When I was 19 I had an 18 year old boyfriend. We were just starting to be sexually active and I noticed his penis really STINKED. We got in the shower one time and I was like washing it for him telling him “you have to pull the skin back and wash “here” too” BECAUSE HE WAS NOT CIRCUMCISED and he said he thought it might burn or hurt or something and I was confused like “no you’re suppose to pull the skin back and wash it” and y’all

He said he didn’t know that because no one ever told him he was suppose to pull the skin back and wash his penis and that this (me doing it because we were in the shower) was the first time!!

He lived with his mom and I was like so mad & surprised she’d never told him this. He was 18. It was really sad honestly. But please teach your children how to care for their uncircumcised areas!
