Does a circumsizion really promote better sex?

Question

Or is it about the same whether or not you are circumsized? and does it really affect penis size?

Answer 1

Many of the studies that originally found that circumcision would reduce AIDS/HIV were biased, inaccurate, and only done in Africa, which is completely different then the US or Europe:
http://www.circumstitions.com/HIV.html

A study that was just announced yesterday on MSNBC and Reuters found that a study in the United States found that circumcision does not protect American men and women from HIV or AIDS:
http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/22096758/

Check out HIV statistics:
https://www.cia.gov/library/publications/the-world-factbook/rankorder/2155rank.html

As you can see, the United States (the industrialized nation with the highest circumcision rate, has the highest HIV rate). Most of Europe and Latin America (who don't circumcise) have lower rates.

In addition, another medical study found that prostitution, not circumcision (specifically mentioned in the conclusion) is what spreads HIV that much; that makes sense.

Circumcision has become less common. Circumcision rates were as high as 90% back in the 1960s and 1970s (that's partly why today's adults are so... brainwashed, I supposed you could say, about thinking that circumcision is better) but they have fallen to as low as 14% in some states. Here are the statistics:
http://www.cirp.org/library/statistics/USA/staterates2004/

The USA is the last developed nation doing it to a large number of newborns without religious or medical needs. (Europeans, Latin Americans, Japanese, and most Australians, Canadians, and Asians don't circumcise):

In a medical study, it was found that females are more likely to hit orgasm with an uncircumcised man:
http://www.healthcentral.com/drdean/408/60750.html

The lubricated foreskin (on the inside... like your eyelids) slides up and down during sex and masturbation to stimulate the head (which is why you don't hear of uncircumcised guys needing lube to masturbate).
http://www.cirp.org/pages/anat/

Studies have found that circumcision reduces sensitivity (this article also mentions how it has lost popularity in the USA in recent times):
http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,285532,00.html

And despite being more sensitive, uncircumcised guys still last in the same six minute range (average) that circumcised guys do:
http://www.blackwell-synergy.com/doi/abs/10.1111/j.1743-6109.2005.00070.x

Circumcision makes masturbation more difficult:
http://www.blackwell-synergy.com/doi/abs/10.1111/j.1464-410X.2006.06646.x

Which makes sense, that's how circumcision was promoted in the USA:

Increases erectile dysfunction rates:

If too much skin is removed in circumcision, it can make the penis smaller since the penis needs some skin to expand during an erection:

Circumcision does not completely stop penile cancer. The American Cancer Society has already confirmed the myth that circumcision = no cancer.
http://www.cancer.org/docroot/CRI/content/CRI_2_4_2X_Can_penile_cancer_be_prevented_35.asp

If circumcision did stop penile cancer, then penile cancer would not be more common in the USA (most circumcised adults) than in some European nations, where circumcision is not practiced other than for medical/religious reasons.

Answer 2

No, studies show it seems to promote worse sex. Makes sense as you lose all that nice sensitive skin. Then again it depends on the individual and most men who get cut as adults and give an opinion both ways obviously wanted to get cut, so they had psychological and/or physical reasons for not wanting a foreskin, thus they didn't have a normal foreskin experience. Also it takes time for the glans to lose sensitivity, years, whereas people who were cut at birth don't have sex until around 15 years or more after their circumcision.

You lose a bit of girth with circumcision from the skin but it shouldn't affect size unless it is done too tightly and restricts erection.

Answer 3

I started out life uncut, and got the slice when I was an adult. And I wished I had done it sooner!!!!! I won't say sex is better, just different. When uncut, you get the gliding of the foreskin back and forth over the head. When cut, it's pure friction. And I think overall, a better feel. Getting cut did NOT make me less sensitive; in fact, it's even more sensitive. And no, it did not affect my size. Now, it is possible that too much shaft skin can be removed, and that would affect size. But if it's done right, there's no difference. I also can't say stay uncut or get cut; that's an individual decision. I guess the best thing about not having it done as a baby is that I had the choice. And I feel I chose wisely.

Answer 4

Hey;

Circumcisions (in the UK) are only really done as a matter of religious or medical reasons. In the US however i think they're still carried out on a widely basis, but the trend is going down.

They don't promote better sex or make your penis bigger. It has no effect whatsoever on size. All it does is (on an advantage) is make it easier to clean. I myself an uncircumcised and aged 16, I have not really heard of much difference being circumcised, i have a mate who is and he doesn't say there is any difference.

Most of the stuff you mentioned above is just rumours.

Hope this helps you !

Answer 5

Nope. Only 30% or less of all males in the world-- out or 3 billion males--- are circumsized so while in some places like the US it is the "norm" it is often quite unusual in other countries. Certainly as done to small infants or even boys at 12 or 13 it is a barbaric act that eventually will go the way of the dinosaur.

Answer 6

Male circumcision harms sexuality, for both the man
and his female partner. The evidence is irrefutable.

Foreskin promotes better sex.

is detrimental to sex, especially for the woman during intercourse.



Nature equips every male with a foreskin for a reason: To create

Answer 7

Circumcision in no way promotes better sex, unless you have phimosis or a foreskin ailment.

It reduces sensitivity and depending on how much they take off, it can cause erections to be painful and uncomfortable.

As for penis size, it doesn't affect length but it can affect girth. Again, depending on how much they take off.

Why, are you considering getting cut?

Answer 8

having been cut at the age of 23, i can tell you that life for me BEFORE circumcision was BETTER.
the helmet of my penis has become desensitised, has lost its healthy colour and become wrinkly.
I also get some funny looks at the gym, because i'm in the minority.

Answer 9

Well having been circumcised at 18 and having been sexually active, I can assure you sex is 100% better circumcised! It is real, unlike when you are with foreskin which is basically masturbating inside your partner! I would never opt to be uncut! I would get circumcised again in a NY minute! It does increase the size of your helmet!

Answer 10

Heck, no! In fact guys with a natural penis are just a little larger down there (helllllo -- they are cutting something off, which makes it smaller!), have more satisfying sex, and give their partners orgasms much more often than cut guys.
