Like many of you I have castration fantasies. I have discussed this fantasy with other gay men and it is not universal within the gay culture. However, the common fascination in that culture with bondage, cock and ball torture, and even cock rings in sex shops suggests that there is something going on in lots of gay mens minds regarding constriction, restriction, and even removal of genitalia.

There was a movie within the last couple of years called Quid Pro Quo where the characters desired to be paraplegics, paralyzed from the waist down, and live out their lives in wheelchairs. The movie was released by Sundance and starred Nick Stahl and Vera Farmiga (of Up in the Air fame), so it wasnt a cult picture at all. There was a club that these people belonged to where they met in a basement, all in wheelchairs, and discussed various aspects of their 'obsession' and their 'regular' lives. After the meetings were over they would fold up their wheelchairs and walk away. Several of them talked about achieving true paralyzation somehow, perhaps surgically, and some of them actually did achieve their dream and were able to stay in their wheelchairs permanently.

Dr. Oliver Sacs could probably help us all understand these things. The question is: Is there, or should there be, a cure for these 'aberrations'? Homosexuality could be called an aberration as well. Should there be a cure for that? I'm not sure where the castration urge fits into this scheme, but it does seem to me that people desiring to be paralyzed would be better off if there were a cure for that particular 'obsession'.

Ummm.... Try to get fixed first. Castration is the last way out. (Do as I say not as I did). I am happy that I did it, but it is not for everyone. If there is any doubt in your mind then please seek therapy.

Well, I have always thougt of it as an obssessive/compulsive disorder and I am not sure that there is a cure. I have had the urge to castrate myself 20 years or more and it is certainly not a logical process, Over that time have so completely abused my balls that they are now essentially non functional and a small fraction of their original size. They have lost most feeling and no longer produce testosterone.

I don't have any regrets though although I admit that it is wierd. In some ways I see it as an accomplishment. I still do some abusive things to them and one day may get them taken off all together.

All I can say in the way of advice is that if the thought of eventually being balless disturbs you, stop playing at it right now because, if you don't you will likely end up on a path with no turning off until you are without them because the further you move down that path the stronger the urge will become.

At least that has been my experience. As I said though earlier "No regrets"

I agree with what Francis said, it is a very slippery slope. If you start messing around down there you will castrate yourself at some point, and hopefully you will choose a safe way. Please at least seek counseling first, then if you want to continue see a Urologist (or as many as it takes) that will prescribe you a chemical castrant as a trial. good luck and be safe!

Before drawing conclusions, I would suggest you do some reading on Body Integrity Identity Disorder. It is a prominent issue on these boards, though not often identified as such, and when it is referred to it is simply BIID. Please learn much before casting your conclusions about.
