Many of my circumcised friends think being uncut is unclean. It is very easy to keep an uncut penis clean. Remember that 80% of the world's men are uncircumcised.
I was circumcised three years ago for medical reasons. I cannot see the point of circumcision for the sake of circumcision - it seems like mutilation to me. I wouldn't wish it on anyone unless it was necessary.
I am very grateful to my parents for not having me circumcised. The very concept of it shocked me then, and it still shocks me now. My foreskin makes masturbation so much more pleasurable.
All Testimonials
49 responses"I am not circumcised. It is a great bonus for masturbation, as you have an almost self-lubing sheath. As far as being clean is concerned, as long as you "skin it back" when you bathe, you will be as clean as a cut male."
"I am not circumcised. I would not want to be circumcised, because I love my penis, and my body, and I would never want to change it."
