I, too, was circumcised as an adult because of phimosis. I tried the creams but still had trouble fully retracting my foreskin. I didn’t make the decision to get circumcised lightly. In the end, I did go for it-you’re right the healing process was the hardest part (surgery was done in like an hour, no problem) because of the night time erections. I would remember waking up and trying to get my erection down so that the stitches wouldn’t pop. I feel fortunate that I got to make the decision about my penis as an adult and wasn’t forced to get cut as a baby. I’ve experienced both in life. I think this decision to be circumcised should be left to men who are old enough to make that decision. In the end, I’m happy with my choice.
Hi, I’m late to this video but I had the exact same thing as this guy. After surgery for the next 2 weeks or so I had such awful pain I genuinely just wanted to die
if the stitches pop then what? (im contemplating)
@@ofcourseuwont nothing, it’s supposed to. It scared me when I felt the stitches pop off but they eventually will come off naturally. So you don’t have to worry about that
I think I was 10 when I had my circumcision. And lucky for me healing was faster than if I had had it done as an adult. About losing some sensitivity or pleasure, I feel that after ejaculation the glans becomes way sensitive anyways so I don't feel I need to feel more than that sensation. Plus, I never get that funky smell that I notice with guys that are uncut. I'm glad I am cut.
@@Fishionista Ppl say when your glans met with fiber like your underwear , tight pant or jeans . It will hurt alot without the foreskin protecting it is that true?
The compulsory schooling system we have leads people like this to grow up to accept the advice of 'experts' like the doctor that deceived him into having himself mutilated and to pay for it, as well.

My Father and Mother decided they wanted me to be uncircumcised. Unfortunately, the hospital did it without asking, as Mother had problems waking up after delivery. The year was 1957, and things were different back then. Sigh, I wish Dad and Mom had gotten their desire.
I wish I were uncircumcised. I think there is a procedure to restore your circumcision, but it is what I heard and never followed up.
Gradual foreskin restoration via stretching is possible, but it can't recreate the other parts lost like the frenulum.
There is a procedure being developed called Foregen that is supposed to restore the entire thing, but it's still a ways off from getting off the ground, and of course is very expensive.
Even back then, they were supposed to get permission. Unless you had a bad sex life or urinary problems, I wouldn't worry about it though.

I was circumcised when I was 5 years old and have had a lifetime of problems in that area because of it. I am now an older man, but still am having sex. However, the lack of sensitivity has become more of a problem because, as an older man, the pleasure felt helps keep the erection, and the lack of feeling makes it more difficult to keep an erection during sex. I also wish that I had never been circumcised - but I was never given a choice because I was only a boy when it was done. It still makes me angry that this was done to me.

Is it me or your comment is sounding a bit snarky. I lost a huge amount of sensitivity after being cut, and would not have done it if I had known this would happen.
Fortunately I was informed about the importance of pulling my foreskin back at an early age. There were eight boys in my family and none were circumcised. I was a pretty big kid before learning that some boys were circumcised at birth or in their adolescence.
The first time I pulled my foreskin back was painful but a lot less painful thereafter. I did it while in the bathtub and cleaned underneath my foreskin for the very first time. That was the last time visible smegma accumulated under my foreskin. Eventually it wasn’t painful at all. I always pulled it back while in the bathtub, that made it easier and I could thoroughly clean the area.
Later, every time I urinated and every time I bathed I’d pull it back.
I’m 70 years old and it’s habit now; I still pull my foreskin back whenever I urinate and when I shower or take a bath.
I understand why circumcision is encouraged but I think it would be best to train young boys to pull their foreskin back at an early age and keep the area clean.

Yeah!!! The foreskin is the best part of the pnis because it has a multitude of important and beneficial sexual and protective functions, which is why the foreskin should never be removed.
Thank you so much for making this video. I regret circumcising my own sons, which I did because that was all I knew culturally. Then I grew and learned more, and now it is one of the only 2 things I regret in my life. I admire you for your willingness to be openly vulnerable to share your wisdom on this very important topic. It shows great courage.
I'm sure that your sons are doing just fine being circumcised.
Circumcised at 10 years old, I didn’t get a choice. I regret it. It was a botched surgery by an army doctor where most of my penile skin was removed from an over aggressive circumcision. Consequence was many years of painful erections, skin tearing, bleeding and scarring. Other issues such as skin tags, hairy shaft skin and diminished erection size due to skin webbing. The mental and emotional pain was even worse. I’m 59 now. For those who have true phimosis, try using steroid creams and stretching before deciding to be circumcised.
Here in America, the GOP considered trans kids going through body mutilation but they never bring up the topic about baby boys getting thier foreskin cut off.
Wow. My story is nearly identical. Except I was 14 or 15. There was never any 'other option' - the doctor just said there was 1 cure. I hated how the doctor diminished me; I felt 'forced' into the procedure. The pain for the next 2 weeks was insane, I nearly passed out several times. Routine infant circumcision is a major medical and cultural problem that needs to be addressed. Particularly in the US.
Babies feel that pain but since all they can do is cry or sleep, the pain they experience is minimized. Doctors also ignore that fact that amputation of a body part has powerful neuropsychological ramifications. They think it's like cutting off cuticles or cutting hair, but it's not. All those nerves in the foreskin feed directly into the base of the brain and feed the man with pleasurable sensations every moment of his life. You don't just cut that off like you're clipping fingernails.
It needs to be banished all over the world. Babies born in African, Jewish or Islamic societies have as much right to bodily integrity and to be free of religious dogmas as babies born in the Western world.
@@jx14aby Yes you are right! Why else are there 1000's of nerves in there!
I stumbled upon this comment and Im actually 15 at the moment. I have my foreskin and I have never been able to pull it back behind the head at all. I try to do stretches till where I feel comfortable. I don’t know if I should just wait and see if it will be able to retract once my body fully develops but Im just not sure anymore.
@@Alex2clean I'm glad you read the comment. Not sure where you're writing from, but I think it's worth talking with your primary doctor or a urologist about this. The condition is called phimosis and it is very common. Doctors (especially the US older generation) tend to be quick to prescribe circumcision as the 1st cure for phimosis, and you should find a doctor that will consider all other options first, and won't make you feel pressured on this. They can provide steroid cream which might make the stretching routine more effective, and other guidance. I understand that 15 is a frustrating age to have this issue, but please know you are healthy and normal, have a great lifetime ahead of you, and deserve to know all options before irreversible surgery.
Outstanding! I am a 57 year old man who has not been circumcised! I have always thought that the uncut penis was ugly, which made me ashamed to show it. Even up until today I have thought about getting circumcised. Not having a father to give me direction as a boy I had to learn how to take care of my penis. I can relate to all that you said when it comes to keeping clean. Education is so important for young men when it comes down to this topic. Because of my shame, I had my son circumcised at birth and he will never know what the extra layer of sensitivity is like. I will say I regret taking away his opportunity to have that choice. I still have my foreskin and I love that extra layer of sensitivity. I still think my penis is ugly with all that skin around it but I am glad I didn’t get rid of it! Thanks for your courage to share such amazing insight with us!

@@aeroville3160 wow! I’ve never heard of these. We should all sue our Doctors who did this to us (living or dead) and have them pay for this process as well as our lifetime of pain and suffering and emotional damage.
Some people are fine with it. That’s okay for them. Others of us are seriously NOT okay with having been mutilated days after birth.
@@GunsNRoses1123 it’s criminal!
@@boufontleflamingoetta8433 I agree, I am NOT ok with this being done to me either. Yes, Foregen is a non-profit organization based in Italy, they are currently working on trials and a procedure could potentially be available in a few years that could bring back all the nerves and everything taken away by circumcision. We have to spread the word and raise awareness, most people are unaware this organization exists.
A tight foreskin can be loosened using a stretching device like PHIMOCURE. American doctors are only taught that forekin is redundant, troublesome and removable. They are not told that it is primary functional erogenous tissue that provides a lubricated gliding sleeve action and keeps the glans in a mucosal state for maximum sensitivity. Also maybe the issues you had could have been exacerbated by you trying to use soap in your foreskin cleaning routine.
Foregen wants to regenerate male foreskin with all specialized structures, if you want to know more about it : www.foregen.org
@Matt S You basically meant American doctors are pure quacks and the rest of the world isn't a lick smarter.
@Matt S 99% of doctors have never heard of Dr. Sorrells fine touch sensitivity testing or Taylor Cold and Lockwood's histology studies. Have you?

The mechanism is simple. The interposed foreskin decreases the friction between the introitus and the glans. The unretracted foreskin consists of a thin dermis that is folded on itself with very little friction between the layers. As the penis advances, the foreskin unrolls so that the portion that makes initial contact with the introitus is 6 cm. Up the shaft before any friction occurs between the device and the skin.

Circumcision removes the most important sensory component of the foreskin - thousands of coiled fine-touch receptors called Meissner's corpuscles. Also lost are branches of the dorsal nerve, and 10,000-20,000+ specialized erotogenic nerve endings of several types. Together these detect subtle changes in motion and temperature, as well as fine gradations in texture.
Meissner's Corpuscles are found in our lips and fingertips. They're there for us to detect the lightest of touches. So take your hands and rub them together. Feel that friction? This is the sensation that is not supposed to be felt during intercourse.
Size of the Foreskin - Its NOT just a 'flap' of skin!
"First, a dissection feasibility study was performed in eight male cadavers. Dissection proved feasible, and the mean surface area of the prepuce, when folded out, was 46.7 cm2. (7.2 square inches)"

Post-Circumcision Sexual Sensitivity Self-Test
www.fathermag.com/health/circ/sensitivity-test/
How Much of Your Sexual Sensitivity Has Been Cut Away?
A circumcised (anyone can use this - for us circumcised, this is our only way) man can assess how important his missing skin is by testing his remaining sexually sensitive tissue as follows:
In an aroused state, caress the skin downwards, starting from the end of the penis.
When your stroke crosses the scar line, note the stark difference in sensitivity. The amount of sensitive area you have remaining between the scar line and the glans is just a sample of what you had before your circumcision.
This sensitive region is normally much larger and folded inside the foreskin in the intact male, where it is moist and protected from constant stimulation. After circumcision, what remains of this region is exposed, dried out, and greatly desensitized.
Child circumcision was designed in an attempt to reduce the sexual appetite by reducing the amount of pleasure sexual stimulation can provide you.
@Matt S they care about profits and their egos. I have lots of information I can share with you. Is there any aspect of this you want to understand more?
The history is flabergasting that such disgusting psychosis became a cultural norm.
Doctors should be in prison at the very least for ssxually assaulting children
so many parents are not told that the foreskin is fused to the head of the penis and is not to be pulled back. they only have to clean what is visible as the foreskin will naturally unfuse itself around adolescence
I had my circumcision at 19 as well and never had any infections; however, I was not able to retract . The procedure went well and I had mild discomfort and bruising . The stitches fell off within a week and I had to wear loose underwear due to the increase sensitivity of the meatus . Looking back I don't regret the procedure .
I was circumcised a week or two after being born and after learning the difference I have no regrets except I have heard sex can be more intense for a healthy uncircumcised penis. As far as looks go, I don't like the way an uncircumcised one looks, just speaking for myself.
@@jeffb5785 An uncircumsized penis that has a normal foreskin or have been retracted for cleaning since childhood, works perfectly and is very attractive I think , exactly like an circumsize one. Its much more sensitive because the foreskin preserves the surface of the head from rubbing on underwear or sheets, clothes etc. which in the long run desensibilise its surface (to avoid pain when it rubs) then it creates a thicker skin too. But, I feel being less sensitive can be of usage, so it takes you longer to cum, which is a good thing!!!
@@kidnap2010 I didn't mean to say one was better than the other I have my opinion but I would never argue a different point of view. I only know what it is like to be circumcised and will never know what it is like to not be except to take the word of someone who knows first hand. I also didn't know that he and his dad didn't live together until he was 7 and made some remarks before heard it that I regret now.
Is it painful?
@ATHEIST BHAGWAN I get it I have been in conversations with other guys that are (pardon the abbreviation) cut and uncut. As a kid, we have had comparing stories and as an adult, I have discussed with other guys about what they wish they had and the pluses and minuses of each. This is not a common subject but things come up when someone has a problem or opinion about a video like this.
PSA: the glans is fused to the skin like a fingernail until the membrane dissolves on its own. This is not phimosis, it's biology. DO NOT forcibly retract a foreskin before it's ready. This can actually CAUSE phimosis, a condition only in adult men. This can also cause infections. As for hygienic practices: the inner mucosa is an internal organ with it's own protective biome. Cleaning it with harsh soaps disturbs this, causing all sorts of irritation, infections, and wildly inconsistent odors.. Would you use habitual soap in side a vagina, or under your eyelids? Clean water is plenty to wash away the excess oils and shed skin(smegma, just like women have) under the foreskin.
But why should i believe you?

How could you not know that your son is not circumcised? Where have you been?
I also have the same question. 🤪🤪🤪
Read the comments. He takes the time to answer the question. Obviously, 100's of ppl wanted to know this.
@@ryverOSX Are you expecting anyone to read? That means work.... and who wants to work? Everyone is so lazy.... and truth is sadly not as interesting as someone's fantasy!
@@ryverOSX I read his comments. I still have the same question. Yes, he was his biological dad, but still his son was only 7 when he moved back in. You mean that even though he was out of the picture for this time he would not become aware that his son was not circumcised when he moved in after the 7 years. It's a bit odd to say the least. That's all.
I was not circumcised and neither are my two boys. My wife asked me right after each were born if it was ok to have it done. She insisted that it was cleaner and looked better. All because that is what her best friend told her.
I told her that is not out decision to make. If the boys want to get it done when they are older that will be their choice. They are now 20 and 18, both have asked me why I didn’t have them circumcised. I told them I didn’t want ti make that permanent decision for them. They were actually both happy I made that decision. To this day they have chosen not to get it done.
Good dad. If men can't have opinions about women's issues, I don't think women should have opinions about men's issues.
At birth its the choice of the father
Women dont have a oenga boenga so they cant have opinion
@@samirsuperman8856 No, but they do have a higher risk of cervical cancer from uncirc. partner.
@@cyprixx GOOD ARGUMENT
@@cyprixx no more foreskin
That's nice peace of advise to people who are in doubts. Even I myself wanted to get it circumcised since I had erection problem whem it comes to bed. After discussing with the doctor's opinion and sort then doctor advised for me circumcision not necessary if unless feeling tight to extract or getting infections that is not able to sterile with hygienic. It varies from person to person it is better to consult doctors and get advice from people without being shy this is very important for anyone, as a man.
I'm bi Ive seen other men that are cut and been with them its definitely harder to make them feel anything and it's rubbery and dead the simplest thing to do is keep it clean and stretch the foreskin to retract
As the 10-20,000 branches of the dorsal nerve have been amputated, most circumcised men masterbate holding the shaft of the penis at the scar, because that is where they have most sensation. Intact males often hold the shaft at the covered glans, because they have double the sensation, both from the nerves in the glans as well as the foreskin.
@@hanzomerdijk4965 yup but uncut guys have natural lube and oils
@@markjames2242 But at 72, that has drastically changed too; no more smegma, no pre-lube 🥴. But I DO appreciate the protection and sensitivity.
Oh stop it. It sounds like you arent very good at pleasuring men if you can not make a cut man feel anything. Either that, or you are just a liar.
@@JohnFriday3 sound like you can't pleasure a fly let alone a man I've had no complaints darling
I've had that problem my whole life (phismosis or whatever it is) and it wasn't until I was well and truly an adult, that I would force it back little by little each day for a few months when I was 25ish that I finally managed to get it to stay back of its own accord without just retracting by itself anymore. The key to it, was to not worry about the intense sensation of the newly exposed bits of head rubbing against my underpants, because when done slowly over time, my body/penis got accustomed to the difference in sensation. Now its like I'm circumcised when the foreskin is completely pulled back, despite the fact that I'm not. I always thought that I'd have to get circumcised for it ever to fully retract properly.
Yo bro, you only did stretching and nothing else?
You only strench it little by little like everyday per once during bath?
@@avisheksarkar1770 Yeah, just stretching. Doing it in the shower with warm water helps.
@@kennyayuso6031 I should have mentioned that - warm/hot showers helps. Also do it at night when you have the time to just hold it in place slightly further back than comfortable for an extended period of time. Don't hurt yourself though.
@@undead.rising Ok , so how old are you when you started retracting? Does it take like years or so ? And how long do you prefer holding it when trying to retract little by little further
I think he is very brave and has personality, to stand in front of the camera in front of millions of viewers to see his video of what he experienced, instead of criticizing him because they rather not listen to him and use his story to advise other people... example... (a father and mother) that you know and is going through the same problem... it is so easy to criticize people and the best thing you can do is listen and then analyze, there are parents who are not 100% aware of what is happening with their children, especially when it comes to their physique and private parts...
Foregen is the only hope for myself and other men like me to get what was taken back one day (and hopefully sooner rather than later).
I am hopeful that Foregen will find a solution, but I also feel as though it won’t happen in my lifetime. If they do development something early it won’t likely be something that undoes the damage. Some men do go and stretch their available skin they have to create a makeshift foreskin. The main issue is that we cannot recover bands and frenulum-those are gone for good. But for those willing to go through all the years of “tugging” can recover the glans to a somewhat better result by de-kernelization.
What’s wrong with the stretching methods? The people who have done it all say they have vastly improved sensitivity of the glans and the calloused glans goes back to normal
Why was his dad confused that he wasn't circumsised
I was thinking the same! This is bullshit and fake!
Good question Barack Obama
A dad can be a stepdad or might not be in the picture when their kid is born and/or the woman does all the childcare.
@@2freekey bullshit! He could of said stepdad! Never in all of the years I have known people who has a stepfather call them dad. They call them by their first name. And he could of explained that his "dad" is his stepdad therefore the unawares of his penis not circumcised. This video is fake a shit!
@@mrminecraft6172 Lol... Well, considering your intensity and over something that has zero effect on your life, I'd totally understand that your stepdad would ask that you not call him Dad. Personally, I've heard stepdads referred to in many different ways, and Dad would be one of those if the kid was in diapers when the stepdad came into the picture. If you think it's fake, you can actually just skip over it, without demanding evidence, and your life will pretty much continue as it has. At least you only hit me with exclamation points... You'd totally be an all caps person if you were on caffeine atm.
I was circumcised at birth and will always wonder what its like to be intact. When I was a teen and in my 20s, I was quite "sensitive" so I never really thought I was missing anything. But what's done's done, can't be undone. I personally think its barbaric and abusive to boys. It's mutilation in fact IMO.
Yes. Circumcision at birth is a terrible, cruel and unnecessary form of male gnital mutilation without benefits.
That is exactly what it is! If you understand our history in this country and why we do it as commonplace as we do, you would never allow anyone you live with to be subjected to it.
I actually want to be circumcised, uk.
Brave of you to be self-reflective enough to take that stance. Most would simply rather live in denial or arrogance.
I wish I was circumcised. Thess foreskin are a pain to maintain, they scare girls, and they make the thought of finally getting circumcised daunting because the head is so sensitive with a foreskin, it's hard to imagine living comfortably without one.
When my son was born in 1980, my ex made the decision to have it done. Being a female, I had no experience in such matters..
I have never had a discussion withy son on this.
But, now I wish it wasn't done so he could have made that decision himself. His father did not have it done to him.
😭
Will you talk to your son about giveing hes children the freedom please.
As a male who was circumcised at birth by my parents LONG before your son was born I can tell you that its not the big deal people make it out to be today. Unlike this guy who was 19 when he had it done, when its done at birth any issues later are more psychological than anything else. I never had an issue with it. My father is uncircumcised and I never even asked if it was HIS decision, my mother or both? Or if the doctor recommended it. And I can't ask now because she's dead and my father is 91 and has dementia. But I WILL tell you that given everything I have read in the past and all the problems and issues it may cause health wise, I'm very happy I am.
@@retroguy9494 it is a big issue this may seam small but its gose deeper than just wanting to keep some skin.
It's about dignity, the freedom of choice What parents should and should not be allowed to do to there children.
The plan weird obsession with mens foreskin this sick practice must be rid off.
@@Mountainlion118 I wouldn't exactly call it an OBSESSION. Its just a somewhat common practice done at birth is all. Dignity and the freedom of choice? All that over a little piece of skin eh? I can come up with a lot more serious things that affect my dignity and freedoms! And as for parents, remember, until the age of majority, in America at least, parents have full legal authority to make medical decisions on behalf of their child.
@@retroguy9494 there may be more immediate issue but this is still a issue that must be solved.
Well then mayby it should be changed so that things like this that are not necessary are not allowed.
I am not circumcised and always felt different, I am very good with hygiene, When I was young I wished I was like everyone else, but in my older age I’m so glad I wasn’t circumcised, my sensitivity is amazing and I believe sex is better, when your younger you could be made fun of , so you feel like you must be like everyone else
I don't know, maybe it was just me, but it is so weird to me hear that some guys never washed their glands when they were kids and teenagers. I am uncircumcised and since I can remember, 4, 5 years of age, my mum told me how to retract the foreskin and clean the penis properly, what I've been doing in the past 40 years! I always thought that all other guys would be like that. I mean, I knew there was circumsided guys, but it was so normal to me to clean the penis properly that I thought all the guys would do the same. I don't know why boys are not taught that like I was! Never had any issues with that and my penins was always clean, with no health issue whatsoever. It is a tabu to parents teach it to kids? Why?
The majority of baby boys are born with their foreskin quite tight - so non-retractable. The prevailing advice is for young boys foreskin not to be forcibly retracted all the way until it separates naturally, usually just before or early on in puberty.
@@handsworth101 I am not sure that is true. Most of man I know here in Europe have foreskin , and no problems with it accept those few with phimosis.
But i do remember that on sitcom Friends back in 90's there once was a comment that penis with foreskin loos like pig in a b...t. I think that is the indicator of American culture, Maybe i am wrong but that is how i see it. There is no proved bennifit of getting rit of your foreskin so why change something mother nature gave us it there is no madical issue.
We have had so many contacts our charity there are a lot of men who feel just like you.
As an 80-year-old uncircumcised male, I have had a great and still have a good sex life. I am very happy my parents did not have me circumcised when I was born. I Was lucky I had 5 older brothers and one was not circumcised! So he showed me how to wash and care for myself to keep it clean and I have never had any problems all my life! I came from a family of eight boys and three of us were not circumcised! Because it cost ten dollars more to have it done, and at the time my father didn't have the money to pay extra after paying for the birth of the baby! At that time where my father worked they didn't give health insurance. so my father had to pay out of pocket! I know most Americans have it done, but most Europeans and Asaina do not! So I also think it is a religious thing! So get many opinions before you do it, and good luck!
Since 1996, the American Academy of Pediatrics' FULL reports, inclusive of its 2012 full report, reaffirmed in 2018, has been suggesting/recommending that MALE INFANTS AND CHILDREN BE LEFT INTACT so that THEY (the male person possessing the subject penis) can make the decision when/after THEY reach adulthood (age 18) and THEY can sign the surgery consent form themselves.

gross
I support naturally uncut as Nature made you, unless it is medically necessary, but those of us who were cut had no say in the matter, as parents chose it for us. Otherwise, the best hygeine proctocol to keep uncircumcized penis clean should be taught to boys, to keep that area clean as possible.
You poor fella. Thanks so much for sharing and raising the subject. Was cut as a kid/infant here and so so wish it had never been done. It’s a huge topic for many guys who don’t like talking about it.
Thank you for this. I don't feel inclined to have my son circumcised and I'm grateful for you being so honest about your experience.
Circumcision is never necessary for any reason at any age. The foreskin is the best skin and never be cut.

@@kurtdustinpilarca3900 Circumcision does not have these advantages if condoms are not used during sexual intercourse. Circumcision has no real advantages. Penile cancer is a myth. The only thing circumcision does is keratinize the glans, which is not a good thing. Nor does circumcision make sense. All the advantages and benefits are in keeping the foreskin intact and the glans always clean and hygienic.
@@kurtdustinpilarca3900 Yeah it can have benefits but not all men want that. That’s why you should never unnecessarily circumcise a baby. Always leave it up to your child to decide when they’re older and can consent
@@kurtdustinpilarca3900STD transmission is exceedingly high in the USA, along with circumcision. So circumcision isn't a solution, changes in behavior are. Hiv transmission is also low among straight men, so it's again something that can be prevented by behavioral change instead of permanently altering the body as a preventative.
Penile cancer is so rare in men worldwide that circumcision as a preventative is absurd. Surely there would be a massive statistical difference in Penile cancer rates between the US and Europe. But there isn't.
Good for sex life? That's subjective. The only men that can compare the change are men that had sex before and after circumcision. And most of them only got it dond as adults because of problems. So if it was done to correct a problem, the of course they will say it's an improvement.
Thank you so much for sharing. Recently I find myself becoming an ‘intactivist’
Despite your suggestion that we not say anything mean, I really think I should... Just for the hell of it... Just kidding... Shocked cause it takes guts to even discuss this, but probably good for someone contemplating getting cut. I'm cut, but was vocal with my daughters that it was not right for them to make that decision for their sons, resulting in both my grandsons not getting cut.

I am very upset that I was circumcised as a baby. This was not MY choice. I have very little sensitivity. USA needs to stop this unnecessary practice.
In the 40's and 50's circumcision seemed to be the norm. Both my brother and myself were "done" as babies. It was just what was done. I was against it for my own son, though by that time is was no longer the norm. To be frank - I'm against it. I feel the body in such cases should be left alone and as it is. If I'd had a choice I'd have declined being so cut. It's there for a purpose.

I’m uncircumcised and I can pull the foreskin back without pain, and I’ve never stretched the foreskin at all.
@Matt S All boys are born with non-retractable prepuce foreskin because is is attached to the glans head at that time. Sometime between that ages of 3 to 7 the prepuce foreskin begins to gradually separate from the glans head over the course of years. Eventually, it becomes comopletely separated. The thing that English speaking cultures, especially the US, have difficulty with is that no-one should ever retract a boy's foreskin. The only person who should ever retract his foreskin is hiimself up until the times of sexual activity. English speaking cultures are so engulfed in our circumfetish cultural pathology that we just can't grasp this simple facts, not even our medical industry.
@Matt S My comment stated that at the age of 3 to 7 years, the prepuce foreskin BEGINS to gradually separate from the glans head over the course of years, meaning that it will takes years for the prepuce foreskin to completely separate from the glans head.
@Matt S I've been privy to many infant circumcisions & have never seen one where the prepuce foreskin was not securely attached to the glans head & requires that awful, & probably most painful part of the circumcision procedures, where the prepuce is separated from the glans. It is the same as separating the skin from any other body part. I was privy to these as a doctor, but you can look at videos on line. Thanks for the information about that & informing anyone who may look at these comments & replies about how uninformed many doctors are about intact penises. At this time & year, it seems that in case of American doctors, the ignorance is likely to be a chosen ignorance since the information is readily available publicly, & yet doctors remain ignorant. Unfortunately, it is representative of American medical industry regarding procedures in addition to circumcision. American medical industry tends to choose whatever will create the most demand for their services & earn physicians & other medical professionals the most money.
@Matt S Very good. Thank you.
I was circumcised at the age of 5. My parents did it without my consent, I was too young to refuse. It was so painful and traumatic and I really hate the way it looks now…

Thank you sir for describing your path to circumcision. I was circumcised as a baby. My belief is like your, my parents should have let me decide when I got older. I started having sensitivity issues in my early 40’s. Now in my 60’s, the ever increasing lack of sensitivity is definitely affecting my sex life. The days of frequent sex many times per week are gone. It takes a long time to have a climax and many times I can’t even climax during intercourse. I have to resort to masturbation so I can grip my penis harder in order to orgasm. I would much prefer to have an orgasm with my wife. Anyway, I do appreciate you talking about this topic since it relates to my own personal situation.
You are a really smart man! I wish that I had mine, but mine was removed for old time outdated religious thinking, because it used to be a dirty area of infection.
I'm opposite, I'm so glad I got circumcised at 19 (for medical reasons). HOWEVER, I did enough research to know what the best style was. Keep most of your inner foreskin, keep your frenulum and you're good. Lose these and you lose so much sensation and pleasure. I had bad phimosis and realized that if its bad enough, all of these pleasure zones have to be cut off. Thank God I did my research. I also made sure there was enough loose skin to masturbate without lube, if a cut is too tight then yeah, you'll need it
To be clear, there is also a marked DIFFERENCE between circumcising the UNDELVEOPED penis of an infant/adolescent and circumcising the DEVELOPED penis of an adult.
@@Aeson-np8tr I am aware of this, but you also should understand that it's different for every infant. Some of those areas are developed because it's a late birth, and those cases I think are generally fine.
I have a friend who was cut as a baby but his frenulum and inner foreskin are very intact, he was born like 2 weeks after he was supposed to be. If it was a premature birth circumcision that is completely fucked up, that dick is never going to feel a thing.
Regardless it should never be done right after birth, if a parent really wanted it done then it'd be better to wait a few weeks or somethng.
@@Valientlink The male penis (and testes) are NOT "developed" until after the completion of puberty.
@@Aeson-np8tr Yes, that tiny snip of infant foreskin would have turned into a much bigger piece - the size of a postcard, in adulthood.
Really good, interesting video. I agree entirely with your view of Doctors, we, the patient invest far too much trust in them and should always do our research before taking their advice. Re: circumcision, I was cut at the age of two, so I guess what you’ve never had you never really miss, but I would love to have my foreskin, in the UK, being cut was very different to the US, where nearly all males are cut. I see no benefits to circumcision at all, some say it looks better, but that’s a subjective view, personally uncut looks just as good. Given my age now being cut isn’t an issue, but for a long time I hated it. Acceptance and resignation is everything, it’s not stopped me enjoying my penis.
I think nature has given us something cause it matters for something.
Like my now-removed gallbladder, appendix, tonsils, wisdom teeth, etc. LoL
You can try foreskin restoration and get it back to some extent if you want
I love the argument that "women prefer it" 🤣🤣 I'm a gay man and uncircumcised in the gay community the majority of men I've met LOVE it! So let's say 8 to 10 straight men like women with big boobs, then we should force them to get breast implants? I swear to God some people are just so dumb!
Whatever women like that’s what they like. Cut or uncut. Just like it’s whatever you like.
That's okay to talk about this there's a lot of us that didn't have a choice and most of us if we had a choice we would never have it done! It's the worst thing a man can do to himself!
I'm shocked how many men in the comments are/were insecure about their uncircumcised penis. I've always thought that most think it's either normal or ideal (even some fetishising it)
I was Circumcised when i was a baby i didn't really have any choice.
🤣
Oof My parents tried to do that with me but I was sick when I was little so they basically forgot
Hey Ozzy, Cudos for being so upfront about this. Guys with phimosis should also know that the foreskin can be loosened up with a simple surgical cut in the foreskin to let it open up a bit. Alot of guys (me too) resent being circumcised and are trying to restore it by various faithful stretches and stretching devices ( sometimes called a fauxskin). I've been doing it for about 10 years and can dock my bf with it.. BTW sensitivity to the head is vastly improved.
I was circumcised at age 30. Best thing I ever did.
@94709 why would you say that?
@@francismcdonnell753 To be clear, Francis, there is a marked DIFFERENCE between circumcising the UNDELVEOPED penis of an infant/adolescent and circumcising the DEVELOPED penis of an adult; people often conflate the two and do not recognize or consider the distinctions.
The common damages of male infant/adolescent circumcision (i.e., meatal stenosis, skin-bridges, horrible or misaligned circumcision scars [offsetting the Raphe], twisting/curving in any direction, nerve pain, damages to the suspensory ligaments, corpus cavernosa and/or corpus spongiosum, painful erections, early onset of E.D., etc.) have become "normalized" over the years. These risks are virtually absent when Adult circ occurs.
One cannot equivocally compare form, function and sensitivity of a newly circ'd 30 y/o penis to the penis of another 30 y/o who was circ'd at birth; that newly circ'd, previously Intact 30 y/o would have to wait until he is 60 in order to compare to a 30 y/o's who was circ'd at birth. At that point, what’s the point of comparing.
The regret is less when you have the choice. You know the before and the after
Best thing.
did u have pain until 30? How was it being uncirc for 30 years?
By speaking out in a video like this, I think you've done a great service to young men who might be considering circumcision as solving a problem with no down-side. I have to wonder why your father didn't intervene more about teaching you to wash and look after your penis. Doctors are mainly concerned with "fixing" a pathology (i.e. there's something wrong) and all they see is that circumcision can be a quick fix with no regard for the patient's quality of life afterwards. You're right: a young man should get multiple opinions but the approach should be to fix whatever's not right without amputation. Circumcision should be absolutely the last resort.
From a different point of view, as far as a young man wanting to get circumcised just to be "one of the boys" or a "real man", that's total BS. You can't go back; there's no do-over.
I slightly made fun of in gym class during the showers, however this other boy made them stop, then explained it feels better to have sex with the skin, they all backed off and that was the end of it, They also noticed that i had very firm erections and that head was exposed during it, my skin retracts completely with no problems!!!
Thanks for putting that out there ,no pun intended.Thanks for that information everyone needs to know fereal.
I grew up in the UK and wasn't circumcised and didnt really hear much about it until I moved to the US at age 32 and found that most men here are circumcised. The thing I remember now is my mother used to remind me to pull my skin back and wash underneath it in the bath (we had a bath and not a shower growing up). Turns out that was good advice as I can still retract my foreskin easily to wash underneath and I am in my 60's now :). I used to try pulling my skin back and leaving it back to see how it would feel to be circumcised and my penis was so sensitive in my underwear that I couldn't handle the head rubbing against my clothes. I am grateful for the protection of my foreskin and so I am super grateful that my parents didnt have me circumcised - it just seems so unnatural to me. Clearly nature provided the foreskin for a reason. Anyway, kudos for you discussing this as a young guy! Super brave!
Nnature provided the foreskin for a reason, to gross out women when they are giving oral.
@@alohakeithb
Also for a Frenulum and Ridged Band in your foreskin tons of pleasure there im told! But...I'll never know because of what...THEY did to me.
Thanks for your honesty. Stay strong on your schooling. Later in life after family and you are in the empty nest stage a female having children tends to stretch the vagina and not hug the penis as tight. The foreskin intact helps maintain sensitivity to reach orgasms whereas you mentioned a less sensitive penis takes longer to reach orgasim and rubbing the female raw. Not fun. The foreskin serve the man and the woman for life! We had four sons and learned too late with two sons circumcised and two left uncircumcised. We were naive. You are doing a good services with your blog. God bless!
Have you considered or do you think that the forced retraction at a young age caused scar tissue that created the issue with your foreskin?
Definitely! Scar tissue and unnatural adhesions due to the trauma. Only the owner of the penis should retract.
@@benitabartel4669 the owner could always be the first to retract foreskin!
Phimosis (when foreskin won't retract) is not the result of scar tissue or pulling the foreskin back before it's ready, although it could potentially exacerbate the problem.
Typically, all but the most extreme cases of phimosis sort of resolves itself by the time boys are about 18. And even in those instances it can be normalized through stretching exercises in several months.
So glad I was never cut. Genital mutilation should never be normalized.
I’m so sorry! 😢
I definitely agree that the young boy should be taught at an early age. I am happy that my childhood doctor taught my mommy and daddy how to gently pull my foreskin back and they were able to teach me. Skin can always be stretched it just takes some time. Don’t cut unless you absolutely have to.
Skin can always be stretched, but that nasty smell will never go away.
ive never listened to anyone talk about their penis for 15 minutes before
Congratulations on your frankness on this subject. Why men are so embarrassed about talking about the things that make us male is beyond my comprehension. I am circumcised and I wished I had the choice to be or not to be. However, my dad went through the Second World War and experienced many men who suffered infections due to not being able to clean themselves. For many years I thought a circumcised penis was more attractive but now I wish I wasn’t as I no longer have the same sensitivity as I did as a teenager. Thank you for bring honest and open about our genitalia.
Imagine saying, " I mutilated myself because I didn't want to wash between my legs..."
My parents taught me at an early age to retract the foreskin and always keep it clean, while growing up I had no problems and most women didn't care one way or the other about it however they made sure I kept myself clean down there b/c it wouldn't take long for the smegma to start smelling bad so every time you shower or better yet bath and wash it for health reasons. I love my foreskin b/c I feel I have more pleasure during sex than my circumcised counterparts. And like I said some women like it, some don't, but I never got any complaints providing I satisfied her. That is my story, and sorry about the graphic nature about it however men should know this from an early age, even during childhood and parents, especially fathers should teach about the birds and the bees from the get go. I also grew up on a farm so I was privy about these sensitive issues.
Parents: please teach your uncircumcised boys how to clean under their foreskin... This should not be an issue in the 21st century when we all have access to running water and and antimicrobial cleansers.
In some cultures around the world like here in the Philippines, it is tradition to get circumcised just before puberty. Whether you're a Christian or a Muslim, almost all boys undergo the procedure. We wouldn't know how it feels like to ejaculate with the foreskin still intact.
But the upside is we don't have to deal with hygiene issues especially here where it's hot all year round.
What do you think happens between womens legs.
Only Christians ignorant of scripture have it done for religious reasons. The New Testament is filled with entries saying that it is unnecessary and antithetical to Christian faith.
And hygiene is a awful reason to permanently alter the body. Unless you're lazy.
Thanks for the vid, open and clear. As far as reduced sensitivity goes for the circumcised, it may only become apparent when you are a bit older and its not working so well. I am 68 with a younger partner and we have sex 5 to 7 times a week. I dont think that would be possible if I were circumcised
have older partner to with thick hood : I’m cut , but admire the aroma / taste of natural male 💨…
I STAYED cleaning my stuff when I was young. Nobody ever told me that as guys, we’re different. I thought we’d all look the same, so I became extremely self conscious about myself. Which is weird because nobody ever made fun of me for it🤷🏽♂️. I wasn’t taught how to clean myself at all. I’m 40 years old now. I got my son’s done right after he was born. I regret doing that to him NOW, that I know more. He’s now 13. I thought about cutting mine off, but for what🤷🏽♂️. I have know issues. It doesn’t bother my wife. Plus, I think sex is much better for us, for the simple fact that we’re extra sensitive. I wouldn’t get anything done unless there’s something wrong.
I Wish my parents would have just let me stay the way God intended my body to be.
god intended for your hair and nails togrow and not be cut. have you ever shaved?. pretty stupid argument
argument
Same . I wish i was uncut. Worse part is the doctor who circumcised me was mediocre at best. Now my pen!s looks weird it has an excess skin that looks like a mushroom .
@@JohnFriday3 Hair and nails grow after being cut. Foreskin does not. Cutting it when not medically required, is mutilation.
@@marnyfrancesca2526 True, it's like saying we should surgically remove our eye-lids so we can wash our eyes LOL.
@@JohnFriday3 hmm there is stupidity here but it's not my "arguement" I'm sorry your miserable.
Also me wanting my body to be the way it was when I was born is not an argument.
Great information. I am circumsized but as I was told "The doc was into conservative cutting" so I have almost an entire foreskin and often mistake for uncut. Due to that I too agree let the man decide if he wants his body alerted forever. Sorry about the issues you had with your Dad and also no one teaching you as kid the basics of taking care of your penis.
I hope one day we can vote on this and make it that the only person that can approve and consent to have this operation done would be an 18-year-old male that gives consent for himself to have this operation performed on him. It is a barbaric practice that has been done for way too many years now that is not necessary Unless absolutely for a medical reason.
IT'S MY BODY. I SHOULD DECIDE IF I WANT TO GET CIRCUMSTANCE. SO IF I EVER HAVE KIDS, THEY WILL BE INTACT.
I was circumcised as a baby. I wish I could see what it's like to be uncircumcised. It does sound like it's a better experience as far as the self lubrication and everything. If I do ever have children of my own, I think I'll leave it up to them to decide. Thank you for sharing your story
Since 1996, the American Academy of Pediatrics' FULL reports, inclusive of its 2012 full report, reaffirmed in 2018, has been suggesting/recommending that MALE INFANTS AND CHILDREN BE LEFT INTACT so that THEY (the male person possessing the subject penis) can make the decision when/after THEY reach adulthood (age 18) and THEY can sign the surgery consent form themselves.
Exact. Circumcision of healthy babies is a terrible and cruel form of genital mutilation with no benefits. The genital integrity of babies is and should be sacred. The foreskin is the natural protection of the glans and the best part of the penis. The foreskin keeps the glans with a certain amount of moisture and lubrication to keep it healthy and in perfect condition.
My mom was an RN, and she ALWAYS said one thing about doctors: "Doctors will kill you....IF you allow them to." Do your own research; like you just said, doctors don't know everything....INDEED. I, too, usually have to educate my own doctors because they just don't have the time to stay on top of new and continuing medical advancements such as with this particular area of knowledge and expertise.
My dad didn't know either. He was shocked. Babies can't decide at 3 minutes old lol
Too bad my parents circumcised me as a kid
Me, too! Mother Nature knows how to design males! A circumcised penis is ugly and looks mutilated.
I was circumsized whe I was in my 6th grade.
@@freeedward8 women says the opposite thing
Sorry to hear that! 😳But in some cultures there are not that clever yet. They just think it’s the best but it’s actually NOT. To remove something God have created is a big sin. Maybe they will learn some day and we don’t have to discuss this crazy topic anymore.
