For the record - I've only "been with" dh and he's circed. I never really thought about his circ until I found this board. Now I get incredibly sad when I look at him, and fuming angry if I think about what he was robbed of. So, even though I've only seen pictures of an adult intact penis, that's what I prefer. I definately would prefer my dh was intact. Both my boys are intact and it just seems normal. I almost cried when I saw my cousins little boy.

I remember the first time I saw an intact penis, and discovered how it works...and I remember thinking "WOW, now I know God knew what she was doing!" Which of course, is also slightly depressing as DH parents had his penis skinned as an infant (his words btw...some might call it circumcised).

The scars are so obvious on his penis to me, my son is intact and when I see him and have seen pics of intact men online I know that is how it is *meant* to be! It's difficult after you know what a frenulum looks like, after you know that over half of the skin was removed to see any circumcised penis as normal ever again. Probably because it's not!

It didn't say "and my SON is intact" so I voted that I prefer the look of an intact penis and my child is intact ('cause she is! and so would she be had she been a boy).

Dh is intact and most of my friends' little boys are intact so intact looks normal (as it should!). Circumcised penises look sad and mutilated I can remember when circumcised penises looked more "normal" to me because my brothers were both circumcised, but having never been with a circumcised man, intact definitely is my preference

love and peace.

in terms of my preference, i didn't know how to answer really. on an infant boy, anything other than intact looks just wrong. but on an adult male, i guess i'm just used to circ'ed - it doesn't bother me as much. so i voted no preference, child intact.

DH and both sons are circ'd, I can't really say which I fine more aesthetic because I have never really seen an uncirc'd penis that I could stare at comfortably... and I really don't think penises are all that attractive either way. I do admit, since I'm so not used to uncirc'd penises, I do a double take to figure out why it looks different from what I'm used to. Just takes time to warm up to IMO. But, future boys won't be circ'd.

I voted no preference and my child is intact. The only penis I have seen IRL (besides my sons but he's a little kid) is my DH who is circ'd. DS is intact.

Nope

I'm not one who cares about the aesthetics of genitals, be they male or female.

They are all about function and nothing about look in my book...

As Kryten adequately put it in Red Dwarf

"It sorta has a dead chicken in the shop look doesn't it??"

Thank you. I'm not the only freak here who likes to look at genitals.

I voted the first option BUT, my first DS is Circumcised, luckily he is only half cu(easier to restore if he choses to) DS 2 is intact How many other moms would have choose that option if it was availble?

i enjoy the "performance" of an intact man much more, and i've got a bit of experience to back that up , because of that i enjoy the appearance more too.
my boyfriend is circed and it makes me sad for him. sad that he doesn't know what we're missing, and sad that he was robbed of part of his body.
