does an uncircumsised penis feel more sensitive?

Answer 1

Yes, newly circumcised men report uncomfortable sensitivity when their unprotected glans rubs against their clothing, until the keratin layer thickens on the thin membrane covering the glans. Circumcision removes millions of nerve endings and 15 square inches of erogenous tissue in an adult. All that skin has a gliding action that slides on itself and acts like lube during masturbation and sex too. Some men report little loss of sensation after adult circumcision. But since many of them really want circumcision for psycho-sexual reasons, tied up with appearence rather than function and some actually have a fetish for the operation and its effects, it's hard to treat them as impartial. Also if the reason for circumcision was phimosis (usually avoidable with stretching and Betamethasone cream) they never had a functional intact penis to compare with. Plus they have grown up with their glans protected and have not had the years of exposure that men circumcised as babies experience. Many of those report loss of sensation in middle age. Some men circumcised as adults report the difference in sensation afterwards as like black and white after colour. It's a very difficult thing to measure in any scientific way. Early attempts at doing this said there was no measurable difference but they have been largely discredited. All men circumcised as adults report differences, particularly with masturbation,

Answer 2

No, it doesn't. I was circumcised at age 22, and so am in a position to be able to rationally compare the sensitivity of both a cut and uncut penis. I feel that I have lost none of the sensitivity I had prior to circumcision. If anything, I'd say my glans is even more sensitive now.
P.S. I certainly don't agree with everything GeoffB has written.

Answer 3

Generally yes. The foreskin covers the glans (penis head) in most guys and keeps it from getting rough, as it's not exposed to friction and the outside environment for long periods of time. The less friction it's protected from, the more sensitive it'll be to friction during sexual activity when the foreskin's not covering it. A good analogy is if you put a bandaid around your finger for a few days and don't take it off. When you finally do take it off, the area covered by the bandaid will feel more sensitive.

Also, the "inner foreskin" contains a lot of nerve endings. In any circumcision, the majority (if not all) of these nerves are cut away. More nerves = more sensation and stimulation. From a physiological point of view, it makes sense that the uncircumcised penis is more sensitive. Do note that the concept of sensitivity varies from person to person, so it's hard to judge most of the time.

Answer 4

yes, in some ways. cuz the glans is usually covered by the foreskin, so its got extra protection u can say. So its used to it, so when the foreskin is pulled back, the glans is more sensitive to touch.

Answer 5

well im uncircumsized and im 15 and i probbaly wont get circumsized, but what i do is i keep the foreskin back 24/7. it may seem weird but it helps, after like 2 days(seriosly 2 days) its normal, i dont get any tingles from nerves. i sugest u do it to, or try it

Answer 6

Probably, since the glans (head) is not normally exposed.

Answer 7

i think probably, im circumcised meself, but ive always wished i was uncut, but idk
