Once upon a potty for boys... is he circ'd?

post #1 of 9
Thread Starter 
This is purely out of curiosity, but does anybody know if the book Once Upon A Potty for boys, has a circ'd or intact boy? I'm not looking to buy it or anything, but I know that it comes with a little boy doll that has a penis. I was just wondering if he was intact. I think it would be cool if he was, because it would promote the intact penis as normal.

I never thought to check that! But I have the book, and his penis is a semicircle without any details. It looks exactly like his nose in the profile illustrations.

I guess they didn't want to go into that much detail! Probably a good thing.

I actually emailed the manufacturer once about this doll. He seemed not to understand the question. He kept asking what I meant and repeating "The doll has a penis and a scrotum." I think he was pretending not to understand because he didn't know which answer would upset me, because seriously, who hasn't heard of a foreskin? Even if you haven't, Google is your friend. So does the doll appear to have one or not? It's not a difficult question.

Long story short, I don't know.

I just asked a seller on ebay, who is selling the doll and book set, whether he was circumcised or intact. I said my little boy was intact, so I was just curious. Because I would want to buy a doll that was intact too. I will let you know when I get a reply

I have the DVd and the book and honestly since it is a cartoon drawing they do not get down to that detail. It might as well be a thumb. LOL

However you can search the book on Amazon and click on teh "more" link under the title and see the illustration.

My nephew had the doll when he was little. You can't tell. The penis is just a stuffed tube of fabric. Just as a PP said about the cartoon, it might as well be a thumb.

The ebay seller emailed me back. He also said you cant really tell. But seeing as to how it looks like a thumb (straight and smooth looking) I would say he is intact. That is my guess. That is what an intact penis looks like more then a circed one, anyhow.

Author is Israeli IIRC. May be intact enough looking, but I doubt it was intentional.
