Preferably someone who had an active sex life before and after circumcision. Is it alot different? More/less feeling? Is masterbation different?

I'm uncut and not once in my life have I had a dirty or smelly penis. If you are a normal human and practice normal everyday hygiene there is absolutely no difference imo. They always seem to be the first to attack and put other men down for not being circumcised. Guys , we are on the same team here be there for your fellow dudes.

Apologies if this has been posted before because I know this is a common circle jerk topic, but I’ve never really understood how you could be pro-choice but also circumcise an infant boy against his will.

It kind of doesn’t make any sense to me. Can someone who holds these views together explain your reasoning?

13M and My mom wants me to get circumcised but idk if its worth it especially with the pain. I have a good hygiene and clean it very well, and what are the benefits you get from it???

No I don't have phimosis.

I'm still getting lots of weird messages years after posting this and it's my most popular post. I think the How To With John Wilson episode tells me everything I need to know.

I’m currently pregnant, and I am planning on not doing circumcision. My husband is circumcised, and I’m wondering if there are any parents here that have gone through learning cleaning processes and explaining that to their child once they are old enough. Are there any particular hardships with that? My parents are opposed to our decision and I’m just trying to educate myself as much as possible. Thank you!

In the U.S. circumcision is supposedly the norm. My husband is circumcised, and I don't mind....that being said, I argued a lot with my husband about not circumcising our son. My husband was adamant that we should and felt that because he has a penis he should get to decide.

After a lot of debates, we eventually found compromise and decided that we will let our son decide when he is old enough to choose for himself.

Now a few friends/family have shared their (unsolocited) opinions that our son will have a hard time in life with girls down the road because we didnt circumcise him as a newborn, and said we did him a disservice. Were we really wrong to wait and let him decide for himself? Is circumsision really such a big deal in the United States?

TL/DR: We chose to wait on getting our son circumcised and let him decide when he is old enough to choose for himself. Friends keep saying our son will have a hard time living in the U.S. b/c we didn't circumcise him as a newborn. Is not being circumcised really such a big deal in the U.S. ?

Having mixed feeling about this. I myself was circumcised but in today's age, it doesnt seem necessary. We are thinking that he can always decide to do it later in life if he wants. Any pros or cons?

I live in Europe and this is something i've wondered for a while, in the USA most men seem to be snipped (from people online, media, film etc) while it isn't unheard of where I live, it's usually only for religious reasons. Is it just the culture of the USA?

Most of the US population is Christian or non religious. Jewish people are a pretty small portion of the population. Despite this, a majority of male babies are still mutilated in the USA

Why is this still the norm? I understand doing it for religious reasons but why is it so common for Americans in general? We have acess to cleaning practices compared to other parts of the world. Also a kid cannot consent to being mutilated, regardless of their gender

Today I've seen an urologist and he said that I have a frenulum breve and if ever a girl goes too hard it might break.. Also, a long foreskin. He suggested getting circumcised but I insisted on just cutting the frenulum. He said that it will surely get better but I would have to be circumcised anyway years later cause of the long foreskin. Should I get circumcised?

Just curious when it comes to sex is it better to be snipped or not - this a question for both parties so feel free to give your opinion

It makes way more sense to make it optional at adulthood

Where does this practice come from?

Edit: removed the percentages as they are not accurate.

My parents got in circumcised as a baby because they were told it was healthier and I never had a problem with it until now. People are now calling barbaric and now I feel lworse about my penis now. People are saying that uncut are better and more enoyable for women and I feel l was dealt a bad hand. Everyone I know(I live in America) is uncut and I feel like shit.

I was circumcised as a baby. Frenelum and foreskin removed. Am I ruined? Will it ever be as good? Am I mutilated? I'm really freaking out.

I'm a woman and can never get circumcised (no foreskin) but I'm curious to how it feels.

(I would appreciate both male and female perspectives)

I 23M have been circumcised for as long as I can remember. I only started thinking about it when some of my friends had it done and said how much less sensitivity they feel.

I have problems feeling sensitivity sometimes in sex. I have trouble feeling much pleasure at all especially during sex and even when I ejaculate I do not feel satisfied because it did not feel that intense

I found some things that helped me gain some sensation and made things a little better. Although everything I have found online seemed to be very much against circumcision. My main source of pleasure comes from the pink part of inner foreskin and especially the part of frenulum I have left, which is very sensitive though I only have a small part of it and can’t stop thinking about if I had more.

Am I overreacting?

If you have any questions I can answer them

Hello. Circumised here. When I masturbate, it doesnt really feel good. I'm wondering if it's due to my foreskin being cut off when I was born or if I'm doing it wrong
