Why I am Not Circumcised Yet

Prized posessions... male reproductive organs. Prized posessions... male reproductive organs. WebMD

Highfield Road. Spilhaus Clinic. I stood outside a few months ago then turned back. There was no way I was going to let them put anything with a blade to my manhood. What if this happend? How about that possibility? A million unanswered questions bombarded me and I found I could not go ahead with it.

 

I flagged down the next combi and headed back home.

You see, I have seen all the adverts in the pictures. How getting circumcised will reduce my chances of getting HIV by 60% if I were to have unprotected sex. How that in turn protects my current and future partners.

I know how I’ll be cleaner if I’m circumcised and how that can protect my partner from HPV which causes cervical cancer.

I’ve seen the stories about Stunner and Winky D going to get circumcised, but I still have many questions, many uncertainties.

Firstly, they say that circumcision is the removal of the foreskin. Where on earth does the foreskin start and end? Cause there is a lot of skin there. Will they remove all of it? When they do the ads perhaps they should put diagrams there too- so that we can know.

Secondly, I understand that when you get circumcised it reduces your sensitivity. So apparently that means you will last longer during sex. Now, that’s all fair and fine for the dudes who come before they go in- but what if, like me, you already can go forever- before circumcision? Could it mean I’ll be sweating at it for hours before I come? 

Thirdly, is there a possibility that they will make a mistake and cut off a bit more than they should? If you’re going to wait six weeks for a wound to heal it had better be a wound that is full of promise of future pleasures not one that will leave you crippled down there.

Ok, perhaps I’m paranoid, but I only have one member, and I just need to be sure before I get it done. Someone help.
