My husband recently began thinking about getting circumcised. Oddly enough i've never been with a circumcised man and didn't really know how to respond when he told me he was thinking about having it done? Is it really any different at all? Will lovemaking feel different? Has anyone been in a similar situation? Well any answers/advice would help really.

It doesn't feel any different really, since the foreskin gets pulled back during intercourse anyway, except that you can experience more vaginal dryness and tearing as a result. As for whether he should do it or not, I don't think it's really worth getting circumcised as an adult unless it is for a pre-existing medical condition. It's way more involved than for an infant for one thing, and there is always a risk of something going wrong like more blood loss or chance of infection, so why mess with it? Also, a lot of men experience reduced sensitivity, since you are removing 50% of the penile shaft skin & nerve endings, and a lot of men report dryness, etc. My friend's kind of pulled to one side because of his circumcision as a baby (didn't affect anything) but why take the chance?

I can't honestly say that it'll feel any different because I've never been with anyone who wasn't circumcised. But from what I've read about circumcision, it'll make it easier for him to be clean down there. It will also minimize sweating and odors. As far as sex goes, I really can't say. I hope you find the answers you're looking for.
Good Luck

Not exactly a comfortable subject for me but I can offer you some decent advice none the less.
Talk with your husband - Tell him about all your concerns and fears and work them out through comfortable and serious conversation.
Love conquers all - I think your fears are, personally, superficial to the relationship. Your concerns needn't be when you both, I'm sure, love eachother dearly and will ultimately rise above this silly situation. Well, that is I'm sure it's not serious to him; it will definitely be painful; but will certainly prove healthier and cleaner in the long run.
Yours,
Mike

Works the same both ways.... His pleasure might go down a bit, so I've heard, but yours should be fine. Also, why does he want this done, usually they don't do this type of thing unless they get a lot of infections, especially if they hadn't had it done in childhood. Heard it's painful for a man to have this done in later life.....

Sorry, never been with a man who wasn't circumcised. Where are you located? Here in the US, circumcision is a routine procedure they do on babies in the hospital.

I deleted my entire answer because this person here is also posting the same question under another name and has been posting it for 8 months now. Grow up, get a job and find something better to do.

I don't think it would feel any different but it would look better.
