Does it affect your sex life?

No, prefer not circumcised, and wouldn't know (but don't intend on finding out). If it's not broken, why "fix" it?
I find it hilarious (and extremely irritating) that people who don't have a foreskin can arbitrarily claim it's cleaner or better. Yeah, for some people it's better I'm sure, but not THAT many people can tell you a definitive difference.
Seriously though, keeping the foreskin clean is one of the EASIEST things in the world. Easier than say, brushing your teeth or washing your back. And as for circumcision reducing STDs I'm sure the difference is insignicant at best and for crying out loud, WEAR A CONDOM. Issue solved.
And you know, circumcision is still surgery (though I think it shouldn't be categorized as such) and as with all surgeries, there are risks and complications. I sincerely feel bad for whoever was unfortunate enough to suffer through the complications as a baby as a result of a circumcision they had no control over.

It is surprising that there is still confusion over this issue. It is not cleaner to have a circumcision; it does not prevent STDs or HIV transmission.
The American Medical Association and the American Paediatric Association both agree that this operation is unnecessary and should not be performed routinely.
The number of circumcised children continues to reduce - it's now around 40-50% of newborns. Hopefully this trend will continue.
Sexually, removing the foreskin does two things: it promotes the growth of keretin on the glans (head of the penis) reducing sensitivity; it also removes a very sensitive area of skin which contains thousands of nerve endings. Circumcision in the male has the same effect as snipping off part of the clitoris in a woman - sensitivity is reduced.

How can someone who is not circumcised say he has better sex if he never experienced being circumcised and vice versa. I'm Circumcised and I enjoy sex so I guess it can't be too bad. I guess look into the health issue if a circumcision has medical benefits than I guess it would pay to have it.

I am circumcised and I do prefer being so because it just looks and feels so much better, and it definitely does not affect my sex life one bit.

Well I am not a man, but I have been with men who are circumcised and with a couple who are not and I'm telling you straight up that the men who are not circumcised are much better to me.

I'm circumcised, I would rather be circumcised, and I have no idea if it affects my sex life because I have been circumcised my whole life.

I was snipped before I can remember. My sex life rocks. I'm not sure I would like having the extra bit of flesh. You can develop shmegma, which is pretty nasty. I wouldn't want my lady friend to have to deal with that.
I also hear that unsnipped dudes are way more sensitive and more likely to spooge too early.

Yes, It is much cleaner.
A circumcised man is less likely to carry STDs as well as get infected by other infectious disease.

Circumcised and would not have it any other way! I don't want to look like a sausage.
