Of those who are Jewish, the early Biblical circumcisions going back to Abraham (2000 B.C.) are closer to the European circumcisions today.

I was cut at birth in the US. I don't know what type of procedure was used but as you can tell from my pics, my foreskin slightly covers the head when soft, is still pretty loose when hard, and when pulled back tight still has more than an inch of the inner mucosal tissue. I'm pretty happy with it except for I would like to know what it feels like to have a frenulum.

I guess I was lucky with the Dr. that did me at birth. He left enough skin so that when soft, most of the head is covered. Even hard, I can still pull the skin over the head. Sometimes when it's cold or I've been working out, the head is completely covered and skin even hangs over the edge. I have a large head, so that must be a decent amount of skin I have. My bf is uncut and I love his foreskin.. I so wish I had it all!

i also have experienced both sides. I got circumcised a few ears ago and I can honestly say that I'm as sensitive as I ever was...there is one difference tho: my orgasms are way more intense! I do like that! I don't masturbate with lube, have done it a few times but not my cup of tea, prefer the "dry rub" and I can honestly say I wish I got it done earlier, my younger brother was circumcised at birth. But I had complications when being born so I was left alone. Do I miss my foreskin? No, not at all. I like my penis a lot more now (I was terrified to learn I had a chance of getting it done, but I investigated the procedure, talked to people who had it done before and they were very helpful in making my decision). None of the men I talked to who got circumcisd as adults had any complains like loss of sensitivity or anything. I also asked my friends, who are for the most part circumcised, if they had any loss of sensitivity or traumatic disorder cause they were done as children (Like the Intactivists try to convince us) and they just laughed at me and said no, most don't even use lube and are many have a high cut. I honestly love it, would never want to regrow it!

I live in the UK and was circumcised as a child. My cut is high and tight, with the frenulum left alone and with very little movement in the shaft skin; a style which would appear to be prevelant among several of my friends, who were circumcised, around the same time as me (1981) and by the same surgical team.

Interesting to read about the Euro cut. Never knew about it before. I was cut as a baby. Typical American Style. I think I prefer what I have over the Euro cut after hearing about losing certain bits. That being said... I wish I had NEVER been cut.

For a US cut that is definitely as close as you can get to what is often referred to as 'European style' (low and loose). The circumcision scar is completely covered by loose skin when flaccid. Your erection shot shows plenty of skin available to manipulate.

The 'US style' (high and tight) leaves little or no evidence of foreskin and, even when flaccid, the scar line is visible up the shaft. Erect the penis is almost completely smooth, with the scar line very high up the shaft.

IMO you have a very attractive result and, if I were to get circumcised, I would like mine to look exactly like yours!

I was cut as an adult. I was cut for cosmetic reasons, not medical. I wish I had known I could have selected the style I wanted. I was cut low. I would have preferred high and tight. I like the look of a visible scar line high up on the shaft. My frenulum was left intact. My scar is only about one fourth of an inch from the head. The remaining skin overlaps onto the corona when I'm flaccid. I would prefer it to not overlap onto the corona. I wish I had been circumcised at birth, I would probably would have had a high and tight circumcision.

Ok I think I understand this but can someone look at my albums of hard and soft dick and confirm what I have?

here are two pics to start off with...soft

https://www.lpsg.com/gallery/photos/a-view-of-my-soft-package-flopped-over-my-workout-pants.911817/

Hard
https://www.lpsg.com/gallery/photos/fat-ring-for-a-fat-cock-i-edged-with-this-on-for-30-mins.914990/

My circ scar is somewhere in between the two in terms of location...I can jack with or without lube and when fully soft my head is just out of my skin? If turtled the skin sometimes covers part of my head nut either way soft I do have some skin visible and some people think im uncut?

Surprisingly to me this is the first time I have come across the concept of diff styles of cut having names??

Wondering why the American style was invented and has become a nationwide surgical procedure in the States.

I realize that this is an old thread but I've been told it was promoted and became widespread as a way to cut down on masturbation. Losing the sliding action of the foreskin makes it more difficult to masturbate without lube. There are people who do, obviously, and there are those who can do it occasionally without running into irritation, but a lot of people need something to help.

I'm European and I was circumcised roughly 9 months ago. I did it to cure Lichen Sclerosus (also called BXO) and had to go low to remove as much as possible of the affected inner foreskin. I also decided to go on the tight side for cosmetic reasons. I suppose this is neither American-type (low, not high), nor European (tight, not loose).

I personally wouldn't generalize about European circumcision, as the procedure, though far from extinct, is reasonably rare over here (10-15% in the UK I believe) and performed mainly by cultures who normally circumcise, and less so for medical reasons. For the former case there is quite a lot of variation, while the medical cuts tend to be on the lower side as they are usually performed to cure problems which involve the inner foreskin, which has to be removed. As far as I am aware, the only condition for which the NHS recommends circumcision as a standard treatment is LS/BXO, which can only spread to mucosal tissue, so the cut naturally has to be as low as reasonably possible in order to remove the affected skin and potential areas that could be affected in the future. Other than that, I'd say that circumcision is fairly rare outside of these two groups, so there really is not such a thing as an Euro cut as there is the characteristic high and tight done in the US.

In terms of functionality and effects of the two types, I cannot comment on the differences between them, but I can say that the alleged loss in functionality and pleasure for the low and tight cut is massively exaggerated from my particular experience (and I developed LS after starting my sex life, so I experienced normal uncut sex as well). I firmly agree though that circumcisions should only be performed for medical reasons or/and with adult consent. If that is the case, then the circumcision rate should be massively lower than it is, and for the ones which have to performed, low cuts should be the predominant style. The only acceptable reason for a high circumcision is aesthetics and it should be performed to consenting adults only.

Actually, worse than nothing though, the European style seems more rational and relatively closer to the natural condition of a normal penis. Wondering why the American style was invented and has become a nationwide surgical procedure in the States.
an attempt to stop boys from masturbating

My European circumcision was performed by a German surgeon about 30 years ago. His technique was to cut high, but he did not touch the frenulum at all. This permitted me to regrow the lost shaft skin ! Most people can not tell that I was ever cut at all. So, I would say that my European cut was less damaging than the usual American cut!
the only way you can tell is the lack of sphincter

I think that the European Circumcision style is more radical than the one that is typical for the US. Most of the inner foreskin gets removed however depending on how much of the outer foreskin they remove as well it can be tight or loose. I read that in a medical book.

My circumcision is as far as I evaluate it low and tight. Almost no inner foreskin left and when hard, I can't move the skin around. Fortunately I have some parts of the frenulum left^^.
