How did you first get interested in circumcision?

When I was pretty young I saw my cousin was circumcised and I was very interested because it looked so different from mine. I’d never seen the head of my penis at that stage. I had also seen my father’s of course, and his head was also sometimes visible, so I think I made the connection between having the head exposed and maturity. I also remember talking to a different (female) cousin once around the same time as I saw my cousin’s circumcised penis and she remarked how his looked different from most boys’, not having any skin around it. I remember we were outside and she stripped some of the bark off a stick to demonstrate. From then I always imagined circumcision as a sort of rite of passage for boys.
