>>It is possible that tphe skin doesn't line up, a consequence of either the Gomco clamp or Plastibell tye of circ (as a rule). It may be the reason for your penis going off to the side but I have a question for you. Does the line, called the median raphe, begin to curve off to one side as it runs towards the glans ending up on the side of the penis? And if so, is that the side to which the penis curves? That would help me figure this out?

I'm not exactly sure what you are asking as I am not familiar with all these terms, but to try to make it more clear: whether or not it is "supposed" to be there, there is a line (albiet more faint near the glans - it goes from a physical line to more of a "color" line as it approaches the head) all the way down the underside. it begins at the underside of the glans (head) and runs (pretty much) directly down the underside (urethra) before it meets with the band where the foreskin was removed. the rest of the line, begining at the base of the penis, starts centered, but as it approaches the band where the foreskin was removed, it follows up (my) left side. so, my penis rotates around to my left.
