Im ashamed of being circumised, always have been! My 6 inches dont help my confidence either ![]()
My husband is circumcised. Im not sure what there is to be ashamed of? In regards to size, 6 inches is bigger than average.
Iāve got a friend whoās husband apparently says his life was ruined by a botched circumcision thatās left him unable to feel anything and made his penis smaller⦠i personally believe unless for medical reasons, circumcision is body mutilation up there with female genital mutilation and shouldnāt be put onto men or babies unless itās needed.
First off 6" is considered above average. I like being circumcised personally - however havenāt had any issues. It is all about how you use the tool man. Donāt worry about it and enjoy life
Iām sorry that you feel shame about being circumcised. Do you live somewhere that it is not common?
I went through a phase where I was reading more and learning about the possible lost pleasure from being circumcised and feeling like I missed out on something, but at the end of the day I donāt know what Iām missing, I like my penis, my wife likes my penis, and it is what it is.
As to the other part - 6" is 100% within the range of common averages, depending on source, if not on the larger side of average.
It sounds like you may have some other things going on that impact confidence all around and there are lots of professionals who would love to help you explore and grow beyond that!
Unfortunately there s nothing that can be done to give you a new bit of skin so you need to come to terms with it. Why feel ashamed of it? {Its not as if many people will ever know)
Same here, I agreeā¦. ![]()
As a man whoās had his foreskin for a fair few years Iām soon to have it removed for medical reasons. I wonāt be crying over it when itās gone, be happy whatever its size. Itās awesome we are lucky to have one we can write our names in the snow and pee standing up. Have a hole in your pocket and play with yourself while women would get a strange look with a hand down their skirts (skirts with pockets are awesome, just saying)
I know what Iām saying is likely not to make any difference to you but! You are great as you are, Your penis is great. (Fact) and mic drop every man should show their penis some love just because.
I agree with you. My foreskin overhangs my penis to the point it covers the pee hole even when Iām hard. Sure makes insertion easy. However, a cut penis is also nice looking since the head is always visible. Yes, I look at other guys. Why not?
As am I @Patty09 - in fact on the 9th of April. It was supposed to be 26th of March, then 19th of March and hopefully on the third appointment will actually have the operation.
Will I become ashamed of how it will look ? certainly not. Am I ashamed that I am only 5" on a very good day ? again, certainly not.
Not trying to belittle you, or your worries & concerns at all, and I hope you find a way to become more comfortable with yourself.
I am having to put things in perspective for my situation, I do not want the procedure but If I donāt have it, then my bad situation will become very serious and Iāve just caught it in time. However when itās healed in a few short months, I will be proud of it and Iām sure my good lady will be too as not much has worked for almost three years now.
Also my two best pals are supporting me and said they will be pleased to see what it looks like too. I think you also need a friend or two to talk to about it and youāll then find everything is fine.
The only people I can talk to and in a sense will understand for me are people like @Simon_101 on the forum. Most of the men in my circles look like the wicked witch at the end of Oz when you even come close to talking about sex and menās health (or a penis thatās touched the coolness of the North Sea)
All the best Simon I wait for an update on how it goes. The soreness for me after sleeping erections is the most painful to deal with as the skin breaks and never really gets time to heal.
Iām waiting for that letter everyday, You are built of stronger stuff as you took a little longer to go see the Dr I went after I realised it wasnāt thrush.
(manly hug)
@JGood and @Simon_101, wishing you both all the best with your forthcoming procedures ![]()
@Patty09, a few minutes on this forum will tell you that the people who post here love a penis in all shapes and sizes! Itās what you do with it that matters. I hope you can accept what you have and love yourself ![]()
I am cut and the majority of partners love it ⦠itās cleaner better to handle whatās to be embarrassed about ? X
Thanks for that thought, I assumed I was weak by putting off medical help, for more years than I should admit.
I keep referring back to the injury sustained after having sex too soon after the swelling and infection from the insect bite started to go down. My foreskin tore too badly (thought my o/h was on a period) and right then I should have got help but ignored it. The resultant healing was an uneven opening the size of a pencil that will not stretch. I then ignored it until an open chat with my friend C.
Iāve said before that I am so lucky I have really only two real best friends now and can talk about anything, and I mean anything⦠One day at Cās house it ended up discussing sex/ penises and my injury. He had a look and feel saying thatās no way to carry on, that was the catalyst for me to face reality.
That was two years of major pain and all that goes with it, canāt get a full erection as no room to expand, cleaning issues, dribbling wee etc, itās not great ! So six months after that⦠(I know !) I went to the GP and now the operation is scheduled. So it is nearer three years in total that Iāve suffered, but difficult to admit that really, even to myself.
But guys, thereās more too it really. That chat I refer too, I also had a look and feel of his penis too, that would freak most people out but there you go. I was astounded at how his foreskin went back easily (without using both hands
) and even when he got a bit erect it still glided back & forth easily. We left it there at that time, but had a massive hug and a cry at the realisation of my lost life.
Now on researching it, I realise I have obviously had Phimosis since decades ago, probably grade 4 out of 5 all my adult life and didnāt know it. If Iād had more partners who noticed, or even a similar play with a guy in my 20s for example, I may have realised this sooner and had a better life.
PS - not to detract from this thread, but for consistency in my LH posts. Since that chat which was solely a āmedicalā one, a few months later on we have āplayedā on a couple of occasions and found it good fun and an awesome way to bond even closer. Nothing to hide either, weāve both told our partners too., but it isnāt anything serious anyway.
Personally I love being cut. It comes down to preference but i think it works on me - ha ha. Also 6 inches isnāt something to sneeze at. Its not the size of the boat but the motion of the ocean.
I got circumcised at 22 and am really happy with it. Itās best decision I made. Depending on your cut can make your penis appear shorter than before but eventually it stretches out and you regain the lost length. Try to embrace it if you can!
Are you in the uk?
Donāt be ashamed of your circumcised cock, they are pretty and I find them incredibly sexy.
Many of my friends prefer circumcised and there are many uk women who prefer them despite only between 15% and 20% being cut.
My partner is circumcised and very proud of it, heās said that most of his exās preferred circumcised especially for blowjobs.
First of all thereās no shame in 6ā. And second thereās no shame in being cut.
Me and my husband are from the UK. We got him circumcised only a few years ago and would never want to go back. We get so much more pleasure from it now the head is exposed and the skin is tight when heās erect, sex feels so much better without it - plus its prettier to look at ![]()
I last posted on this thread in April just before the operation, I am 55M btw.
Now a few months down the road it has healed fine and gentle activity has resumed. My partner (60F) says that it feels no different in her, and is happy that we can both enjoy it again.
The tight foreskin being removed has allowed a slightly better erect girth in her opinion, at least visually, and she quite likes the new appearance.
It is fairly loose when flaccid though, with partial coverage if itās cold or Iām sitting for a long time. But if I start to move around or even the slightest touch, the head pops out.
