Circumsexuals ?

[Matt Cohen]

I'm not turned on by it, as I prefer to have sex with women rather than guys. But I am very curious to know who is cut and who is uncut. I always like to know.

Circumsexual, here. I was circumcised as a teenager (story in another discussion chain). I remember the old me with fondness, but the piece of skin I don't regret loosing. My buddies have been both cut and uncut and I've enjoyed both, but a cut cock turns me on faster and more.

I am also kind of fascinated by the surgical procedure. There used to be a Web site (long gone now) where uncut guys would wrestle and the loser would get circumcised. Watching those videos was a turn on.

Now, when I have the chance to mess with an uncut guy, the first thing I want to do is dock.

Does anybody out there get turned on by circumcision (talking about it, the appearance of a cut dick, have you or your partner been cut ?). If so, maybe you are a "circumsexual".

I know that the subject of circumcision is a highly emotive one and while everyone is entitled to their opinion, please respond constructively.

So, who out there considers themselves to be a circumsexual and what turns you on the most about a cut dick ?

Definately circumsexual. I'm Turkish and was brought up with cut cocks. An uncut cock does nothing for me and I will not go with an uncut guy.

Agreed. Permanently exposed helmet with a scar looks more masculine!

Why do you think it looks more masculine? How can it look more masculine if it's natural for a man to have foreskin?

I'm purely asking out of curiosity. I don't have a preference either way and certainly have nothing against a cut penis.

Hi turk23cm,

Good to read your post on circumcision. I agree, won't go with a guy unless he's cut. I think it's great in Turkey that circumcision is celebrated for the boy and part of growing up into a man. It must be strange living here where circumcision is not common.

Hard to explain I guess and it's personal opinion. I just think uncut looks "boyish" and cut looks more masculine and defined.

I feel more masculine being cut. I walk to showers naked with the helmet bare and piss slit showing. I feel more masculine in uk in front uncut guys.

Due to my own dislikes and my husbands eye catching RIC result, I've gotten onto the idea of getting cut again. Went through the hoops to see a specialist but fell back at the ridiculous cost. Pending saving

Makes me very envious. Ironic with the removal of skin, but I feel I'll embrase masculinity a lot more if I got the chop - the potential is exciting, I just know I'll love it. I yearn for that 'leveling to the edge' type session and orgasm that I as uncut, have trouble waiting through

Wish I had more friends to discuss with, its such a turn on. Keep my mind on it till it can happen. Uncut porn is a big no, shame the #cut tag isn't more popular!

If any of you guys want to chat about circ, add me to Kik. Adelaide_lad88

I've actually had an ex partner (female) kinda say the same thing. She used different words, and I think may have already had a preference for cut dick for some reason. I asked her why she like mine and one of the reasons was that it was masculine looking. I didn't really know what that meant, aren't all dicks masculine?? LOL.

It's a good question. First I don't have a problem with foreskins or men who are proud to be uncut. The reason I think being cut is more manly or masculine is because the foreskin covers the helmet and only peels back to expose it when the penis is erect and 'ready'. With a cut penis the helmet is exposed and visibly ready permanently. Without the foreskin, overtime the helmet naturally flares which is a look that I really like. To me having a visible scar on the most sensitive part of a mans body, only increases the idea of masculinity and brotherhood between cut men.

Cut as a kid and having suffered a lot from it (I was for many many years the only cut guy in my class in France), I definitely prefer an intact cock. This is actually why I am now restoring my foreskin.
I find nothing more arousing than a full erect covered cock with overhang !
Besides its natural functions, the foreskin offers many more possibilities of fun foreplays (eg docking...).

So definitely a foreskinsexual here !

What are you talking about "only peels back to expose it when erect and ready"? I can peel back my foreskin anytime i like and leave it back if i want, hard or soft.

I want to spend a few minutes raising a cultural issue about the "masculine looking" comments here. Circumcision tends (not always but it tends) to predominate in the most sex divided, gender-stratified cultures in the world. Let's leave the US aside for a moment. If you look around the world, circumcision tends to originate and thrive in cultures where the men and women are most divided by culture and by practice, and differentiated into strictly separate roles in the culture. For example, it originated in the nomad cultures of the middle-east, and continues in Moslem countries, where women and men are very separated. It moved through Africa with the Bantu invasions of herding peoples. Even the Jews started circumcising during their nomadic period, and in the Orthodox, maintain a very sex-stratified culture. So it is logical that a Turk, from his gender-divided culture, would feel that a circumcised cock looks more masculine. At this point my question would be, is that the kind of masculine you want to identify with?

Now to the US. Circumcision was introduced here first in the 1880's-90's, as a "cure" for masturbation and also homosexuality because it took away some of the pleasure of playing with the penis. It gained in numbers during the health and sanitation panics after WWI with the influenza epidemic. It became dominant after WWII when GI's got circumcised in the tropical Pacific campaigns to avoid irritations and infections. They had no antibiotics at the time. The rise in the number of Jewish doctors after the war didn't cut down on the numbers either. So our history of the practice is different here. But I would argue that the "masculine" image is also tied up in it. The 1950's, when circumcision grew wildly, was a very gender-divided time.

Let me say that I have to agree with the "masculine looking" posters. Many of my women partners, upon seeing a foreskin for the first time in real life, say things like "it looks more like me, less harsh and different, more like we are part of the same physical thing." If you see masculine as being strictly divided from the feminine, a scarred, cut cock IS more masculine. However, if you understand that men and women are united as well as divided... that sex is a fluid kind of passion of giving and taking, of soft and hard, of pounding and gentle stroking; and above all that a penis was made with its foreskin for better fucking, and for pleasure for both sexes, then you might have another view of what looks "masculine."

On the other hand, you may just like what you are used to.

This is the most logical answer .

Excellent post Pete!! Hopefully you made some people think...

I think circumsexuals get a bad rep. If circumcision is for you it's something that should be understood, it's a personal choice and as long as it is safe I don't see why anyone shouldn't explore that part of sexuality. There are those who get off on forced or underage themes that are inappropriate and I think that is where that part of BDSM culture is scrutinized. Yes, I'm aware there are those paedophiles with such illness, but when adults decide and explore forms of genital modification and genital cutting there is a standard of proceeding.
I personally prefer my genitals intact and had to fight for that when I was young and in a state run home. However, meeting a friend in the BDSM world I got to learn about it, doms and subs, and role play. It's fascinating. My friend who is a dominant wanted to play with me and taught me about the culture, the unfortunate image that normalized sexuality has pressed upon it, such as that awful "Fifty Shades of Gray" novel that is nothing more than a story about rape and a stain on the culture. And what I found was there is a vast exploration of understanding and intimacy. Exploring circumcision play was one of them, me role playing as a sub and appeasing the dominant in a glory hole circumcision scene. It dealt with a lot of trust and physical strain. In the end it was gratifying for him, not so much for me and not to say it wasn't gratifying he got something out of it. Instead, it was very pleasing he found pleasure and not being judged by me as he was a circumsexual. I got to understand the intimacy of Master and pet. That was the point. For him, his personal views were unique. He likes cut, and like me he's not circumcised. He felt subs should be "clipped" to please their masters. He was turned on by the notion of submissive sacrifice. So, it wasn't so "everyone needs to be SNIPPED" as it was more accepting differences in body image. It is mutilation of no consent is given in my eye, but it's a body modification in this scene in accepting that "gift" as he called it, a pathway to manhood, as he also called it. And that was another curious notion that submission isn't always a matter of establishing one to be less of a man. Rather, as he put it, it shows a different side of a man in the personal tolerance level and trust.

In the land of fetish, all is acceptable unless it does significant lasting harm. I find the significance that he attributes to cutting strange, but a fetish is a fetish. Circumcision of infants or children or anyone unable to give INFORMED consent is an entirely different matter.

Definitely circumsexual here - I think I realised I was circumsexual before I was homosexual (or any other kind of sexual).
