Do you resent the fact that you were circumcised, has it robbed you of a full li!
Question: I would like to know how adult males feel about the fact that they were circumcised as infants. Do you think your sex life is less fullfilling, are you feeling incomplete or do you have rage towards parents who robbed you of a body part?
Trying to decide if this is something I should do to our son. I have heard good things for and against but do not want to make a bad decision... If you are happy you were cut please tell me why?
This is absolutely serious and I do not want a lot of immature comments.

I know some men for whom this is true. And check out web sites like http://www.norm-uk.org there are loads of them out there.
The fact is, men circumcised as babies can never get it back and will never know what they're missing. It's rare that a man would choose to get circumcised as an adult, but if it is then it's his decision so it's only his fault if he doesn't like it. But usually most men consider it and they really like the look and all so they're happy with it done.
Also a lot of men pretend they are happy they were cut at birth for dumb reasons like otherwise they would have an "ugly" penis or "smell bad" when in fact those aren't true and it really seems like they're just making themselves feel better.
Remember it also has risks and side effects especially when done on a baby...I would say leave him to make the choice, it's pretty obvious how you can get it done at any age but never undone...
dont do it i have my foreskin and i'm happy about it, try seeing it from your childs point of view, if someone asked you to cut your foreskin off when you had it what would you say, hhhhhhhhhhmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
I think you should let him do it when he is a teenager,so it will be his choice,so Whatever you do now will not backfire either way.Let him be for now.Cut people are a bit less sensitive but otherwise everything is normal and it doesn't make much difference.
adults who have undergone circumcision after some degree of having sex, usually complaint that the spark from their sex life is lost.
children who have had circumcision would never know since they would not have anything to compare to.
people who have had circumcision always feel that the act of sex is not pleasurable enough.
my advice to you, is to just let him be as natural as he is. let him decide when the time is right.
Please give your son the chance to make that decision about his own body. It will affect him for the rest of his life so he should decide. k?
dont do it. I know guys who were circumcised when they were infant and now searching advices and technique to regain their foreskin.
I'd have to say leave it up to him.
Given the number of websites devoted to foreskin replacement and regeneration, the best thing I can think of to do would be to put the money aside and discuss it very frankly with with him when you think he's old enough to understand.
Among other things, make it clear to him that he can discuss anything about health with you, no matter how embarrasing it might seem. Make it clear that he can he can also talk to his pediatrician about anything.
If he decides to have the circumcision done when you think he's old enough to make his own decision, the money is on hand and he'll trust his doctor enough to be able to discuss it and make the decision to or not to.
I've had friends who've had it done in their mid 20's and even late 40's for everything from aesthetic to health reasons. I have friends who've never done and prefer it that way.
Given the number of questions on this site from kids concerned with virtually everything about their reproductive organs, knowing he has a choice and people he can freely talk to will probably be more helpful than anything else.

I'm not cut and I'm very happy.
I would definitely resent my parents if they had me circumcised as an infant. It's MY body and they shouldn't abuse the privilige they have of caring for me when I'm helpless. There is no other part of an infant's body that we think is okay to surgically modify. I don't see why the penis should be any different.
I'm damed glad I'm circumcised. I feel completely complete.
I was not cut as a child, even though it was much more popular when I was born than it is now. I am extremely grateful that my parents had the good sense to leave me with all my man parts intact. So many men my age are now trying to restore their foreskins to get what I've had all along. http://www.norm.org
There is really no downside of allowing your son to make that decision for himself. The intact infant penis is actually easier to clean than the circumcised infant penis -- the foreskin is fused to the glans in the early years of life to keep what goes into his diaper from getting underneath. NEVER retract your young son's foreskin. He will do it himself when he is old enough for it to naturally detach. Many problems with the adolescent foreskin are caused by its having been pulled back at too young an age, before it was loose enough to do so.
If you circumcise him and he is unhappy with your decision after he grows up, all that is left for him is the restoration process, which takes as long as two years and even then does not completely replicate a natural foreskin. If you leave him intact and he is unhappy with your choice when he is older (not likely), he can have the operation done at any time. Let him decide -- it's HIS penis!
If they were circumcised at birth, they wouldn't know any different. It annoys me that men with foreskin seem to think they are so superior. My sonis an adult and was recently circumcised. He is so happy he was and his partner thinks it looks so much nicer too.
