Man Explains Why He Cut Off His Penis (NSFW)<\/b>
\nWARNING: The content and images in this story may be offensive to some readers.<\/em><\/p>\n

A man<\/a> who goes by the name of “Gelding” recently opened up about why he decided to cut his penis<\/a> and testicles off and become a “nullo.” That is, a man<\/a> who has removed his sex<\/a> organ. <\/p>\n

You can see a NSFW photo<\/strong> of Gelding at the bottom of this story.<\/p>\n

“The average person of both sexes will think I’m unbalanced,” Gelding told The Huffington Post in an email. “[That’s] their laymen’s knee-jerk<\/a> reaction.”<\/p>\n

Before he was able to get his penis<\/a> removed, Gelding said, he had to have several consultations with a doctor.<\/p>\n

“In my case, my psychologist took me through a number of long dialogue sessions and a full battery of personality tests to develop a formal profile,” Gelding said. “His finding was that I’d be better off in a ‘whole person’ view after having my penis<\/a> removed. That was sufficient to sway a urologist to agree to do the procedure. More harm would result in the long term from not doing the procedure than doing it.”<\/p>\n

In an interview with Gawker,<\/a> Gelding explains what people often misunderstand about “nullos” and what the advantages and drawbacks are of joining this club.<\/p>\n

On why he decided to have his testicles removed …<\/p>\n

I had a baby face in high school, there was one of these bullies and he said “you have a man<\/a>’s equipment but you’re still a boy<\/a>” and he squeezed my balls in the shower. He was on the football team, I was on the soccer team showering together and he said “you shouldn’t have such big equipment” so he squeezed my balls and at that point it was just a fantasy for me. So how about getting rid of them for some reason?<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

On the drawbacks …<\/p>\n

One of the most obvious cons is I have to sit to pee, or I have to use one of these female<\/a> urination devices. It’s an odd funnel shaped device that you can use if there’s only a men<\/a>’s urinal. Also, sometimes I get urinary tract infections. There’s a shorter path to the bladder through what I’ve got now. So I’ve got to be very careful and keep it clean.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

On the benefits …<\/p>\n

… my mood has improved dramatically since going nullo. I don’t miss the baggage. I don’t miss the fact that I get into sex<\/a> with a guy<\/a>, he expects me to perform in some ways, now he doesn’t have that expectation. In fact, quite a few guys<\/a> find it very arousing that they don’t have to have that distraction.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Read the entire interview here.<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

SF Weekly previously described<\/a> Gelding as a “legendary figure in the eunuch subculture, where he acts as a kind of den mother for the genitally obsessed, someone to whom a man<\/a> can turn when he decides the cojones need to go.” This was back in 2000, before Gelding had his penis<\/a> removed in 2011. <\/p>\n

As for why he did that, Gelding told Gawker it was ultimately sparked by a sports injury, but that he had thought about having it cut off before.<\/p>\n

“For whatever reason I was always embarrassed by the size of what I had. It didn’t fit my personality.”<\/p>\n

Gelding has also worked as a “cutter,” someone who castrates men<\/a> looking to part with their testicles.<\/p>\n

“One of the reasons why I am doing this is to help other guys<\/a> avoid the problems,” Gelding told SF Weekly. “In that respect it is humanitarian. In another respect I will admit to a certain amount of sexual excitement from the whole idea.”<\/p>\n

Others have opined on the positives of voluntary castration. In his book, “Castration: The Advantages and Disadvantages,” author Victor Cheney asserts<\/a> that the surgery can increase life expectancy by thirteen years and improve the immune system.<\/p>\n

Cheney, according to the book’s Amazon product description, is a retired U.S. Air Force Lieutenant Colonel who spent 25 years researching the surgery and had it done on himself after he contracted prostate cancer.<\/p>\n
