Less sensation in cut penises

[Harrier]

People who aren't cut always say that guys who are cut "feel less" when having sex. I have always believed it at their word but lately I'm starting to wonder if that's possible!!?? I'm cut and I mean I can't imagine sex feeling ANY better than it already does. I can't imagine MORE sensation. I mean tbh if it's true that cut guys have less feeling than I'm glad cuz if it felt better I would cum sooner.

[garfield221]

I´m uncut and I cant feel a thing down there, I even tried sandpaper on my gland and still couldn´t feel nothing, so dont worry

[jamie_n5]

I think there really is very little if any difference in sexual sensation or pleasure whether or not you are circumcised or not. It's more of a physical difference than anything.

[mick01]

I agree with Jamie. I can't imaging having more sensation there during sex. It feels amazing.

[Zachary G]

I don't know where they get off saying that cut guys have reduced sensitivity because I am cut and the head of my peen is just as sensitive, if not more when I am erect and having sex or masturbating.

Well you cant imagine it because thats all you know.
The truth is that uncut ppl enjoy far more than cut guys.. it also depends on how much time has passed since ur circumcision- the desensitisation process occurs over time. For example i was cut at birth, so at this age 17 i feel a bit less than an uncut fella my age, but at the age of 40 the difference will be huge.

Dont circumcised your kids lol

[TheMagicPotato]

So, basically, I don't understand how something as trivial as Circumcision can make an impact on sex enjoyment.

[Turbofan explosion]

I am cut, and it seems to take forever to cum.

Ya I get that I don't know different since it's all I know. But how do uncut people KNOW how CUT people feel???? All people know is how they feel. They don't know how much I feel!!! Also I don't get your age analogy? So cut people feel less at age 40 than 17??? Idk this. I knew old people can't get hard without viagra but idk they feel less. Also, you're saying that an unct guy will not feel less over time? He won't feel less at 40??? This makes no sense.

[NewLeafsFan]

You could argue that either way. You could say that because the glands is constantly exposed it eventually loses sensitivity. Or you could say that without the possibility of foreskin getting in the way there is more contact and friction without foreskin.

Personally, I got circumcised about 9 months ago and I prefer masturbating this way. It's an opinion thing. That being said, I was cut very loosely.

how was your circumcision?

[SeansLittleBro]

Well like all the cut guys on here I have to agree I can't imagine any more sensation tht I feel being cut....I know that there is probably more moisture being uncut becasue of the covering, but we do precum in excitement, most of us do, and that helps with the sensatioin....

[zzzzzzzzzz]

To me it's what you know. I've not been cut, so don't know what that's like and vice versa. Even if you were cut when older, you may have had it done for a medical issue, (tight foreskin) so may have a skewed opinion. It will be difficult to truly know, as we are all used to what we have

[NZPerson]

Well ya see i am still intact and if i pull my skin back and then put undies on its soosensitive i can barely handle it. I asume cut dudes dont get this feelingor it would drive them crazy, therefore desensitization must be a thing.

[NewLeafsFan]

how was your circumcision?

Really good. Almost painless. It was worth the few days off school. It wasn't worth going over 2 weeks without masturbating though. I was put out and after the surgery I was prescribed Tylenol threes with codeine, which I really didn't need. It just hurt a bit when I'd get up off the couch, or go up stairs. And erections hurt for a few weeks but overall it was a lot easier than I thought it would be.

Lets look at this logically: the penis has X nerves endings which provide you pleasure. The foreskin is about a third of all of them. Circumcision, removes MOST of the foreskin, leaving you with a dried out desensitised dick.
You can check that out by realising that you still have a little foreskin between ur head and the circ scar. Rub it for a sec
Feels good right? Now imagine having 4 times more of this. That's the difference

[german_boy]

It also depends on the amount of remaining inner skin. If you have a high circumcision, you are more sensible than with a low cut (where most of the inner skin is removed). To feel the difference, swipe over your inner palm with a finger. Then do the same with the outer palm. Feel the difference? I was cut when I was older and lost a little sensitivity, but it's not that much.

Well logically speaking, assuming you're facts are correct (and I have no reason to believe they aren't) My cut penis still has 2/3 of all nerve endings (not a bad percentage at all). Also my dick isn't dry. I never understood why people accuse people with cut dicks of that. I have never used lube to jerk off in my life. I don't need it. I will try to rub that area later when i get a chance, but in the meantime I think the entire dick feels great, but when i do focus on one particular area (which is almost never) it's usually the huge hard vein under the dick. That part feels pretty good imo. But all that said, if the foreskin is a major feel good part of the penis then yes I can get that having it would be good.

[rohancool]

So, basically, I don't understand how something as trivial as Circumcision can make an impact on sex enjoyment.

Because I think sex is similar to masturbation. With uncut penis, there are more nerve endings that provide sensation and with foreskin you might not need lubrication during masturbation. It should be same for sex since enjoyment is all about sensation from nerves.

I guess there is a big difference between your hand and a vagina, butt, mouth.

Yeah I know. Crudely, different level of tightness and lubrication like vagina can be wet while butt would be tight and need external lube. What I meant was:

Circumcision removes foreskin which has several nerve endings. Foreskin also glides providing sensation and sometimes uncut person might not lube. This provides some added enjoyment on sex. But if foreskin is tight, then a person might have better experience after circumcision. So all I was trying was to point how being circumcised or not impact ones sex enjoyment.

[NigelG]

it is a difficult thing to correlate.
A circumcised penis will loose sesitivity over time. I have always had to tuck my dick in due to being sensative (i was cut at 3) I have been restoring and my glans feels way better for it.
The scientific studys forget one important aspect... the foreskin contains all the nerve endings, cut it off you can't compare. If you are cut and have a remnant of frenulum that will be your most sensitive part.
so sorry to say to all the cut dudes on here, its great while you are young but as you get older keratinisation reduces any feeling in the end of your penis.

[Sweeney05]

I'm cut and have been since I was a baby, so I don't really know any different. But I know it feels good when I jerk off, so who cares.

[ncraw]

My foreskin itself is very sensitive and I can cum just by kinda rubbing that bridge on the bottom between my penis and foreskin and also the inside of the foreskin, it's probably the most sensitive part of my penis. That may be what they mean by sensitivity - lose the foreskin = lose the most sensitive part. My penis head also can't touch anything directly or I'll get a massive boner and could probably cum if I let it go on for longer than a few minutes. I can also cum without being turned on by someone or something, which is how I pretty much always masturbate. If someone didn't have foreskin the head wouldn't obviously become used to being exposed and constantly touching clothes so it's going to get desentitized.

[JamesCam]

Yes you lose sensitivity. I had it done over 3 years ago and there is an enormous difference.
Do I enjoy wanking less .. no .. I still orgasm and still enjoy it. I never had sex before I was circumcised so I can’t answer that.
Before I was circumcised I couldn’t let me helmet be exposed and rub against anything the sensitivity would have been too much. Now it can put up with anything.
The foreskin gives huge amounts of additional pleasure, but I haven’t got one so hey I enjoy what I’ve got!

[ChaseDakoda]

I´m uncut and I cant feel a thing down there, I even tried sandpaper on my gland and still couldn´t feel nothing, so dont worry

You used SANDPSPER ON YOUR PENIS?

[Jaffe]

Being intact, I cannot say what it feels like to be cut.
That said, I can say that my glans, when the foreskin is pulled back, is VERY sensitive. To touch it is almost painful, and very light touches can cause orgasm. I do not know what the glans is like for cut guys, but I would assume that the constant exposure to stimuli would make it less sensitive.

[CoryW]

I'm cut and if I hold my Weiner and rub the head it's pretty sensitive

[sumatera]

i really really enjoy when i touch the head, especially when it full of precum haha

[Alpha-1]

I think everyone is different, but I'm glad I'm cut. My grandpa had to get cut in his twenties because of an infection and the story he tells isn't pretty.

[BluePi]

I was uncut till last month and for me it didn't change a thing I still feel everything the same way, sometimes even more

[ChaseDakoda]

Good for you, why were u cut?

[BluePi]

Good for you, why were u cut?

I had a few cysts in the foreskin and the doctor said that I had 2 opitions: take the off one by one or get cut, and since the head of my dick didn't go all the way out when I was hard (I didn't like that) I preferred to get cut, it wasn't a big deal for me

[ChaseDakoda]

I m not allow to comment, this girl mod wants me banned, she swears at me.

But you know i got a lot to say about your STORY.

[Tim the Enchanter]

I m not allow to comment, this girl mod wants me banned, she swears at me.

Gotta stop acting like there's some big conspiracy revolving around you getting banned.

[ChaseDakoda]

Ya the guy with cyst, I looked it up over 3 hours and I did not see how a circumcision shoukd of been suggested. Lat of guts have cysts and don't get circumcised, this guys doctor needed money for his BMW payment

[Jeff8]

I am cut. I've never had sex, but i know from masturbating that it feels intense, so i am no sure what they are talking about!

[TrueCharlie14]

I´m uncut and I cant feel a thing down there, I even tried sandpaper on my gland and still couldn´t feel nothing, so dont worry

I do not advise ANYONE doing this!

[Hermes]

I guess there is a big difference between your hand and a vagina, butt, mouth.

I can't speak for butt but there is certainly a distinctly different feel according to what is is that is stimulating your penis. But in every case it feels great and there is much more difference between having your penis stimulated by something, no matter what it is, and not having it stimulated than there is between each of the things that could be stimulating it.

I know if I slide my foreskin over the head I can feel sensations in the foreskin as well as in the head so I have no reason to doubt those who say that circumcision removes some nerve endings that give pleasure. For all that, though, clearly enough remain to continue to give a great deal of pleasure. I also think the brain has a part to play here - if you are listening to music and one track is quieter than the one that went before you probably turn up the volume control and maybe turn it down when a much louder track comes on. I think the brain may be doing some of that here.

So, whilst I remain of the opinion that baby boys should have their penises left alone because, in the absence or urgent and clear medical need, they should be allowed to make decisions about their own bodies when they are old enough to understand, guys who have been circumcised clearly continue to enjoy their penises very much and should continue to do that rather than worry about whether the grass is greener on the other side.

[NickOc]

Ive heard there are more nerve endings in the foreskin making it much better

[JakeMakes]

The only way to say which is better is to experience both.
The only people who can tell which is better, is people who had sex and then got cut, and then had sex again. and even then it will also depend on the circumstances, the partner, and a bunch of other factors

anything else is only a giant pile of "maybe" and "I guess", nothing concrete whatsoever

[german_boy]

Technically speaking, the foreskin has two layers. One sensitive inner one and one outer one that isn't as sensitive as the inner one. You can feel the difference by touching your hand with one finger on the one and the other side. As most boys get "high" circumcisions, lots of inner skin is left and likewise are the nerves. Most of the nerves, however, are in the glans. As a result of the permanent exposure of the head, its skin gets a bit thicker leading to a lower sensitivity.

For some people, that can be a bad thing. For some it's a good thing as you last longer during intercourse. There are several studies about how much circumcision affects your sensitivity. I know both uncut and cut as I was circumcised later in life and can tell from my own experience that my sensitivity has decreased by a little. I'm still feeling a lot and am very glad to be cut.

[JQL---]

There is no proof in the affirmative or negative. In the future, we may know more to make a more informed guess.

I go along with this totally. All ee need now is an unbiased control group. Not sure we will find one here so this argument will probably go on for ever.

[Chris298]

Meh I've been cut my whole life so ill never really know, I mean I've heard this before and I always kinda wondered, but there is anything I can do about it... Jerking off and sex both feel amazing anyways, so I'm good! :D

[mick01]

Just some results of a scientific study;
• Researchers surveyed the sexual function, pleasure, and satisfaction of 2,784 uncircumcised sexually active adult men. Then they circumcised 1,391 of them, and re-surveyed the entire group every six months for two years. In every survey, the two groups showed no statistically significant differences in sexual function, pleasure, or satisfaction.
The researchers also asked the circumcised men additional questions focusing on any differences they noticed before and after the procedure. At the two-year mark, 99.9 percent of the men said they felt “satisfied with their circumcisions,” and far from decreasing penile sensitivity, 72 percent said their sensitivity had increased. In addition, 78 percent said circumcision made it easier to don condoms.

LOLLLLLLLLLL
If you have the source of this study, maybe you should show it to all these anticirc freaks that claimed we dont feel anything and that our sex life is messed up !

[Jermy]

I am cut, and if I was anymore sensitive I would not be able to walk around. Haha

[Mika27]

I'm cut and I know my head is sensitive af!
Tell me about it! I'm cut and so sensitive i cum in seconds!

[allgrownup]

it's probably just a different sensation tbh

[ShiningStar]

I agree with Jamie. I can't imaging having more sensation there during sex. It feels amazing.

I agree totally also

[scentlessapprentice]

circumcision severes thousands of nerves, but that doesn't necessarily mean it feels better

[jcreah]

cut and only last 20-40 seconds.

[Allstar49]

I don’t think there is much of a difference. I mean I get a lot of my sensations from the head of my penis so I would image if there was a forskin covering that I would feel it less. I don’t know for sure but I feel like I’m getting enough sensation so I’m not gonna worry about it.

[HeyCameron]

Well there has to be some difference. Look at this way: a cut guy walks around with his glans in contact with the fabric of his underwear all day long. An uncut guy doesn't because the glans is protected by the foreskin. In fact, if I retract my foreskin and walk around (simulating what it's like to walk around without a foreskin), I can't do it for very long. It's unpleasant and it makes me wince having my glans touch fabric like that. Yet for cut guys that is the default and as far as I know, they aren't wincing all the time as they walk. So unless I'm remarkably sensitive and the only uncut guy for whom this is true, I would say that proves that there is a difference.

[Gamer.]

I think it depends on how it is stimulated (in everyday life vs in a sexual manner).
If I move the palm of my hand in a circle over the glans, it is quite uncomfortable. Having the glans come in contact with underwear during exercise does, on occasion, produce an awkward erection.
I am in no way saying that there isn't a difference, there is no way for me (a guy who was circumcised at birth) to know what it is like to expose the glans to underwear after not having contact with it for awhile

[unicornGirl]

As a woman, I can say the following.
I grew up in a large family in the US where all boys were circumcised.
All really happy with it and no problems. Have normal sex and several children.
Here in Germany, where few children are not circumcised immediately after birth, there are often problems later and as an adult with the foreskin (Too tight, inflammation, etc.)
Especially late cut men then report that circumcised sex is better and more intense.
Being circumcised has more advantages than disadvantages.
And most men come too early, so they feel too much rather than too little!
I work with a urologist and get the daily with.

As a woman on the subject of sex.
Had some men circumcised and others who were not.
From the men there was no difference in the sex during sex the impression also the circumcised men longer can not always true.
Is for me as a woman by feeling only so that it is cut from the glans ago Intensive there is nothing in between.
And purely optical and touch is pruned just beautiful and pleasant.
I also prefer to circumcise for the man is easier to clean (not every time to clean toilet) and he can never have problems with the foreskin.

[jakec2100]

I feel like there isn't much difference or just depends on how they're cut (high/low). I've seen people say that it feels the same if not better and people say its worse after being cut so yeah

[Oscar-V3.0]

Well there has to be some difference. Look at this way: a cut guy walks around with his glans in contact with the fabric of his underwear all day long. An uncut guy doesn't because the glans is protected by the foreskin

So a cut guy's glans rubs against underwear, while an uncut guy's glans rubs against a skin which itself rubs against the underwear

Does that really make a difference?

[HeyCameron]

So a cut guy's glans rubs against underwear, while an uncut guy's glans rubs against a skin which itself rubs against the underwear

Does that really make a difference?

Yes it does for me. Fabric feels quite unpleasant against the glans.

[vandilization]

Think of it this way, what would it matter if you're already cut. Most people who are already uncut won't get circumsized later and the ones that still are uncut wouldn't even know the difference.

[Gamer.]

Yes it does for me. Fabric feels quite unpleasant against the glans.

Have you considered trying to "power through" the unpleasantness in an attempt to desensitize the glans temporarily?
It'd be interesting to see how it adapts.

[scott2002]

I'm cut from the time of my birth, and I've been masturbating for more than 4 years and in the last year I was lucky to have (safe) vaginal sex without a condom a couple of times for the first time in my life. I gotta say, I cannot imagine my dick feeling any better during either of these sexual activities if I still had a foreskin. I am perfectly happy with the sensations that I'm getting already.

[JQL---]

Have you considered trying to "power through" the unpleasantness in an attempt to desensitize the glans temporarily?

That's a horrible idea. Not only would that be painful, but also a waste of time. It would take several weeks of near constant contact to achieve that.

[paxtonwrestles]

I am cut. I have never been uncut. So how would I know the difference?! I like being cut though.
