i dont know whether to get circumcised or not because from what i hear the majority of girls prefer circumcised but from all that ive read being uncircumcised can be more pleasurful even though for me it hurts if i pull back my foreskin so basicly what i dont want to happen is i have sex and have a girl see that im uncircumcised, freak out, and then go to every one i no "omg hes uncircumcised wat a loser" and then to have my social life go up in smoke and be teased by everyone i no for the rest of my high school career and possibly college. so yea if anyone has anything to say i could really use the help. to circumcise or not

circumcised =cleaner
i mean the best argument is more cleaness and less smelling. thats important for each relationship. you cant be surprised less in a happy situation with your partner, when the last shower is a longer time ago, isnt it?
And a clean unsmelling penis bring you than shurly more fun by your partner, you can imagine the situation?

hygene isnt really an issue for me but what i want to know is if its worth waiting to have sex untill i get circumcised (and if its even a good idea) or stay uncircumcised and have sex with a girl without her caring that i am uncircumcised because i doubt that any girl i know has ever seen an uncircumcised penis

for normal sex this question isnt so important,
but for all oral games a circed penis will be much more appatizing for the girls to use it....

dont do anything to your penis for the sake of someone else and what they may think. If a girl looks down on you or makes you feel bad then shes shallow and you deserve someone better anyway! And some women find the foreskin hot. Not all women even care. If they like or love the man then they like and love their penis to.

I personally nejoy playing with my mans skin. Hes circumsized but they left A small amt of skin at the bottom…I don’t know but its sexy!
Do it for yourself or for medical purposes. Otherwise you might regret it. I hear its really painful the older you are.

an uncircumcized penis doesnt mean a dirty smelly penis

you just have to keep it clean, just like us girls have to keep ourselves clean

My son is 22 and not circumcized. He never once has complained and he and his fiancee have been together for a year now and are expecting their first child.

I will say this, my son did not want to have sex though until he was with the right person, his fiancee whom he is with now. So he never had to worry about any highschool drama.

I'm not sure but I've heard that circumcision may damage some sexual glands off your penis and result in less sensation on it. Don't know, I'm circumcised myself and I don't feel any downsides of it, but who knows, maybe I'd feel even better if my parents did not circumcise me.

It's much neater when circumcised
I have seen and played with both types. I find the circumcised ones better looking and nicer during sex.

I think this is kind of impossible. 'You don't feel any downside" many circumcised men say this, but if you were circumcised at birth, you don't know your foreskin. You have no basis for comparison. I too was cut at birth and don't know what it would have been like. But I am surely missing something - even though sex still feels good.

Please don't worry about what others think. On of my best friends was not circumcised because he was born in Canada but then moved to the states.

He never once had anyone make fun of him, or tease him because of his foreskin.. If anything, you should be making fun of the kids who got circumcised as you have a natural penis (actually, don't make fun of anyone - that was a joke)

In reality, some girls may be surprised at first because they are likely expecting a circumcised penis - in America that's (sadly) the norm. However, and girl with common sense knows about foreskins and wouldn't make fun of you.

Research it a bit.. Girls tend to dry out more with they have sex with a circumcised penis vs. uncircumcised. Its there for a reason, its normal, just keep it clean.

the most importand argument for circ
is the statistic improved fact, that the wifes have significant less cancer, which have intercourse with circed men.
The reason is the the greater cleaness in a naturally way.
For an uncirced man the cleaned penis is sometimes only very theoretically.... - more or less (and the wifes have the problem without their knoledge).
About this you can say, what you will!

In Australia it is the norm not to circumcise these days. Many paediatricians refuse to do it as they consider it barbaric. It does not seem to bother anyone here.

Hi, I have had many sexual partners and and I'm not circumcised, I have never had any complaints and I think it's better to keep things how nature intended, honest a girl will never freak out! Oh and the pain will cease after having sex a couple of times it's just you haven't stretched the skin much before, I had the same problem when younger.

A tight foreskin (Phimosis) may be down to your masturbation habits. It may be simple to cure without circumcision.

The average age for the foreskin to retract is 10 years of age. For some boys though it doesn't become retractable until the early teenage years.

Certain masturbation techniques that differ from the normal up and down motion mimicking sex can damage both the foreskin and the 3 delicate spongy arteries within the penis.
Examples of damaging masturbation habits include:
*Rubbing the penis head through clothes - often pushing down on the penis. And :
*Thrusting against the bed.

This does 2 things. Firstly, rubbing the top of the foreskin and manipulating it in an unnatural manner creates scar tissue. This scar tissue is inelastic. Normal foreskin tissue is pliable making it easier to retract.

Secondly, the large pressure applied to the penis means that the spongy arteries that make up the penis may be damaged. Consequently, the penis doesn't fill up with blood properly and doesn't stretch the skin from the inside-out in the normal manner.

Check for signs of damage:
The glans (the head underneath) can be sensitive and
Each side of the pee-slit is red.

So, do you do any of these techniques? I'd be interested to know.

Presuming you do, a few things you need to do to cure the unretractable foreskin.
Initially , give your penis time to repair the spongy arteries that may have been damaged. Do this by masturbating as little as possible initially. You can start doing it again after a while - but don't do it too frequently.

Then, change to the masturbation technique where you just move the foreskin up and down applying as little pressure as possible. Stop any 'rubbing' masturbation techniques.

I'm pretty sure if you stick with this advice - it will retract in no time.

If you do the above you won't need a circumcision. Circumcision is bad for several reasons.

The foreskin contains many specialized nerves on it's underside. When the foreskin is moved up and down it is very pleasurable. Circumcised men have lost this ability to masturbate easily as there is no gliding effect. Circumcised men often have to resort to artificial lubrication in masturbation and sex.

Without the foreskin protecting the glans, circumcised men lose further sensitivity. The glans (head of the penis) dries out. It also brushes on underwear causing the skin to toughen.

There are good reasons to believe that sex is better for the woman as well, if the man has his foreskin intact

Circumcision is also a risky procedure with a lot of complications:

Please don't get circumcised because of what other people might think. My boyfriend was born in Italy, and they don't really practice circumcision there so he has his foreskin and I'm totally cool with it. Same goes for the other girls he has been with (the little man-who** ¬¬)

I think circumcision is kind of barbaric, actually O_o Don't do it if you can help it. The people who would tease you just because you're uncircumcised are pretty immature in my opinion, and not worth listening to.

Hey crsroads
At this stage of your life you're really better off not getting circumcised unless you have a health issue. While circumcision of children has no impact on sexual sensitivity as those glands aren't even developed at the age of circumcision, an adult or teen undergoing the procedure does risk loss of function or possibly worse.

Women really don't care about circumcision. For every girl out there doesn't like uncircumcised men there is one that loves them and 10 more that have no opinion at all. Worry less about your penis.
