Writing Circumcised or uncircumcised? Help

[MelanDelora]

Hello,
I don't know if a discussion like this is allowed here but here goes.
I'm in the midst of writing an erotic novel and I need opinions on whether I should depict penises as being circumcised or not.
It's an internal debate I'm having; I already know that I shouldn't force anything just to please the readers.
I'll explain below in terms of the pros and cons.

Circumcised
- Pros:
- I don't know where this came from but the biggest pro is that I personally find penises like this to be more aesthetically pleasing
- I have some limited experience with this type, so I'd like to think that I can write about them better
- What I'm leaning towards the most
- Cons:
- Biggest con is that I know (or more like read) that this is basically mutilation of the penis, which is bad, and I don't want to send this kind of message; that I support body mutilation
- I know I don't need to care much about this, but I also risk having male (or females, who knows) readers get all disgruntled over this

Uncircumcised
- Pros:
- No harmful body messages
- Natural, so may fit better in a medieval-like setting?
- Make uncircumcised men happy too
- Cons:
- I don't really have experience with this type of penis so I fear writing something obviously wrong (like I don't know how stretchy the skin is and stuff or how it works)
- Not that attractive IMO (maybe only when hard? IDK)

This was pretty embarrassing to write, but I want to hear some opinions from both sides if possible.

You can borrow my husband's penis after the pandemic is over, after our baby gets vaccinated.

No, we did not circumcise our baby. No, you may not borrow our baby's penis.
Really though, I get what you are trying to do. I have experience with both, and you can send me a private message if you want to ask more specific questions. Just give me one-star ratings on my stories

Uncircumcised in a medieval era should fit perfectly, it's a small detail but it is what it is.

Spoiler: Kink warning

There's also this kink that makes their partner clean those unwanted parts, yeah, I've seen it in doujin okay!

I mean, it was performed in ancient times, but it was mainly for Muslims and Jews. If we're talking about the medieval era in Europe, I don't think many people were circumcised there until modern times:

This is also what I thought made the most sense but they're so unattractive! My male lead is supposed to be this hunk of a guy, and I'd like to imagine him having a beautiful penis as well as the ability to go at it multiple times. Isn't having a foreskin going to make it unsanitary?

Spoiler: Cause

(stuff would accumulate in there over time...?)

IDK if that even makes sense?

Spoiler: IDK what I'm saying

Like, assume he releases after doing the first girl; will the second girl really be okay sucking it while knowing stuff is gathered in there? Cause I know I wouldn't LOL

I might have some really awkward questions for you.

Eh um, you don't normally deal with it when it's soft and the dick is covered. You deal with it when it's hard, and therefore the dick is completely outside. When you circumcise, the cock head is visible at all times.

When an uncircumcised cock is completely hard, the cock head is completely visible. Just like a circumcised dick. The only difference is, when not hard, an uncircumcised cock head is hidden, while the circumcised cock head is visible at all times. So a foreskin is no more unsanitary than without it. You can clean it easily, it pulls back.

If you're a child, you'd normally have phimosis where the cock head can't poke through when hard, as the foreskin has not grown enough to stretch around the cock head. So if you're from a muslim background, this is probably why you'd assume that foreskin is unsanitary. This very rarely happens for adults and when it does, it's a medical condition.

Ask experienced ppl like rakitan or use resources like this https://www.healthline.com/health/mens-health/circumcised-vs-uncircumcised

*furiously takes notes*
Okay so when it gets hard it comes out, I already get that, but the foreskin is still there right? Just pulled back. So I was thinking that it would stretch back and forth when... you know... you stroke it? That's why I thought it would be more unsanitary.

> You can clean it easily, it pulls back.

Spoiler: clean?

Do you need to clean it after each release? Picture a single continuous session with multiple women. Does it need to be cleaned before having fun with the next woman?

 

[Zirrboy]

Fucking perverts...

I'm right at home

Unless the dick is extremely small and the foreskin is extremely long (which is probably a medical condition), it doesn't really stretch back and forth. It's actually very much like circumcised when hard, really. Most men you see in porn are circumcised so it's hard to show. Apparently women in America prefers the look of circumcised cocks. But yes, the foreskin is still there.

Not exactly clean it after every use. But if you want to, there's blowjob. Maybe that counts as 'cleaning'? Being bisexual, the taste of cunt juice on cocks doesn't bother Ai-chan at all. Plus some girls like the taste of dick cheese.

Golly, I didn't think my TA boyfriend had a "medical condition." His foreskin was extremely long, his penis was also huge, and he didn't like having the head of his cock exposed at all.

I've seen quite a few circumcised penises, but I haven't seen one where the dick is completely outside the foreskin when hard. In most cases, the head of the cock is only partially exposed.

I mean, your experiences may be different based on the cocks you've encountered.

Uncut man here way late into this fray. I agree mostly with K5Rakitan. Different men who are uncut have different experiences and preferences.

I have been fully hard and came without retracting my foreskin. I have also been fully hard and came with it retracted exposing my whole head.

Also, I have been soft at the start of foreplay with foreskin on, then it has retracted because my partner may have played with me. So, you can see the penis in multiple stages…which I would think lends to a more interesting narrative when writing.

Stretchy issue. Some of us have stretchy foreskin and some have more restrictive ones. Like K5Rakitan said, she’s been with dudes who do not like that.

I also have had partners lick me clean before having another go, so that’s not off the table. I’ve also had women not bother to clean it off. Think in an orgy situation that’s a personal preference.

As far as cleanliness issue….sure having stuff there happens, but that could again lead to a more interesting narrative.

Bloody hell, the threads I end up reading.

Historically accurate: Go for uncut.

Fantasy: Go nuts.

As for flaccid: Well, both look equally horrible and attractive. Different strokes for different folks.

As for erect: A normal uncut penis (proportional) will be quite similar to an erect one. The skin is pulled back and, if not, adds a bit more thickness to the shaft.

Unsanitary: The foreskin actually serves to protect the penis and keep it clean from external elements. As for what happens underneath it, yes, it requires cleaning. It is low maintenance and generally comes down to a splash of water once or twice a day. Same as with an uncut penis.

Beyond that, ‘go at it multiple times’… at that point the whole room reeks of sweat, sex and the male lead is covered in all sorts of fluids. I don’t think you need to worry about the foreskin, but rather how you are going to get those stains out of the mattress.



My questions: Does it have to be mentioned? You could just skip it? Focus on the exposed tip, the glands, etc. You don’t have to mention the foreskin. Let people fill in the blanks?

I don't know what to say but do what your heart is telling you

 

[2021]

Just do half & half

 

[SakeVision]

you can depict them as lacking foreskin, if you want the entire world outside US and Arabian nights to laugh at you

 

[TheDylanDrakes]

I would say that this is a totally crazy topic to stress over... had I not kinda done it myself for my own sex scenes. My book is vaguely Ancient Greek, so uncut is obviously the go, but I did have a moment of 'Fuck... Americans hate foreskin, don't they.'

Ultimately, I don't think you need to mention it at all. 'She took his cock into her warm mouth, causing an animal groan to rumble from his lips'. Once you start going into that that kind of erotic language, people will fill in the blanks themselves -- and that is probably a good thing. Let people add their own 'finishing touches' to your writing, if you will.

I feel bad for the boys and girls who have been with guys with terrible hygiene.
People, wash your penises. Having foreskin doesn't make you unsanitary, unless you're one of those people who won't even wash their butts because "hygiene is gay".
If your foreskin prevents you from washing properly, you have a medical problem that should be treated.
