i have never saw an intact penis at all. every penis i have ever saw has been cut. to me i think it would be weird, as in different.

Nope, I wasn't worried about it. I would have been more worried had his penis looked like one of those "botched" penises due to a circumsion. http://www.circumstitions.com/Botched4.html Honestly, look at the different pics of the penises on there and look at your husbands. I bet you will notice the scar and some of the other "issues" that occur with circumsision. The intact penis is created perfect. It is not gross, disguisting or weird. Promise.

Well, of course it seems different the first time you see one, but after a while you realize that it is the cut penises that look weird.

I have a european father and have seen many renaissance statues and such (ok, also my older sisters copy of playgirl ); the intact penis was what I was used to....

Then I saw a circ'd guy for the first time when I was a teenager : . It looked like an upside down alien head between the guys legs to me.

I studied art and have seen lots of penises (art history, life drawing, etc.) The intact penis looks like a normal body part, it seems like part of a human, and it will match the rest of his body. The circ'ds penis is different and exposed. Intact men totally in the buff always seem pretty modest too, the head only comes out to "play," circ'd guys are always just there.

If you want to know what an intact penis looks like check out Michaelangelo's David, Adam in the Sistine Chapel, Donatello's David, or any other european sculpture.

This is almost exactly what my sister told me. Our brother is intact, as was her first serious boyfriend. She told me the first time she saw a cut penis, she was a little freaked out and couldn't really figure out how it would work.

One of my French friends said that she had a hard time getting used to her American boyfriend's circumcised penis, as it "seemed like something was missing". Well, yeah...

I prefer non-circ'd, actually.. not that I would ever not be with someone due to their parents' lack of knowledge. (This statement isn't a UA violation, is it?)

Out of total utter curiosity, what is your dh's opinion of sex uncirc'd versus circ'd? And what about you? Is he happy with the decision?

someone in here has a great signiture that says : "having a foreskin is a good stupid woman filter".

I too think the circ'd penis looks sad, angry & raw. While I love my husband who is circ'd, i would never hold it against him and make him feel badly about it. When someone really loves you, they love you warts and all. If they can't they don't deserve you.
