I had an unusually snug foreskin that would stay retracted if I wanted it to. When I was in my early twenties, I retracted it and left it for good. The only reason was for aesthetics. All of my friends were circumcised and I wanted to fit in. That being said, I have lived both as cut and uncut. I would never circumcise my son! I love having a foreskin and I love the way it feels. The head stays more protected and is much more sensitive. Sex is great and masturbation is wonderful. Cut guys can only jerk on the shaft without lubrication, but uncut men can stroke over the head with the extra skin provided. My wife has no problem with it. I would choose now to keept he foreskin over the head of my penis all the time, but with time, either my foreskin shrunk in size or it just became accustomed to its current retracted position. Keep clean and stay intact!!!

Studies show that 65% of males cut in adulthood had delayed ejaculation. Being circumstised as a child, prevents you from getting cancer of the penis, chances of getting HIV are reduced by 60%, you are less likely to get herpes. 80% of males in the U.S have been circumstised and a fifth of all men worldwide. Muslims as well as Jewish people must be circumstised. As the penis head is more exposed, it is more sensitive. Many report enhanced sexual pleasure as a result by studies done on men before and after the op.

Jonnybk ... you got me on my mother's comment. While she was only referring to me during our discussion, I do know her well enough that in any case that merited the procedure, her personal views and beliefs would not cloud her judgment. She was a very good doctor who always did what she felt was best for her patient. She delivered most of my friends and other kids I went to school with and I never heard any of them complain about anything my mom may or may not have done for them medically. I also mostly agree with you about Jewish women who avoid uncut men for religious reasons. Yet, I dated two Jewish girls when I was a teen and I had sex with both and neither ever said anything. I don't know, maybe it was because we were all young and things of the heart, or just having the excitement of having sex, had more weight than religion at the time. Or hey, maybe they thought that I was such a great catch that .... yada, yada ....and then we went our separate ways.

Jewish women will not let a man near them if they are not circumsized.I had to be done when I was a child becase difficulty in urinating.For a Doctor to say it is bararic doesn't give me any faith in her judgement.

I have been with a few guys, both cut and uncut and I have noticed no difference in pleasure for either me, or him. I think if a man has good hygiene, there is no problem with cleanliness behind the foreskin. I understand that some people have medical reasons for circumcision, but otherwise I think there is no reason to put a baby through that much untreatable pain. If you would consider doing it as an adult, I would advise that there is no difference in the look of your penis when erect, the head always pokes out in a dramatic and flatterring fashion - how often will girls see you floppy? In closing, I have to mention, giving head is a lot more fun on and uncut guy - there is so much more to play with and get a reaction from!

I've always wondered how 'the experts' know if sex is more pleasurable for guys who are cut or not. What I am sure of is that sex is sex and probably great for either. As a guy who is uncut, I can tell you that having had sex with a lot of women, it, being uncut, has never once been questioned or even discussed. Even during my teen and young adult years. Sarky, I've never had a partner even hesitate about having sex because she had cleanliness concerns. I guess it's like anything; if you don't shower / bath, you're going to be dirty after awhile. Years ago I asked my mother, a doctor, why I hadn't been circumcised and she surprised me by saying, "because it's barbaric!"

maybe it depends on the man? i've heard quite a few different opnions on this.

sure, it's clean and sexy!!!

does it make sex better??
