One Tightly Circumcised Man's I was cut within the first few days of my life before leaving
the hospital. The year was 1956. The place, Ontario, Canada. I do not know even
to this day why I was cut except that I know my father was also
cut. I grew up believing and assuming that how my penis looked was normal because all of the males I saw nude, were cut. There were no foreskins in sight.
I learned about circumcision in school, probably in grade 7 or 8, during sex ed. class. I was about 12 or 13 at the time. I distinctly remember the first time I saw an intact penis. It was in the washroom at high school. There was a large immigrant Italian population in the area I grew up in. Although these children attended separate elementary schools they all came to the public high school. The Italian born males were all intact. I was immediately attracted to what I saw and wished that I had one of my own.
I had been so tightly cut that I had painful
erections beginning with the onset of puberty and the growth of my penis. When I
was very erect it felt and looked like I was about to burst my skin. It was so
tight and looked like it was thinned out, like a balloon that has been blown up
too far and was about to pop. Of course at that age one does not say anything to
anyone and just assumes that this is normal. |
I had done a lot of reading. I went and searched and finally found a copy of the "Joy of Uncircumsizing" read it in one evening, cried for a couple of days about what I had been missing and then told my partner that I was going to restore. I had no loose skin when I began. When I was erect the skin on my shaft would not move at all. I started with cross taping and popped the tapes every night
for awhile with nightly erections. After a couple of weeks I managed to get
through nights with the tape in place and knew that something had
changed. I then downloaded and printed one of the T tape picture books,
bought 2"micropore, and some elastic and clips to make straps. I quickly put
together the parafinaelllia (sp?) and worked to make a proper t tape. It took of
bit of trial and error but it happened. I was so excited that an erection
for taping was not a problem. I don't remember how long I t taped before I tried some other
methods. But I did try a film tube and didn't like it becuse of the urine which
stayed inside after peeing. I made a couple of phimo cones and didn't like them
either. This was all in the first year of restoring. I started in Nov 1999 and
by the summer of 2000 I discovered that I wasn't going to be able to keep the
tape on because I sweat so much in hot weather. I usually keep a tape on for 2-3 days, depending upon how much
tension I am wearing and if I want to have sex. Since I am also a nudist my taping schedule gets interupted if
I am going to a nudist resort or beach and do not want to have tape on. I do
sometimes however purposely wear an o ring to the nudist resorts. This ensures
that my glans do not see the sun. Sun burn or even a tan is not desirable on
ones glans. I have had to explain my ring on a number of occaisions at the nude
beach or resorts and do so without apology and have never been treated badly
because of it. One side effect of restoring has been an increase in penis
length. I was not prepared for this but am not disappointed by it. I gained over
1" (2.5 cm) in length and about half that in girth. I believe that had I not
been cut in the first place that my penis would have naturally grown to this
length during puberty. This increase took place during the first two years of
restoration and has ceased. I am, at this point in my journey, reliably and totally
covered when flaccid and I can pull my foreskin over my glans even when fully
erect for total coverage, but as yet it will not stay in place during
erection. Prior to restoring, I know now that, I had never had an
orgasm. I could ejaculate but that was all. I now experience wonderful orgasms
which involve my entire body and I also experience the gliding action of the
foreskin during sex. My glans have dekaratinized and have changed colour and I
now produce smegma if I remain covered and unwashed for more than 24
hours. My intention is to continue to restore until I can have skin remain on my glans even when erect. I can keep an o ring on now even when erect but I don't want to keep wearing an o ring in order to stay covered when erect. I am hoping that I can reach my goal by this time next year (so, by around November, 2005!) |
