Usually nothing bad ever happens to a guy just because they're uncircumcised. Around 95% of uncircumcised men never develop any problems regarding their foreskins, and of the 5% that do the problems are very easily remedied.

In fact, for most guys having a foreskin would be a good thing. The foreskin contains many nerve endings that seem to contribute to sexual sensitivity (see link 1). Furthermore, several studies have indicated that the foreskin may play a role in the sexual satisfaction/pleasure of not the man, but the woman as well (see links 2, 3, 4).

As long as a guy maintains good genital hygiene, he can minimize/eliminate most problems that would be associated with the foreskin (see link 5). So as long as one cleans his foreskin regularly and promptly, he'll probably never have any "bad effects" from not being circumcised - in fact, he'll be more sensitive and sex might feel better for both him and his partner.

Oh, and a person can get circumcised at any age. It might be worth noting that about 70-80% of the world's male population is uncircumcised, and the vast majority of them never have any problems due to their foreskins.

As long as you keep it clean (which isn't tough; you just pull it back and rub the head when you shower; takes 5-10 seconds and feels good) you'll be okay. If your foreskin works fine then it can even help you, since it slides up and down during sex and masturbation to rub the head of the penis, and since it's already lubed like your eyelids, it's a good feeling, but I'm sure you know that already.

And of course you can get circumcised at any age. The recovery would just painful for a few weeks. But then again, not having it done as a newborn avoided the following and allowed you to keep the advantage of being able to choose.

In addition, circumcision is becoming less popular. As it is, the USA is the last remaining advanced nation who still does it a lot, but that's changing. In some states it's as low as 14%. See link below for statistics.

In addition, new studies published in the British Journal of Urology have found that circumcision reduces sensitivity and pleasure, and makes masturbation more difficult, which is oddly how it became popular in the USA since that was a 'bad' thing to do in the 1800s. Studies linked in the link below.

So if you're not having problems, enjoy it. And if you do have concerns about it, send me an e-mail from my profile; should be easy to fix.

Actually nothing happens to males if they are not circumcised, people from down under have no idea what circumcision is, as it is illegal to do so, it is classified as gential mutilation, to clean your foreskin you just roll back the foreskin in the shower or the bath and wash with water, no problems what so ever,and there is no increased risk of anything, its just part of normal cleanliness, 90% is uncircumcised and they get on just fine, also when your circumcise a male they lost 70% of the sensitivity of the penis, due to what is normally protected, becomes externally skin,and nor do we have circumcision at an older age, btw a childs foreskin is not supposed to be a moving part untill after the age of 3 years, before 3 years it is attached the head of the penis, the same as your fingernail is attached to the tip of your finger, this is why it is mutilation, to medically force something that is naturally attached to the body,

Certainly you can be circumcised when older. You might read the bible stories about that. They just had a sharp rock. Ouch!
Some say that it is harder to keep clean and it is necessary to belong to certain religions notably the Jews.
Others say it cuts down on enjoyment.
It is certainly the usual custom in this country, although there is a vibrant "No Circ" movement.

Lets look at it from both points.

Uncicumsised is more sensitive, and it looks more natural.

Circumsised is probably easier to clean tho

What happens to men if they do not get circumcised? Well, they have normal sex lives, with a lot more enjoyment than their circumcised friends. They satisfy their sexual partners. They get their wives pregnant. They live happy, normal lives in all respects.

Not circumcised is the way men were designed to be. Circumcised is abnormal and undesirable.
