Circumcision In Finland


I live in Finland, Europe, where circumcision is a rarity. No more than one percent of guys get clipped here, most of them for medical reasons. In the gay community and also in Helsinki (the capital) where I live now, the percent may be a bit higher, but the fact remains that a circumcised male is a curiosity in Finland.

So why did I get interested in all this? When I was fifteen, I used to hang out with a guy that soon became my best friend. He was really well hung and that is the other reason why I fell in love with him. Unfortunately, the feeling was not mutual, he was straight as hell. After loving him secretly for a half year, I finally told him about my feelings and identity. He didn't care about my gayness, as long as I didn't bring the subject up. Somehow I managed to cool my feelings down towards him, knowing that there would be no response.

Anyway, next summer (he was 16 by then) we both attended a congregation youth camp. The summer was hot, the lake water was warm, and we used to go swimming and sauna-bathing every day. It was in that sauna dressing room where I saw that something had happened to this well-endowed friend of mine. He had been circumcised!

It was my first encounter with a circumcised member. The operation had been done only a few weeks ago, probably in the beginning of the school summer break. The glans was so totally and beautifully exposed. It still had it's thin, tender, purplish skin that was soon to be thickened. The circumcision scar was fresh and dark, almost black, and very visible. And the whole beauty was hanging in the end of that long shaft that I had so often dreamed about. It was the sexiest and most exciting moment of my life!

At the age of 23, I went to see a student health doctor, who was convinced about my "phimosis" (which I didn't have, quite the opposite, in fact :) that he sent me to a hospital to get things fixed. Unfortunately, the surgeon didn't remove more than what was medically necessary, so I still have half of my foreskin left. That is why I am considering a recirc - and this time I want it done properly: no loose skin allowed!


Hello I am a man from the Aland islands a island between Finland and Sweden but we belong to Finland. I had my circumcision done for 2 years ago at a age of 42 years. I had been thinking about it for some years at that moment. It is not usual that men are circumcised here in the North. It will only be done for medical reasons. But I wanted that because I think its looks much better without the foreskin , and I have never regretted it. The only thing is that the circumcision was quite loos done so I am thinking about to have it redone , and then I want it tight done , with no loose foreskin at all. The circumcision was made at the local hospital , I said that I have had some problems with tight foreskin and some irritating skinbreaks , and there was no problem to get the circumcision done. I went to the hospital in the morning and went home on afternoon. The operation was made by self-solving sutures and after a week some has disappeared but some was still left so I cut them away by myself , the healing went much faster when the sutures were gone. I can only say that my cut penis looks much better now after the circumcision then it did with the foreskin , it feels so right for me so I can highly recommend it for all guys who are considering about it. Above all the hygienic is much easier to keep and there are no smegma anymore.
