Only men circumcised as adults can experience the difference a foreskin makes.
In the Journal of Sex Research, Money and Davison from the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine reported on five such men. Changes included diminished penile sensitivity and less penile gratification. The investigators concluded,
Erotosexually and cosmetically, the operation is, for the most part, contraindicated, and it should be evaluated in terms of possible pathological sequelae.( 1)
Other men circumcised as adults regret the change.
I play guitar and my fingers get callused from playing. That’s similar to what happened to my penis after circumcision.( 2)
After the circumcision there was a major change. It was like night and day. I lost most sensation. I would give anything to get the feeling back. I would give my house. [This man’s physician persuaded him to be circumcised by warning he could otherwise get penile cancer. When the man complained of the result, the physician replied, “That’s normal” and would not help him.]( 3)
Slowly the area lost its sensitivity, and as it did, I realized I had lost something rather vital. Stimuli that had previously aroused ecstasy had relatively little effect. . . . Circumcision destroys a very joyful aspect of the human experience for males and females.( 4)
The greatest disadvantage of circumcision is the awful loss of sensitivity when the foreskin is removed. . . . On a scale of 10, the intact penis experiences pleasure that is at least 11 or 12; the circumcised penis is lucky to get to 3.( 5)
The sexual differences between a circumcised and uncircumcised penis is . . . like wearing a condom or wearing a glove. . . . Sight without color would be a good analogy. . . . Only being able to see in black and white, for example, rather than seeing in full color would be like experiencing an orgasm with a foreskin and without. There are feelings you’ll just never have without a foreskin.( 6)
After thirty years in the natural state I allowed myself to be persuaded by a physician to have the foreskin removed—not because of any problems at the time, but because, in the physician’s view, there might be problems in the future. That was five years ago and I am sorry I had it done. . . . The sensitivity in the glans has been reduced by at least 50 percent. There it is, unprotected, constantly rubbing against the fabric of whatever I am wearing. In a sense, it has become callused. . . . I seem to have a relatively unresponsive stick where I once had a sexual organ.( 7)

Yes - I was circumcised as an adult at age 40, at my (then new) wifes suggestion, by choice and for no medical reason. It was one of the best things that has happened top me and my wife and we now enjoy all the benefits that male circumcision brings to both partners in a relationship. These include better hygiene, comfort, appearance to women, self-esteem and FAR FAR better sex for both partners. Circumcision allows the penis head to develop more fully and the rim becomes much more pronounced. This is felt by the woman during intercourse. My wife also appreciates the extra stimulation provided by the sliding action of the very tight shaft skin on my circumcised penis as it moves against her labial and clitoral areas. This enables her to reach orgasm more quickly during intercourse. From my point of view, sexual sensation is much improved as my penis head and groove are fully exposed as I move in both directions during intercourse and the tension of the shaft skin pulling against the underside of my penis head provides a wonderful feeling. For maximum benefit, the circumcison should be complete and tight, with ALL surplus skin removed, so that the groove is always clear at normal times and with the frenulum excised. I had a second circumcision 20 years after the first one in order to remove a little slackness which had developed due to stretching during erections and sex etc. This restored an ultra-tight result and we are both very happy with this. There have been no disadvatntages at all and my wife and I believe that the benefits are so great that all men should be circumcised! The anti- circumcision crowd simply do not know what they are talking about.

I knew a guy who had it done so he would look like the other guys and he says it's the worst mistake he ever made.
If you hear of adult's who had it done and say it feels better, it is usually for medical reasons, and make no mistake the forskin is allowed to have medical problems just like every part of the body, the penis is not immune. In this case of course it would feel better to them but circumcision is overly used in order to treat medical problems and more then likely it could have been dealth with in another way but the doctors in this country are ignorant when it comes to this, therefore if these men had of dealt with their issue using a method besides circumcision it would have felt better
There is no body part that has no feeling, why do you think the most errogoneous part of a man's body would be an exception, it's not.

Ms. Maple here: No, I don't know any men who were foolish enough to get cut as adults. But before I met my husband, I had a long-term relationship with a guy who had been mutilated as an infant. He was a great lover (hands, tongue, etc), but he almost never could climax from intercourse but would have to finish by masturbating. I guess I thought that was normal, as he was the only man I'd been with. After we broke up and I met my husband, I found out what sex with an uncut man is like, and, believe me, girl, it's sensational! Before I thought of intercourse as the least-interesting part of sex, but with an uncut man, it is just incredibly good. Since then other woman have told me that their cut partners have to finish by hand, so I guess it's common. What a shame that so many men of this generation were mutilated as babies! Those who are lucky enough to be whole should not even think about giving it up!

30 Years and not one day of regret , a sheath opening thats not large enough to roll over the penis head is somewhat frustrating , [Try putting 5 condoms on...You get the idea ?]
Sensitivity is great , the feelingof the vaginal wall and its associated muscles is beyond description. Now 30 years on , the de-sensitivity has increased , tho' I may add to the pleasure of my partner/s ,[Much greater Control] I Have never failed to enjoy or have an Orgasm unless Alchohol or Drugs have been involved...Its far Cleaner , Asthetically More interesting [So I'm Told]..." A Head Turner ! " Hahahah....I'm 55...Have fun !

Yes, and with very good results. Much happier now!
Sensitivity? BETTER now.
Any difference? Cleaner, healthier penis. Looks much better too!
Now some info on circumcision, please keep reading...
CIRCUMCISION IS VERY BENEFICIAL, its cleaner, healthier and several prestigious research institutions have proved that circumcised men have less risk of contracting STD's such as AIDS-HIV, syphilis or herpes.
Uncircumcised penises are difficult to keep clean, and more prone to infections and penile cancer, studies have shown.
A circumcised penis is naturally clean and virtually free from urinary infections. You will not have to worry again with careful washing of your penis.
Is it NOT true that the AAP (American Academy of Paediatrics) does not recommend circumcision. They simply say they leave the decision to parents. But recently, and specially after the recent studies by the US National Institutes of Health, the AAP has been discussing if it may be necessary to change their policy and recommend circumcision to all newborns as they used to do, so in the future we may see that the AAP advocates circumcision again.
Have a look at: http://www.baby-health.net/articles/381.html
About STD's:
As I said, several studies carried out by prestigious research bodies have proved that uncircumcised penises are more prone to infections and contraction of STD's, including AIDS-HIV. It has been confirmed that circumcised men are up to 70% less likely to be infected than those who are uncircumcised. Have a look at this site: http://www.torontodailynews.com/index.php/HealthNews/2006121404Circumcision
As for women, studies also show that circumcision also protects female partners from AIDS-HIV and other STD's. Browse this article: http://www.hopkinsmedicine.org/Press_releases/2006/02_08_06.html
About sensitivity of a circumcised penis:
NO medical or physiological study has ever shown that circumcision reduces sensitivity, opposed to common belief. It is completely FALSE that circumcision reduces penis sensitivity. The American Academy of Paediatrics (AAP) confirms this on their web site; have a look at: http://www.aap.org/pubed/zzzjzmemh4c.htm
Circumcision is an easy and nowadays *painless* procedure, which has many benefits, and virtually no risks.
Circumcision is NOT an amputation. Circumcision is NOT comparable at all to female circumcision, which is something completely different.
Circumcision rates are INCREASING nowadays, both in the United States and overseas. Many African, Asian and Latin American countries with little circumcision tradition are starting to promote the procedure to help to reduce the AIDS-HIV infection rates.
Finally, this site has a lot of useful and *unbiased* information. Make sure you have a good look: http://www.circinfo.net
