Here's my story: Got mine about age 35 after our delightful but unexpected third child... (Another story). Went in, never got offered the valium (doh!), got the local, and sat down and proceeded to make conversations with the staff to keep my mind off the SMOKE coming from the ol' scrot' (they cauterize stuff, you know). So my ol fella is on fire, which is a bit disconcerting, and my heart is beating like a jack rabbit, and the reeling sense of panic begins to take hold, especially since my grandfather died of a heart attack about the same age, and I'm figuring this is it, the heart is gonna explode. So the doctor is talking to his asst about some dude who just had a heart attack, and describing it in DETAIL and I finally had enough and asked them to change the subject. Must have sounded pretty paniced, cause they did, real quick. Kinda funny.

All the other stuff is true, the jockstrap, it's uncomfortable for a few weeks, I sure as hell didn't rock climb for a month or two, but it's fine now. So go for it.

Had mine several years ago and Tim from work left me a voice mail saying, "The boys and I are going out horseback riding. Want to come along?"

I have given the same voice mail invitation to everyone I know having the cut. Even got one guy's wife to pass along the message. Gets a laugh when you need it.

Man, I've been thinking about this for a while, but haven't had the *balls* to do it. Two reasons, the pain, and I don't want 'buyers regret' after the fact. Its not something you can easily undo. While I believe I'm in my relationship for life, you never know what life will deal you. I don't think I'm psychologically ready to make that next step.

On the plus side, my wife has decided to buy VARIOUS types of condoms to experiment with. Condoms suck, especially the cheap, thick ones, but I'm all for any experimentation in the bedroom.
