No, I’m not talking about actually wearing an ugly turtleneck sweater, but rather the age old gross - out for girls, an uncircumcised penis.
I remember a couple of years ago, one of my friends was dating a guy that was not circumcised and the rest of us girls could not stop asking her questions about it … and were so surprised that she didn’t mind. Supposedly for her, it didn’t make a difference during hook ups.
Well, her boyfriend might have actually been onto something and experiencing even better sex than those who are circumcised. Two new studies have been done — one showing that there is no difference in sensation between uncircumcised or circumcised guys, and another one showing that men with everything “intact,” shall we say, had greater sensation because five of the most sensitive parts are the ones removed by circumcision.
Interesting right? That was definitely the opposite of what I always assumed to be true. For some reason, I always thought that the extra skin prevented the guy from getting as much feeling. So maybe I, as a judgmental and easily grossed-out girl, should bite my tongue when it comes to this topic. The guys with all their goods might have a few tricks up their sleeves (no pun intended) than we were previously unaware of.

…wow…
I am informed, yet slightly turned on by a chick talking about heads.
“I always thought that the extra skin prevented the guy from getting as much feeling.”
…I don’t think she understands penises.
yes, you SHOULD bite your tongue. guys are born with their penises that way for a reason.
a foreskin has over 20,000 nerve endings, cutting off that many nerve endings is NEVER a good idea unless there is a medical emergency.
a foreskin can move back and forth, and in no way “prevents” any kind of pleasure. it isn’t like you need to cut skin off to expose the head or anything..
if a guy wants to get circumcised on his own, thats his choice.
but i don’t think parents should feel obligated to make the decision for him, since its his body.
Pleasure is great and all, but preventing nasty diseases should be of more concern.
While the foreskin does contain many nerve endings, I don’t think there’s much need for guys to feel any better during sex - it’s hard enough to “last long enough” (guys aren’t actually designed to last more than a few minutes, but unfortunately girls are designed to need 15-20 minutes to come. Evolution is weird). A girl shouldn’t be able to feel the difference (using the inside of her vagina to “feel” for a difference).
More importantly, though, having forekin increases your risk of contracting every single shaft-based STD (that is, crabs is an example of a disease not affected by presence of foreskin). If everyone used a condom every time, it wouldn’t matter as much, but I think we all know that people aren’t quite that safe. It also makes the penis much more prone to bacterial infections, from having all sorts of stuff underneath it while relaxed (not contracted).
I think that reducing my risk of getting a nasty bacterial infection on my penis, contracting HIV, gonorrhea, syphilis, etc is worth the loss of some sensation. This reduction in risk has been shown to be around 50% in many studies. Incidence of UTIs in uncircumcised males has been shown to be as much as 9 times higher in newborns. Might even help me last longer, pleasing my partner further.
And ladies - having unprotected sex with an uncircumcised male substantially increases the risk of contracting HPV, which can cause cervical cancer. Studies have shown that uncircumcised males may be up to 300% as likely to have HPV, and also have a higher rate of transmission to females.
LOL @ more skin.
Anyways, one trick for the uncut is masturbation. No lube required if you use your foreskin!
There is also that beautifully disgusting turnoff known as smegma. It’s probably about the grossest thing I have ever encountered in my sexual wanderings, and made me never want to venture near a turtleneck ever again.
I for one love an uncut guy. I have haven’t run into a dirty one yet.
It is always a good idea to shower with a guy before getting down to business. Failing that, he should skin it and rinse it off in the sink. Then there’s no gross-out.
Outside of a long run committed relationship, a condom should be imperative, whether he’s cut or not.
European and Japanese guys are uncut, but if that has led to an STD explosion over there, I haven’t heard a word of it!
I think a foreskin is wonderful because it traps male lube in a wonderful and ingenious way. It also makes foreplay obvious. The foreskin reminds me of my inner lips. A limp uncut penis is the least threatening of all penises.
But what a write above also suggests that the foreskin should be off limits outside of a committed relationship. Some things are best enjoyed after marriage…
What kind of monster would want a guy to undergo the amputation of exquisitely pleasure-receptive body parts when it is ridiculously easy for him to taste yummier than she ever will?
Foreskin feels REALLY good.
BTW, the two studies you mentioned; the one that ACTUALLY MEASURED the whole penis is the one that found the foreskin is the best part. The other one involved a tiny sample of men, and only measured two spots - neither was on the foreskin.
I grew up Jewish and as a result my younger brothers were both circumcised. My first few hookups were also all circumcised. I had never seen an uncircumcised penis before outside of pictures so while studying abroad in Italy last semester I was kind of looking forward to trying it out especially since I heard it can be fun to play with. I also heard how it can be cruel and even some Jewsish parents are skipping it.
Wow…now I know why Jews circumcise. I was with two guys in italy, and its really pretty gross.
Now the issue is no longer debated to me. All of my future partners, and my sons if I have any will be circumcised. No hands down.
