Maintaining an outside blog

About a year ago and about a year after my bilateral orchiectomy I started a blog (many months before joining this forum). The reason for a personal blog was I had read so much on the internet about the surgery and after-effects and, quite frankly, 12 months after my castration I realized a great deal of what I had "learned" was total bullshit. Most of the BS came from comments of uniformed people whose "knowledge" was based on old and outdated notions, urban myths, ridiculous portrayals on TV and in movies, etc. etc. My goal was to be as up front, unabashed and as honest as possible about "eunuch life". My assumed readership would be middle aged men facing chemical or surgical castration for medical reasons such as prostate cancer. However, the blog's statistics indicated most readers were from the voluntary castration community.

Based on what has been assumed as interest in such a blog and given the amount of information and interchange here, I wonder if it's worth the time and effort to keep the personal blog going. It requires at least a few hours a week to update, shoot and prepare photos and videos and come up with new material of interest. Of course that is time I could be doing other things.

Some feedback here is requested. Is an outside blog interesting enough for me to continue - or is it simply redundant given the plethora of information here?

Since it appears that many of my readers came from here, it's time to sound off. Yea or nay. If yea, then I need to know what folks are interested in reading about or seeing in photos and videos.

Only feedback, questions and suggestions can drive the blog.

I tend to find myself in that type of exercise. There is a certain value to organizing your thoughts so you can communicate with others. My thought is the question you should ask is if it is worth it for you.

Good point, but the only value to me is if it has value to others.

Sean, your outside blog is a good resource. I note that it look like you removed your pictures recently, but I don't blame you, if you did that for privacy reasons.

I would be extremely interested in your blog. I'm considering chemical castration and the experience of someone like yourself would be invaluable as part of my research. Where would your blog be found?

Your blog is (was) extremely informative and very well-written. I think that it would have long-term value and I hope that you will be able to re-establish it and that it can be archived for permanent access. I know that a lot of work went into it and greatly appreciate the time and effort that you spent.

Well, the responses and PMs just today seem to justify resuming the blog. But I'll basically have to start from scratch as the previous postings,photos and videos were lost to a computer / internet glitch. Then to make it worse I had deleted most of the content on my computer for obvious privacy reasons.

So check over the next few weeks at

I agree. I've checked it out several times and found it very interesting, but I have not left a comment there.

Thanks for the replies guys. I have updated the blog with a video of interest to anyone who wants their scrotum removed as well as testicles and a long, perhaps boring, lecture on Bell Clapper Deformity and becoming a Eunuch.

Please remember, a little feedback helps me come up with additional content.
