Is it true having a foreskin makes the guy more sensitive than being cut?

Why are you asking this question? in some instances YES, the skin does make it more sensitive cuz A) the GLANS AKA Penis head is always covered, so when in contact with something it sure is sensitive. B) there is a frenulum which in itself I would say is 90% of all feeling cuz that spot there is whats getting rubbed against when your having sex. well I deem it as the main contact area. cut makes might have some of it left thus being sensitive as well. Some peeps that are uncut and phimosed might experience more pain than pleasure. Some have the frenulum glued on to the penis head and has not de-attached itself making it impossible to retract. Again pain!.\n\nSo in all honesty it depends on the person there is no right or wrong answer except for the moron who was talking about the 50's and pancakes???. I think that person has alzheimers or something.

These days there are NO hygenic reasons for circumcision if you bathe at least once a day. There will therefore be no smell. Accusations otherwise are just born out of ignorance. If you consider most of European men, for instance, are uncircumcised, don't you think they would have moved to circumcision en masse long ago if circumcision was the most hygenic and correct thing to do?\n\nAlmost all other reasons for circumcision are now medically treatable and therefore, circumcision is unneccessary.\n\nFor women, an intact penis is DESIGNED to work better that a circumcised one because the foreskin allows for greater movement during sexual intercourse and less lubrication is required.\n\nIt is also better for the man because his glans is soft and sensitive - the glans on circumcised penises gets thick and hard over the years and decreases sensitivity and can even lead to erection problems.\n\nI am writing this as someone who IS circumcised and I am appalled that a fully functional part of me was trimmed off for no real reason and which has, subsequently, given me a less satisfactory sex life than my uncut counterparts.

No but it is the most sensitive part but most of the vagina is sensitive as well as the G spot which is very important if it is touched by the head of penis during intercourse

My friend got an circumcision Last year which he is in 10th grade at the time, he said it was the best thing, yes it will hurt more than if you would have gotten it when you were a baby but its not to bad he said, and its only like a problem if it gets infected and what not but if you take care of it you will be fine.

Both are as good.  Sex is 75% a mental thing and only 25% a physical thing.  \n\nAnd there is not much of a difference between the sensation and arousal one gets whether one is circumcised or not.\n\nSome recommend taping the foreskin back for a few days and treating your penis (including masturbation) as though one is circumcised to get a feel for how it would be to be cut.  Maybe you can try that out - but use common sense and don't do anything to hurt yourself.

don't do it!  there is noting wrong with what you describe.  many foreskins do not move back all that far.  if its tight there are things you can do and creams you can use to loosen it up that will be a lot less painful.  it is not a must for sex... actually a foreskin makes sex better. it is an option, a poor option.  the head will dry out become less sensitive and get hard from exposure.  the foreskin protects the head and keeps it moist.  there is no benefits to circ, it is a cosmetic surgery only.  any women that says its a must are  shallow uninformed women. the foreskin glides back and forth during sex making it more pleasurable for both people (i know this from experience and from friends who have experienced this as well).  i highly recommend against it.  you cannot change it back once you go through with it.  if the foreskin is too tight then see a doc about it if the doc recommends circ see a few more.  many American docs do not know how to treat any foreskin problems they just cut it off and know nothing about it.  so be sure you get good opinions not just ill informed ones.  good luck.\nedited to add: girls that know better don't like circ... it makes a guy less senstive and makes sex ruffer.  real women love intact men. also intact men do not smell... it is NOT dirt, unclean or smelly, again i know from experience... the worst smelling guys are the ones that don't bath regularly circed or not.

I am circumcised too, I don't seem to have too much trouble with the "leaking" but all the bouncing around in boxers makes me even more sore than briefs. I was cut 50 years ago and my activities leave me sore all the time and have resulted in loss of sensitivity in sex. The only thing my glans can feel is dry cloth and my wife's vagina is not made of dry cloth. I want to kill that doctor, but the bastard is all ready dead.

Is there some medical reasoning behind this? As for your part it shouldn't make much difference to you, however his situation will change. The foreskin covers the head of the penis to protect it and to stimulate it. In circumcised males the skin of the head of the penis become thicker to protect itself and of course the stimulation is gone becuase under the foreskin are tiny ridges that help to stimulate. I have no idea why it is a popular belief that it is "better" to be circumcised. He will find that his sexual actions with you will not be as gentle as he will need to be more "violent" to stimulate his now less sensitive penis. God made him that way for a reason but good luck whatever you choose.

you should talk to him more. Is he your first uncut bf?. \nit all varies as far as uncut men having more feelings than cut. Those that have a tight foreskin actually feel more pain than pleasure, Ive never heard of a cut guy complaining, Ive only heard a few uncut guys complain, cuz of tight foreskin or being too sensitive. Now if you can tollerate the sensitivity you should be just dandy, ABout him losing his errection I wouldnt worry about it, In porno's ive seen. The guy isnt always completely hard even a friend or two has had the same issue. Something could be distracting him to cause the loss of errection.

I don't think the uncircumcised guy thinks it is a problem, but I do.  The biggest concern is uncircumcised males are more sensitive, so you have to be extra gentle.

i have a foreskin and there is absolutely never any difficulty pissing. \n\nanyway, if there is, you can just roll it back a little and your glans will be uncovered like someone who has had their foreskin cut off. \n\ni've tried that and when i did it the pee went everywhere... there's more control with a foreskin.\n\nPS it's really great to see some honest answers from guys who have had their foreskins cut off. i am asking a question about this now, check out my profile in a sec.\n\nalso, it is a myth that there is a higher rate of infection among those with a foreskin. i have never had an infection in 23 years. research has highlighted the possibility that there is a secretion from the foreskin which helps protect against aids.\n\nwhy is there such a high rate of aids in the us and there is the highest rate of circumcision in the us?

TRUE...Interesting way to put it. \n\n\nIf it wasn't with your peculiar fascination with the uncircumcised - I'd say your pretty insightful ;-)

I don't know why there is such an (American) obsession with circumcision as a cure all for foreskin related problems.\n\nI personally have a condition which can be described as phimosis. As a child I got instructions from the school doctor how to stretch. My mom explained me what to do and made sure I did my 'excercises' on a regular basis. Nothing special. Just pulling back the skin as far as it would go on a regular basis and after showering when the skin is more flexible. \nNo panic, just a little inconvience that was solved over time. I ended up with a foreskin that did not totally cover the glans. I have never seen this as a problem. My few girlfriends and my wife have never commented on it. \nNow I am 42 I notice that my foreskin begins to tighten again. I did some searches on the Internet and found many foreskin restoration websites that led me to using the low impact o-ring method. Despitre te fact that this method is used in order to get a foreskin back after circumcision, it helps me to stretch the foreskin with succes. Slowly and comfortably and cheap. O-rings are small rubber rings that you buy in hardware shops for just a few dollars (assortment ;-) )\n\nMy son has the same condition. I remind him to pull back every so often, like my mom used to do.\nI am from the Netherlands where we don't panic so easily over these small hickups of nature. \nJust try it this way first. There are circumstances that circumcision is the only satisfying method in the end. Pain and infections can be a sign that an operation is justified. \n\nA sensitive glans is what circumsized men miss and is also given as one of the most rewarding experiences of 'restored' men. This is normal. Your glans has not the normal exposure that a male without phimosis has. Therefore it is more sensitive as it is hidden in it's moist protective environment. As soon as you are able to have your glans peeping out more often you will get used to the feeling and also the sensitivity will be less.\n\nRegards Barra\nI can be contacted to mail outside this list if you want or need extra information.

Circumcised penises grow to be less sensitive over the years which can effect sexual enjoyment. Almost no medical authority in the world advocates circumcision these days apart from when some drastic medical condition requires it.\n\nUncircumcised men experience the natural back and forth of their foreskin over the glans during intercourse (and masturbation) which is very  enjoyable. Their glans stays sensitive too.\n\nSo, yes, sex feels different for a man ... and a woman usually needs less lubrication with an uncut man.\n\nIf personal hygiene is good, there are no issues with either.

I greatly prefer intact. My circumcised first boyfriend almost always had to finish by hand because of the decreased sensitivity, and that made me feel like I was no good to him. My husband is whole, and the sex is much, much more satisfying in every possible way. I suppose if I were madly in love with a man who had been done by his parents when he was a baby, I would have to learn to put up with it, but I'm really glad my husband's parents had the good sense to leave him the way nature made him. I think if I were with a guy and he suddenly decided he was so into pain and bodily mutilation that he just had to have it done, it would be a relationship breaker, because I wouldn't want to be with anybody that freaky.\n\nThe "bad smell" stuff is BS - a man just has to wash regularly, and there is no smell!

hi....well circumcision if done in childhood , makes the glans almost least sensitive to superficial touch when we grow adult...But if done in adulthood then surely you will have hard time as the exposed area shall give you so much pain..\n\nAs far as orgasm is considered, I feel that it should not ideally make any difference if one is circumcised or not...However many people who are circumcisied claim to hold for longer than those who still have fore-skin attached...But I guess that its more of hyped and rumor only as there is no technical study to proove that......I hope that you shall agree with me that there is no meter to measure the orgasm....so its soooo  difficult to answer it exactly..\nBut its also true that I have come across many people who claim that after they got circumcised ,they can do better or longer...coz their tool get lesser sensitive.
