There are a few groups of men who find circumcision their prefered sexual fetish. That is, they "get off on" the idea of circumcision. (The Merriam Webster Collegiate Dictionary defines fetish as "an object or bodily part whose real or fantasied presence is psychologically necessary for sexual gratification and that is an object of fixation to the extent that it may interfere with complete sexual expression". It also gives a synonym of "fixation", which it defines as "a persistent concentration of libidinal energies upon objects characteristic of psychosexual stages of development preceding the genital stage" and "an obsessive or unhealthy preoccupation or attachment".) One group is called The ACORN Society,so named because "glans" is Latin for "acorn". (This is in reference to the naked, circumcised glans.)

ACORN "is a foreskins anonymous club made up of men circumcised as adults, men interested in being circumcised, men who enjoy and wish to share their circumcision fantasies, erotic circumcision scenes, etc." (Foreskin Quarterly #10) The first eleven issues of FQ (Foreskin Quarterly) each included a column about this organization. From various issues: "ACORN is looking for a few good men who need to be SIRcumcised and we are looking for some good SIRcumcisers." / " Before we cut off your foreskin, I want you to use it one last time while I watch." / "Take it off!..Take it all off! ... Acorn wants you skinned." / "I am heavy into circumcision fantasy, and I have to think of circumcision to get off." / "Hey, skinhead, if you are man enough, the Sarge and his knife are gonna take care of you." From a classified ad in Issue #11: "Acorn Group Forming in Tampa. See the sights of Fla. and return with the cleancut look. Accommodations, travel plans arranged. Licensed surgeon. Several plans to choose from." c/o Bud Berkeley/ Acorn, POB 26011, San Francisco, CA 94126. [No longer active.]

Another is called CIRCLIST. I will be collecting details, but mainly, they like to read pornographic material based around someone getting circumcised-- adult or infant-- and have been known to watch videos of infant and adult circumcisions and masturbate to them, or to circumcise new members and sometimes masturbate as a group over the soon-to-be bleeding member. (Pun not quite intended.) See a photo below of a man being circumcised with a Tara Clamp.

Cut! Short story by David Fox. Bunkhouse Magazine (The International Magazine of the Western-Leather Scene), Vol. 1, No. 7, pp. 31-35. "[H]e took the foreskin between his fingers and pulled brutally ... he ... pressed the knife ... against the base of the foreskin ... three more clean movements completed the job; Barker no longer had a foreskin ... the men around him started, quickly, to jerk off." --Cutting Club, PO Box 100405, 46524 Dinslaken, Germany.

"I would like to circumcise an adult. I have a fantasy to circumcise a guy who lost his foreskin in a bet ... or to forcefully circumcise a man. Any way to get the Tara Klamps in the States? Any uncut willing to let me circumcise him? I would one day like to have a jar full of foreskins I circumcised off guys." --Message on alt.circumcision, 1/97

While most will agree "it takes all kinds to make a world", this boarders on pedophilia, especially when videos of infants and children are involved. One wonders if some of those who do circumcisions-- or at least those who seem so "obsessed" with doing them and with keeping them going-- don't fall into this category. However, there was a story in the BBC News in November, 2003 about a man facing child pornography charges for having more than 400,000 images on his computer, including some of children being circumcised.

"What turned me off the whole circumcision scene was to read a report recently about a bunch of men nursing erections as they watched a shrieking baby having his foreskin cut away. When I contemplate the perfection and symmetry of my little boy's body, including his penis, I feel a sense of pride at having produced such a beauty, and I shudder that there are perverts, like I describe, who would actually take pleasure in marring his perfection." --From a letter from Ms. A. C. Herts The Acorn [Society Newsletter], Issue No. 1 1992, page 10

"I might just go along to see if I can pick up some videos of boys and girls getting snipped. I only live up the road so I might get some good wanking material. Circs make me HARD! Snip, snip."-- The Cutter
Message on alt.circumcision, 4/98, in response to a post giving information about the Fifth International Symposium on Sexual Mutilations

Although Circlist says in their site that its "not intended as pornographic", their pictures and stories tell otherwise. I've seen some of their member's comments and they are shocking. Obviously, its a judgement call on the individual's part as to whether something is pornographic or "educational". I leave that distinction up to you.

Below are a couple of conversations from a medical fetish site:

"I've been waiting for a forum like this for a long time."

"I'm circumcised, and I fantasise about being circumcised by a sexy female doctor ALL the time. Held down by female nurses, and having my legs held, with their long nails digging into my skin. And when the female doctor starts to cut in, they all start getting wet, and start to have orgasms, laughing and giggling with big smiling faces, and with glee in their eyes."

"I can't wait to hear some (true) stories at this forum."

I would be strapped down naked, they would get my penis thoroughly erect and one would use a scalpel to cut into my foreskin under my glans. When she pulls off my bloody foreskin,they examine my naked mushroom glans. "Why stop there when we can cut even more away" says one. The cutter grips the base of my hard cock and with the scalpel starts to cut into the groove under my glans, slicing all the way around, and without warning, she grips the shaft skin and forces it down to the base, stripping my penis of my entire skin, they examine the swelling glans and the red shaft. "There, that should stop him from getting all cheesey under that disgusting bit of skin he had". They leave me with my cock shaft all bloody and exposed while they walk away laughing, saying how they have mutilated my precious cock. Comments please. Thank you. Paul. ld"

"I'd like to change stories/fantasies with people (male and female), who find a adult male circumcision as an erotic event and who have fantasies and/or experiences about circumcision. I find an adult male circumcision including a pregoing examination of the penis and foreskin, discussion on it, diagnosis and the operation itself sexually very arousing and I think that the origin and original motives of circumcision include much of sexual and homoerotic elements. I'd be pleased in changing stories/fantasies/experiences etc." --Message on alt.circumcision, 7/26/98

Letter to the Editor, Foreskin Quarterly #18, p. 30: "Dear Sir, Worked with a young Portuguese man at an auto body shop ... He had a ... very long, thick foreskin tapering to a point. It was snug, but retractable ... He was fired due to taking dope. Eight months later, met him, went to a hotel. He stripped down and ... What a disappointment! He'd been cut! I asked him about it. He said while in New York he met an older man who offered him a large amount of money if he'd be circumcised. (How much, he didn't say.) But he wanted the cash for dope. Two weeks later at a Central Park West apartment, he stripped and danced as eight men and a woman watched. He was told to stand and jack off. He was then bound with his hands behind a large chair, legs spread and bound to the chair legs. Was given some Novocain, and a large clamp was applied. He said it was humiliating and degrading, watching the people get their rocks off as he gritted his teeth in pain and embarrassment as he was being raped of his foreskin ... States he still sees their faces, and is depressed over prostituting his manhood. No Name Given, NY"
