As a European I don't understand why so many American men are circumcised, considering America's Christian background.
Almost no man has a circumcised penis where I live.

@helenS Cultural pressures, I guess. I was born in Europe, and always felt out of place growing up in 1970s Australia. It became a fixation for me and I finally had it done at 38. My wife loves it - she dislikes uncut men - and we had her two boys done, for no other reason than to look like me and start a family tradition.

@UpForItNow Thank you! There are many different types of penis circumcision. Which one is yours, please?

@helenS Hgh and tight, done by the sleeve resection method.

@UpForItNow Thank you, I looked it up (that method, what it means).

@UpForItNow "In this procedure, the foreskin is slid back along the shaft of the penis so that a freehand cut can be made around the shaft at the point where the scar line will be placed. The foreskin is then returned to cover the glans (head of the penis) and a second cut is made around the shaft at the same position along the penis as the first cut. A longitudinal incision is then made between the two cuts around the circumference of the penis and the strip of skin is removed. The edges are then pulled together and stitched."

@helenS Yeah. I was under a general anaesthetic so didn't observe it, thank God. People think it's just a snip, but it's a surgical redesign of the whole penis. Our boys had a different method, I was directly involved, administering the sedative inhaler. So proud of my brave boys.

@UpForItNow How old were your boys when they were circumcised, please?

@helenS 10 and 8.
