Woman intactivist truly knows the difference between circumcised and intact

I'm new to this forum and thought I would introduce myself. I'm a 25 (almost 26) year old woman, and definitely consider myself an intactivist.

I used to be one of those girls that thought an intact penis was kinda strange, and that I would probably circumcise my sons because it had been done to basically every penis I had seen. I discovered the TLC Tugger website a little over a year ago when I was doing some research on phimosis. I am a very curious and open-minded person and decided to look around some more. I was shocked to find the real differences between an intact penis and a circumcised one!

I was in a relationship at the time, and had been having sexual issues for quite a while. My partner was of average size and was very caring, but something just never felt quite "right" about our sex life. In fact, sex had been a frustrating part of my life for some time, as it had always been a little bit painful and awkward for me. There were times when I liked it, but it was never quite what I envisioned it to be.

I remember reading all of what had to be said on this forum and was very sad because I knew my partner at the time would have nothing of it. I was fairly certain that part of our problems could have been stemming from his circumcised status, but I was very much in love with him, so I tried not to let it bother me.

We broke up (for unrelated reasons) several months later. I was pretty bummed, to say the least.
In the spring, I became interested in a fellow that I had met through a common interest. He was very sweet and fun, and decided to give it a go.

So, long story made short, we're getting intimate, and I reach down and feel something new and different ... and it hits me, he wasn't circumcised. The first time we had intercourse I wasn't able to notice much of a difference (the first time is always awkward lol), especially with a condom. But once I was confident that we weren't going to give each other any diseases, we tried it without.

I can't even begin to put into words the difference the foreskin made. I can't tell you how happy it makes me to see so many guys go through the foreskin restoration process for both themselves and their partners. We've since broken up, but I know now that I CAN have a fulfilling sex life! I will NEVER have this done to my children. This chap was lucky, his foreskin was too short for the docs to risk operating on it, but even with a shorter foreskin (his only went about halfway down the glans when flaccid), it was such an incredible difference! At the same time, however, I am filled with the deepest sadness that so many of our fellow Americans continue to be brainwashed. I know there are men and women suffering from this, and, for the first time in my life, I want to get out there and inform people about something I really care about!

So, I hope that this post not only gives you an introduction to who I am, but also shows you that there are people who VERY much appreciate all that you have been doing! I am SO grateful for the ability to look at these forums and see people doing such wonderful things!

Thanks,

~M
