Can't get a thought out of my head

I know this will sound odd expecially at my age but since I was about 15/16 I just can't get over the fact that im circumcised, one day im ok with it but then there are times when I get so mad but I know it can't be changed but thinking this doesn't stop the anger. I have always had this thing about being healthy and natural and I feel like I am not whole in a way, sorry if I sound mental im not it sounds worse than it is written down, I just want to be natural. How can I get all this out of my head because Im scared Im going to think like this all my life. Is anyone here circumcised, how do you think? You won't be bothered like this.

well first off, u cant reverse it so its something ur guna have to learn to love.
secondly, u should love ur body the way it is whether u have a foreskin or not.

was it your parents choice that u were circumsized?

well maybe its because you feel awkward coz some of your friends aren't?

To be honest, nothing in the world is 'unnatural' the word doesn't exist. A more accurate way of saying it is 'not in original form'. Everything that people do is natural, human nature and natural accidents happen in nature ie injuries which make people not in there original form. Human nature is what has made you what you are, as in belief, culture (assuming you were circumcised at birth).

Sorry I can't help more than that!

I do like the way I am but Im like obsessed, a perfectionist and want to be whole, like if I had a sort of illness like asthma I wouldn't feel healthy (I don't though). I don't understand myself, but Im also mad because I didn't have a say in it. Reading this I do sound mental and confused but Im not honest, Im normal, well at least I come across as normal.

OCD or something?

lol u dont sound mental. i would probably be the same if something was done to my body without me agreeing to it.

theres nothin really anyone can say, it has to come from within yourself.

Its not fair tnhat someone didnt get to make the dicision himself, i think its cruel to do it to babies. Circumcision is pointless ritual, a brutal religious practice should be confined to the history books.

It's just a flap of skin - before you all start ranting about cleanliness and all that and desensitisation - I have a few friends who are circumcised and there is no difference - they can even pee standing up. Sure, sad you dont have an anteater no more but at least now it looks nicer when not erect, right?

to be honest with you, i think circumcised penises look sooo much better & cleaner, and more attractive. ive been with one person who wasnt circumcised and one who was & the guy who was looked so much cleaner & nicer down there!

There's a few websites you may want to have a look at, such as www.norm-uk.org who are a campaign group against any form of unnecessary circumcision. About 15% of the male population are circumcised, and an estimated 2/3s of those were not needed for medical reasons (Want my sources PM me). A lot of men ARE bothered about the fact they are circumcised. Quite a lot will have had no say in the matter and feel they wouldn't have wanted to be circumcised if given the option. What you feel is very natural.

FFS, don't post that nonsense.


Not everyone bends over and accepts stuff they dont want. If you want to change something, change it. Someone having a different view to you doenst make it nonsense

Ignorant.

You don't know how much trouble foreskin causes for some people and many doctors agree that every person should be circumsized.

i know guys who havn't been circumsized and they find their foreskin annoying, and are like "why is it there!?".
i know guys who have been circumsized and they don't really think anything of it.
