I am at this point 31 years old, and my older brother because he was born in a different country didn't get circumcised. However my mom didnt seem to really care when they asked if i wanted my penis to be circumcised right at birth.

I’ve known what it’s meant for years but I didn’t realise what I’d truly lost and every now and then I go into a psychosis and have to be taken to the hospital, I have to rely on Antidepressants just to keep me going, My family say the same old stuff like “ohh it’s healthier” and I reply “well if it’s healthy why didn’t you have it done?” And they shout at me saying I’m ungrateful, It’s always in my mind and what makes it worse is that I’m the only one in the family forced to have it done, I can’t take this it’s unfair :(

Circumcision is truly evil for me, like the idea of slashing off not like the "foreskin" as they say but slashing off ur dick. There is no mark or delimitation of what the foreskin is. Is this at the end of the retracted frenulum? is this all the skin with the double layered inner and outer skin ? is this only the part who produce the smegma ? “Circumcision only remove the skin on the top of the tip" I’m sure it delete all the skin even 3 cm under the corona. And for all my circ mates even the frenulum. It’s a lie!

I’m convinced circumcision true intend is to reduce and delete every pleasure in the penis

They just want ur ridged band, frenulum and gliding motion gone. they want u to have a penis that u can’t jerk off without lube, all tight on itself and with ur glan permanently exposed that will die of dryiness. Don’t be shocked it’s circumcision true purpose. Precumming with a circumcised dick is so embarrassing 😂 people don’t even know how a dick works

The vessel that I live in that I am trapped in is the everything that gives me ptsd to everything that’s happened to it and I can’t change any of it. I am forced to live in this flesh prison forever essentially and it’s a constant reminder was done to be how I can’t change it or take it back. Hell I hate it. I hate living. I didn’t have to torture him every day with the memories. It looks like the fucking desert it’s disgusting. It’s like a dry light pink. I hate it. It’s disgusting. There’s nothing appealing about it whatsoever.

Supposed to look shiny and smooth it destroys me knowing that there are people that have natural dicks ones that have nice pink tips that look smooth moist. I’m stuck with a disgusting dry desert looking thing that’s two different fucking colors because it was chopped in half when I was born would’ve disgusting uneven line that makes more than the other

Like most here, I'm horribly botched. The difference though, is that due to my botched circumcision I ended up with extreme nerve damage, such that I can not have sex, masturbation is a 2-hour excruciating ordeal devoid of pleasure and I can't go even a single second without intense pain.

Would foregen even want a patient like me? There is a huge difference between "this wasn't my decision, I'd like to be restored, I'm healthy otherwise" and "I have extreme nerve damage to the point where I can not even be touched by a napkin or my underwear"

I don't mean during human trials obviously, I mean specifically as a patient once the surgery exists and has been done successfully.

Sorry just a bunch of questions..

1. Why do some circumcisions remove the frenulum and others don't?
2. What percentage of circumcisions remove it?
3. Does it remove sensation when they cut it, or does the skin under the frenulum keep what it had?

my nightmares and obsession across circumcision went down a lot knowing I got cut a one and half year old. I through I was cut at birth but I was not. My mom took care of me after the clinic. My dad didn’t cut me right away to be like him. I was cut due to phimosis or infection, probably 99% fixable or some lies but i’m glad I was intact for this long. I hope my penis developped a little more than I would be if I was cut at birth. It was unbearable, the thought of getting cut less than a week old made me litteraly sick. I don’t know if anyone would truly understand my feeling about this. It’s very odd but comforting in a way. Anyway my nightmares kinda stopped after I learned this

why is my tip so crackled and dry, i’m only 19 y old. How is circumcision so mainstream, don’t people see how disgusting keratinazed glans looks ? since thousands years also 😂 I hate all the cracking on my tip and my narrowed urethra

Someone else here said in a post all of this shit feels like they’re in the Truman show and I gotta agree that it’s exactly how it feels. It feels like ancient every way I am triggered by this shit every day whether it be hearing jokes about it or it just being mentioned in music or songs or video games or whatever it feels scripted like it was supposed to happen to me everything from happening in the first place when I was a baby too being recommended accounts by motherfuckers who fetishize this shit all calculated it feels that way like life is just a script and the suffering we all go through is just scripted

It genuinely does feel like that sometimes not even just for shit like this just life in general doesn’t feel real like I have so much shit has happened to me that it it just feels like it’s supposed to be this way like I’m a fucking character in a movie. It’s the exact feeling I get this is the biggest example of it though and the most painful.

I've been a long-term intactivist, more actively so in the last 4 years. I'm now manufacturing and selling devices to help guys with Phimosis (I know this won't be of benefit to many guys here but you can check other posts on my profile for the website if you're interested) - many of whom have been advised to get circumcised prior to seeking advice on the internet - and my attention is turning now to guys who have already been circumcised. I purchased a couple of Manhoods to test them out, and got a couple of guys I knew who had been cut to test them as well. They weren't keen. My feeling is that the design and material of the ones I tried were not optimum; At the very least, there is room for an alternative design and material that some may prefer. Yet despite what I consider to be weaknesses, the testimonials they have are monumental - it's a 150-page download, so there is clearly a benefit even to their design. So even a small improvement in some ways or different approach will definitely benefit some people.

So I've tested quite a lot of fabrics and narrowed it down to one, and have been experimenting with a couple of different design variations. With the fabric I've chosen, even I can wear it with my foreskin retracted all day, whereas if I keep my foreskin retracted in normal clothes I can't stand it for more than a couple of hours. So it should help with dekeratinisation of guys who were circumcised quite a long time ago, and it will definitely help guys who find having no foreskin uncomfortable in clothes, or even naked in bed. The design of the sleeve itself is close to sorted, but how to attach it so that it stays on is my main area of outstanding research, a problem that Manhood still has for me despite measures in their design to help it stay on.

So I'm looking for guys in or near London, UK, to be prototype testers.

It's very important to note this is not just about me selling a widget: There is a critically important political angle to this as well. When I am selling devices to foil a common excuse medical professionals to use to justify recommending circumcision, AND selling devices to circumcised guys to either help restore sensitivity, or protect them from excessive stimulation from normal clothes, that gives me a much stronger platform to stand on to make a noise. I think sadly, that the founder of Manhood, although he has done an interview with POTS, isn't really an intactivist campaigner as such; whereas my goal is to be much more proactive, and I already have a long track record of relatively high-profile, and successful, human rights campaigning.

So, anyone in or near London, especially South East London, please feel free to DM me if you'd like to be a tester and help refine a product that I hope will have some benefit to many guys who've been circumcised.

The concept of making and joining a community dedicate to fetishizing. The mutilation of someone’s genitals is absolute fucking disgusting to me.. imagine if there was a female genital mutilation sub, and a bunch of dudes were talking about how sexy it is when women get their genitals mutilated, there would be a fucking uproar, but since this is about dicks being mutilated, no one gives a shit and it’s fucking bullshit. I just can’t understand how one genders trauma and mutilation is seen as bad, but the others is not.

And it goes far beyond stuff like this like when a man or boy even is sexually abused it’s reacted to so differently you’ll have motherfuckers saying that young boy is lucky that he got ass assaulted if the abuser is a woman I just can’t grasp the concept of just because it’s a man or a male organ being mutilated it’s different than a woman or a female organ is mutilated because it’s not it’s the same exact thing shit like this, pisses me off to no end to where I get uncontrollably like fucking mad I would not be able to be in the same room as people like this. How dare you fetishize my assault that was done to me as a fucking infant it’s fucking disgusting man

WARNING:GORE

So basically, they take the shaft skin and put it on your glans (head of your penis). I want to get this surgery but modified, so I have gliding motion and full soft and (hopefully) erect coverage. I don't care how painful or expensive it'll be. I'm trying to find this particular method. All I care for is it looking like a real human body and not this fake raped body that isn't mine. I don't care anymore. I just want a real body.

She said I was one and a half year old, that I coulnd retract. I said that’s normal until puberty but she said I had it infected I don’t believe her, she told me it’s cleaner too all the gaslight and I explained to her without details why it’s barbaric for no reason and pedophile to me she seemed to understand. She said my brother was cut a 3 day by a jew just to be like me and my dad, Almost snapped but didn’t argue much, I hope my little brother don’t have a botched cut, mine was done in a clinic

It’s probably the worst thing that’s affecting me besides having this done to me in the first place, but I absolutely hate it. I hate the fucking chemicals that flow through my body that would make me want sex or be attracted to people with dicks sexually. I wanna get rid of it. I hate it. It makes me feel so horrific, especially when I see someone attractive only to see they’re nit mutilated. I fucking hate it. I hate it so much. I just wanna get rid of it. It’s so painful. I just I can’t. I hate the shit It makes me look at.

Ever since I found out about their Christian pedophile founder being pro MGM, I’m never eating their products again. No pop tarts no Frosted Flakes nothing ever again never ever again I can’t support them because of what they’re founder did and the man they named after and all your product should be avoided at all costs

So I saw a post on another sub about a YouTube thumbnail for AI generated song about circumcising baby Hitler I just don’t know why people find shit like this funny it’s genuinely disturbing it obviously not the Hitler part obviously joke about mutilating a fucking baby. I just can’t comprehend why people find this shit funny and it pisses me off. I just fucking hate motherfuckers like this I would not be able to be in the same vicinity as them because I would have to resist the urge of punching the shit out of them. I genuinely despise people who make you like this to that extent. My sexual trauma it’s not funny.

I was looking up what kinds of surgeries are recommended to be included when you provide a new medical provider with your medical history. I obviously don't consider MGM to be a surgery, since it's more like hacking off someone's finger than a necessary medical intervention! So I was curious to see if it's mentioned on websites that tell you what to include in your medical history. I didn't include words like "circumcision" in my search query because I didn't want to bias the results. In case anyone's curious, I didn't find any sources that specifically mentioned MGM.

So I included the word "pediatric" before "surgeries", which led me to this website. And I noticed that on this page, they recommended parents tell their son before taking him to be mutilated that MGM is "a surgery to help with the extra skin on your penis". Reading that made me sick to my stomach. It's ruined my day, frankly. How dare they write something like that? I understand that they want parents to have some way of explaining it to a child without having him freak out too much (because obviously he would, who wouldn't??), but phrasing it this way is just downright evil. It's reinforcing this bullshit idea that the foreskin is just a "useless flap of skin", rather than the extremely valuable tissue that it is. It's the most sensitive part of the human body and contains much, much more than just skin cells. Calling it "extra skin" only furthers this lie that it's unnecessary for a man to have! And especially worryingly to me, it downplays the severity of the mutilation in a way that makes parents who are on the fence about mutilating their son think that it's really no big deal. Maybe such parents will read it and decide to force their son through MGM. Not to mention the fact that it's included there on a list of important and medically beneficial surgeries as if it belonged with them!

Anyway, do y'all think it's worth trying to do anything about this? Could we contact the hospital and explain our position on MGM? Obviously we can't convince them to stop performing MGM, but maybe we can get them to remove it from this page or at least change the wording to make it more realistic. Or maybe add a disclaimer so the parents are actually informed on what MGM is. What do y'all think?

What I will going to tell would be sensitive for most people here. I just want to explain how this situation is far worse than you can imagine.

I know that getting circumcised is bad in every way. But, while most of you, who got RIC are discussing the possible damage it gave (to brain)* during getting it as an infant, the whole pyschological condition of children is far worse on the other countries.

After a quick search, I learned the circumcision that is getting done by non-doctors has got banned in my country, after couple of months I got it.

During my childhood, I remember my grandma and my mom was sometimes discussing when I should get circumcision. And I was always thinking that the thing called circumcision would be a spiritual thing or just a symbolic thing that they just do incision at the tip.

When I was in my grandma's village for the summer vacation at 8, one day when I was playing street games with my friends there, bunch of young man came near us and wanted me to go with them. They were trying to convince me for some reason while walking. Like, I have to be brave and be men or some religious talks, like everyone has to give something to be with god, like a present. Because of that nature, I started crying from fear. When we arrived to a house, all the tools was already there, then they suddenly grabbed my arms and legs, my relative did all the procedure and used no anesthesia during it. It was the worst pain that I had in my 20 year life. Last thing I remember before I faint was they were all chanting some religious song to shout down my crying and all. After I wake up, I remember they were talking each other that it doesn't look normal, then I begged to them to revert back what they did. After all that, they brought me to my house, I spent one painful month in there. When I asked my mom about the all procedure, she said I would get it in hospital anyways. After all this, I was often just staring to my penis and trying to figure out what exactly they did to me. I was believing that erections (that I wasn't getting), glans and visible stitch marks all around it would heal and it will go back to its normal look, but it didn't. Now I'm left with a glans that has almost zero sensitivity, and CI-0 skin with no frenulum. It looks far worse than anybody's penis with all of its marks and the tightness feeling. That feeling always reminds me the sacrifice that has given to god, which I don't believe anymore. Even I'm now non-religious, a part of my body still belongs to that religion, like it didn't go further in life with me and stayed restirictive. Maybe that was the goal. To make things mechanically hard to use and impossible to change, since they can't hold the ideas. To mark.

(*) edit

I want to know if you had atleast more pleasure compared to jacking off. Preferably guys without frenulum

Seriously what the fuck am I supposed to do? I live in a fucking body that doesn’t even fucking belong to me. It’s been stolen several times. I fucking hate it. What am I supposed to do? I have nothing. I don’t own it. It’s literally a fucking prison how is anyone else do this to another human being especially at birth what the fuck do I do? I can’t take it back. It’s already happened happened 23 years ago and there’s no changing it so what the fuck what the fuck am I supposed to do? There’s nothing I can do. I’ll just be trapped in this fucking flesh prison until the day I die. I fucking hate it. I hate it here. Hate the people who did it to me. I hate living in a country that allows this shit it’s fucking bullshit. I fucking hate it. I just hate everything.
