Circumcision is good. Too bad it was delayed until you could obsess about this.

The only men that are qualified to answer the first part of your question are those who were circumcised after the age of 21.
I'm one of the majority of circumcised men who were circumcised at birth, and so I don't know what it's like to be uncircumcised. You, on the other hand, are the only one qualified to answer the second part of your question because only you know exactly what it means. What the hell is a "forign" skin?

There is really no good medical reason to be circumcised, other than the fact that it is easier for a male to keep himself clean down there -- especially if he were somehow incapacitated and could not bathe or shower by himself -- like in old age.
Some men like the look of a circumcised penis -- they want the glans (or head) of the penis to show. Other men are horrified at the prospect of losing their foreskin.
I think why circumcision is still popular among non-Jew and non-Muslims is that it is thought to be cleaner -- it's sort of a health belief from post-WW II that has found itself now a part of popular culture, especially in North America.

there is no value to circumcision, it used to be thought it was healthier but if a man has the brains to wash everything the foreskin is there for a purpose, to keep the glans protected and to keep it from rubbing on things so when its rubbed in sexual contact it will get stimulated more easily and also the ring of flesh at the base of the foreskin is a major part of a mans sexual pleasure, so if its cut off that sensation is lost, a woman should not notice any real difference in feel and if she can wash well then the man should be able to as well so infection is unlikely. if you arent circumcised then the foreskin is still there.

circumcision ties up a lot of medical resources that would be better used to cure cancer or heart disease or achieve results in eliminating other things that kill people. I have yet to hear of anyone dying from having a foreskin.
I have my foreskin and plan to keep it; it is clean and I am healthy and circumcision isn't going to make me better. Also, all my partners to date love to fiddle with it so why would I want to get rid of something that brings us so much enjoyment.

Circumcised or not is really a personal choice if not a religious thing. Afterall not circumcised is better when masturbating but need to ensure to clean your penis properly in shower as it is easier to built up scump and make your penis smelly if you dont.

I think it is better not to be circumcised. The foreskin is there to protect your penis and when it is removed it is easier to damage the penis. However being circumcised means it is easier to clean.

Depends who you ask.
There is no medical reason to be circumsized.
It is more of a vanity issue unless you are jewish.
My sone is not circumsized and he has never had any problems with infection etc etc. My boyfriend is also not circumsized.
I just look at it as more room to "grow".
Either way...doesnt make much difference.
When you become erect the foreskin moves back.

try the 'third way' - keep the skin rolled back behind the glans. No cutting, but all the benefits.

How many times does this have to be asked?
