One could assume a random sampling of males I know would yield fewer foreskinned friends than circumcised, but of the five males I asked to talk about their penises, four are uncut.Įdward (24, graduate student), Nathan (28, IT), Matthew (31, graduate student) and Hoss (26, Lawyer) were all brave enough to shed some light on a few of the questions I had about being American males with foreskins.Įmma Reaux: Okay guys, I don't have a penis. Tell me what it's like to have one.Įdward: 95% of the day you don't notice it. Every now and then, you have to adjust, due to sitting in an awkward position or an involuntary erection. Also, it makes peeing easier, and you can write fun things in the snow. Nathan: Zippers are a little dangerous at times, but other than that I really have no complaints. Matthew: Women like it when I put it in them, which works great because I like putting it in them. N: When I was seven, I walked in on my best friend changing and noticed he was not quite the same as I.ĮR: What conversations did you have with your parents as a child, teen, or adult about not being circumcised? Hoss: The world is my toilet! Also, my penis has gotten me into a lot of trouble, because it has an amazing ability to control my thoughts.ĮR: When did you first notice that not every male child has a foreskin?Į: The first time I saw my best friend in elementary school naked. H: My mom is Jewish which makes it all the weirder to have an anteater, but she said she and my dad had a conversation and thought that circumcision was barbaric and did not want to put my brother or myself through it, though obviously we would not have remembered.

N: My parents were not very open about sexuality or anything related to it, but they made sure I knew how to keep myself clean and healthy. M: I was actually born in Europe, where most people are uncut, so this was never brought up.ĮR: Why did your parents choose not to circumcise you? (If you haven't asked, call up right now and ask your mother!) #Nifty gay young freinds circumcised how to#

N: My parents decided not to have it done for multiple reasons. Since my first conversation about this with you, I have learned that my father is not circumcised. I was also born premature, so any unnecessary risks to my health were avoided, especially surgical procedures like circumcision. Neither of them had any strong religious convictions either way and decided together that they didn't want it done.
