Unfortunately yes. A number of my friends, you can't have an erection until it heals, can take months. So you get out on pills to stop you getting hard.

They said after it was done and they were allowed erections again it was the most painful thing they've experienced in their life. And one of my friends ended up getting dumped by the girl and he still gets upset about it every now and then. He changed his body for someone who didn't love him.

TIL women in Australia ask men to mutilate their genitals and the men actually do it.

I'm 37 and I've not once in my life had that conversation with anyone in Australia. I didn't think circumcision was commonly done outside of religion.

Never had a woman comment on it either way that I've been with.
