brief survey on circumcision, please answer?

Question

Have you had both circumcised and uncircumcised partners?

Which do you prefer?

Why?

How did intercourse feel different?

would/did u circumcise your boys?

Answer 1

I am a man. I am circumcised. Questions 1 - 4 do not apply to me.

Question # 5:

I have two sons (and 3 daughters). The boys were not circumcised.

Reason: I felt that in today's society, and especially in American society, that cleanliness is such an important issue (as is sex), that the boys would have no problem keeping up with it. So, for me, it was an outdated concept and probably something painful that I did not want the boys, as babies, to have to endure.

Answer 2

It is supposed to be more pleasurable with an un circumsized man. But I did not notice a difference. I have two boys and I never circumsized them. I have talked to doctors and most say it is not nessesary and that it is more for religous purposes. The extra skin actually protects from diseases. But since some people are lazy and don't know how to clean themselves right they think it is easier to have that removed. I have also heard that it desensitizes that area after they get it done. There is steal feeling its just not as sensitive. Also my brother had it done and he has had get recut 3 times because mother nature wanted it to grow back. But it grew back messed up so it had to be done over. He still has problems with it. I think its torcher. They were given that for a reason. Would you cut off your nipples if everyone else was doing it?

Answer 3

Yes, I have had both types of partners. I prefer the feel with an uncircumsized man better. I cant explain what exactly felt better about it, it just was more comfortable and stimulating. I would choose not to circ. my sons (I only have a daughter at this point). However, I probably will because my husband feels very strongly about wanting his sons to be circ. Personally, I could do without it. I think it is unnecessary.

Answer 4

Reasons to circumcize:

Religious belief.

A medical problem comes up at some point requiring it.

Foreskin is "redundant," meaning too much, so that hygiene cannot be performed.

End of Reasons.

I should add that there is good evidence that circumcized men are more highly resistant to HIV infection, because the cells of the foreskin are extra vulnerable to the virus. The evidence for resistance to other diseases is very sketchy.

Answer 5

Uncircumsized men seem to get harder. Might just be the guys I was with but i'm very sure I prefer circumsized men. My husband and both sons are circumsized BUT this can be a very heated topic, alot of people are VERY against circumcision.

Answer 6

I am a man, but many women have told me that a circumcised penis is the best. for cleanliness, and attractiveness. not to mention the oral sex factor. I have never heard that one "feels" better than the other. I have had my little one circumcised . it just looks better.

Answer 7

As far as intercourse, there is no difference for women. Some men say it feels better with the foreskin, but how would they know, when they've never had sex without it? If you are one who participates in oral sex, I think most women prefer the banana without the peel! And yes, I had both my sons circumsised for that reason.

Answer 8

i would sure prefer circumcised partner, cos its clean

as a future doc i would advise all men to get circumcision done, they are less prone to infections than the uncircumcised men, splly cancer penis, and recurrent infections causes many men to stop frm sexual activity, calculated as days lost per year.

Answer 9

yes i did circumsize myboys acording to the bible its un clean but more reasons are that it would keep your son from exsperincing possibly bad infections later on in thier life even more so keep him from having any bad sergerys possibly.to me thats the best option for them.and on the other hand it dosent make a difference it feels the same ive had both .

Answer 10

They prefer circumcised, because they are freaks of nature!

The “medical” reasons for circumcision are for Doctors to make MONEY!!!
Circumcision is “nothing” compared to other much more terrible things that people do for MONEY, when MONEY is involved EVERYRHING is possible, MONEY is the priority not moral values, not ethics, not health, not wrong or right, not even human life, etc. People are selfish by nature. And that is soooo sad. $$$CASH$$$

MOTHERS, the feelings of mothers who observed the circumcision of their babies. Go here if you have the courage:

They do not remember the pain when they grow up, but I wonder what kind of neurological/emotional damage it does to inflict such severe pain to such a young one!

In the US circumcision started to stop boys from masturbating; they will take much longer to reach the orgasm, and the orgasm will not be as intense, but that will not stop them.
Nowadays the “medical” reasons to circumcision are for Doctors to make MONEY!!!

RELIGION--If God intended boys to not have "skin" He would have made them so.
http://www.nocirc.org/religion/

HYGIENE--Use a new invention, soap and water!!! Women produce much more “smegma”, all kinds of discharges, wetness, and smells; because of physiologic and anatomical reasons, and how would you feel if they cut your vulva lips??? Women, why don’t you answer my question, are you afraid? Baby girls are more likely to get urinary tract infections and no one suggests we surgically alter them at birth to reduce the risks! Just one of many double standards and laws that always treat men worse.

MEDICAL REASONS--No medical reasons. A extremely small chance of a complication do not justify the removal of the foreskin, if so, why don't we remove the tonsils and the appendix when a child is born, and the chance of complications of the tonsils and the appendix is much greater. And for infections of all the organs, including female organs, use a new invention called antibiotics. Talking about complications, in fact many baby boys die each year from circumcision and related complications.
EVEN if “TRUE phimosis” occurs, instead of chopping it off like barbarians!, use Conservative Treatments like:
-Topical Medication(non-traumatic and non-destructive)
-Dilation and Stretching(non-traumatic and non-destructive)
-Combination treatment(non-traumatic and non-destructive)
-Preputioplasty is the medical term for plastic surgery of the prepuce or foreskin(many methods).
If you want more detail on Conservative Treatments, go here:
http://www.cirp.org/library/treatment/phimosis/
http://www.circinfo.org/alternatives.html
The foreskin can still be tight even after puberty, and it is natural, not TRUE phimosis.
And now they invented a new reason to make money, the risk of STD in uncircumcised men. Well actually uncircumcised men have more protection, but in practical terms that protection means nothing, because circumcised or not, if you have sex without protection and your partner have an STD you will be infected FOR SURE! That means, it is just one more stupid and desperate reason in order to make money with circumcisions.

SEX--Foreskin actually enhances the sexual experience for men because it constantly moves over the head of the penis causing more friction and pleasure. Men will also lose much sensitivity to the glans if circumcised.
Circumcised men will have to deal with discomfort and dry glans. Uncircumcised men, pull the foreskin back for a day, and see how it feels against your underwear all day, and see what happens.
The foreskin have those functions: protective, erogenous, sensory, and sexual physiologic. After all, why would you want to lose all of those “Meissner corpuscles”, the same nerve complexes which provide fine touch to the fingertips?
It is there for many reasons, that is how a man should be(it is natural).
If women like it better circumcised because it looks better(strange, not natural) or gives them more sexual pleasure(strange, not natural), then too bad, they do not have the right! All men do not like mutilated vulvas, and all men like breasts with nipples, they do not like mutilated breasts, etc, etc, etc, because that is the way those organs are supposed to be, it is natural. Interesting, isn’t?!!!

If that was a common practice to do that to baby girls, all the women would be in a BIG UPROAR about it(and men too!, men are not like women), but it’s ok to mutilate little boys. The great majority of the ones that agree with circumcision are women for their stupid selfish reasons. Even court cases reported in which mother and father fight because the mother wants to mutilate the son, it is always the mother!. You women should be ashamed to that to your son. Men that are not circumcised, will not get circumcised when adults, they would scream, kick, fight and run, if someone tries to mutilate their privates area, just like you women would run too if someone tried to do that to your labia. Men that where circumcised do not realize what they lost because never had one, and most of them that do realize try to justify it so they do not feel bad about it. Many circumcised men feel very bad emotionally because of what was done to them to such a private area.
It is mutilation of defenceless children in the most private spot, genital mutilation.
It is cruel and barbaric.
It is a human rights violation.
It is not the parent’s decision; it is the parent’s decision if they want to abuse him, rape him, or to kill him? It is the parent’s decision to choose the son religion? How can he chose a religion or his believes, if he is just a baby?
I do not even agree that it is ok if an adult man wants to get circumcised. I think it is wrong, because if a man wants to lose a finger, the Doctor can not do that to him. Think about it, think, think. And by the way, adult men that decide to get circumcised, do it because they know most women like it, they just do it to be more accepted by women.
I think it is just like slavery and all other barbaric acts of the past, it was accepted because it was common practice or tradition, everyone accepted slavery without questioning the facts, but it is not accepted anymore in a modern and fair and civilized society. Circumcision must not be allowed, BY LAW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
