German girl is surprised that her new partner wants to get circumcised - but delighted with the result.
I'm Lena, a 29 year old from Germany. My partner made me aware of your site and suggested I was a good fit to provide another female contribution. He found Circlist very useful when researching his circumcision and introduced mr to it.
I work as a nurse and had dated a few uncircumcised guys before I met my current partner. I always thought a penis was supposed to smell like stale pee and that this was totally normal. I've seen both circumcised and a lot of uncircumcised penises at work, with greattly differing levels of hygiene, but never even thought about that it would be beneficial for all men to be circumcised. Circumcision to me was something you do from a medical necessity or religion, not for hygiene of even looks. Circumcision generally isn't that common in Germany and, especially in ethnic Germans, it's pretty rare. Actually not quite true these days - see our Germany page - ed..
Six years ago I met my current partner. When we met he was uncircumcised with a long and meaty but perfectly fine working foreskin. He had pretty good hygiene, considering he had all this foreskin, but a bit of smell was inevitable after a long day.
After dating for a few weeks he surprised me with the information that he had a circumcision appointment coming up, that he had booked shortly before we first met. He told me that he had wanted to get circumcised for a number of years now, because he was grossed out by the smell of his penis after a few hours and he liked the looks of a circumcised penis. I thought that he was completely out of his mind, after all he had zero medical or cultural reasons to get his healthy foreskin removed. I wasn't a big fan of the idea, but it was his dick, so I supported him through the process.
He booked a single visit appointment at a circumcision clinic and I dropped him off and went for a walk outside. After less than 45min he walked out of the clinic without his foreskin. The doctor asked him how he wants his circumcision and he decided on (using your site as a reference) a low and tight circumcision with his frenulum removed. (I'm using his support for the right terminology, I'm not that deeply into styles and techniques).
The healing went very well. He could carefully masturbate after about four weeks, we had penetrative sex for the first time after about six weeks. (He found ways to take care of me during the healing, don't worry. 😊 )
I was really surprised with the result. Not only do I much prefer the look of his penis now, he also doesn't really smell bad at all and I prefer handling it, especially during oral sex, now. Only thing is if I want to use my hands I need some lube. The difference during sex is amazing. It's crazy to realize that before it was just guys penetrating their foreskin inside of me, now I feel a lot more friction and I really like it.
Regardless of the fact that I want to keep him forever, I don't think I could ever go back to a uncut guy. We have already agreed that if we have a son one day, he will get circumcised too.
Greetings from Germany, Lena and Niko.
