How does a man’s circumcision or lack of it affect a woman during sex?

I’ve seen guys on G@G asking women if they prefer cut or uncut men, although I’ve never considered which I’d rather have on my future partner. Does circumcision really make much of a difference for the woman?

  • Well, you figure that the foreskin is not only full of nerves that please the man, but the foreskin keeps the head of the penis moist and sensitive (making sex gentler on the woman). The skin moving back and forth reduces the amount of vaginal lubrication needed for sex by providing a sheathe of skin for the shaft to move through , AND there are bands of cartilage in the skin that not only stroke the penis shaft, but they add a little extra friction for the woman to enjoy.

    A circumcised man, by contrast, has fewer nerves to feel with so he's going to naturally be rougher (this is fact, by the way, not my opinion), the act of thrusting his penis in and out will dry the woman's natural lubrication by exposing it to air repeatedly (making lube a good idea for most circumcised men), and because he doesn't have that sheathe of skin (nor the cartilage bands inside of it), the woman's labia are aren't being gently rubbed by extra skin, they're being rubbed a lot more vigorously, and the tighter shaft is going to create a greater amount of friction (which sounds better, until you remember the drying effect of exposing the penis to air during sex)

    So basically, the foreskin makes sex a more, sensitive, comfortable, and softer experience. It is.. astounding to me that anyone would dispute whether or not a foreskin makes for better sex.

  • On a circumcised penis the coronal ridge scrapes the wall of the vagina, causing soreness, and draws lubricant out of the vagina causing dryness whereas on an uncircumcised penis the foreskin cushions the coronal ridge and helps keep lubricant in the vagina.

    On a circumcised penis there is direct friction between the penis and vagina, whereas with an uncircumcised penis the foreskin glides back and fourth during the in and out strokes, lessening the direct friction and resulting soreness.

    Circumcised sex is more forceful as it the circumcised penis is less sensative and needs more rough stimulation to orgasm. Uncircumcised sex is gentler by comparison as the penis is more sensative.

    • I have never seen a penis that had so much skin removed that there was not plenty to slide back and forth. As a circumcised male I have never had the lubricant pulled out. Never had soreness for myself or my partner. With no roughness from friction, I have never had a loss of sensation. ON the other hand, I have never had the problems uncircumcised men have like pain to pull the foreskin back, problems cleaning that area, etc. Of course you are not the first one I have known to make those statements, but as I said, they just do not apply to me and I assume do not apply to most circumcised men.

  • Circumcision involves removing the skin and some nerve endings which ends up reducing the man sensations so he has to thrust harder into the woman to get a better level of sensation. That extra thrusting can cause friction for the woman making her more prone to vaginal infections. The skin on the penis, also, works as a buffer for the woman too. I did not know any of this until a couple years ago when someone posted it on you tube or something. It really changed my thinking on circumcision.

    I'd say the real loser in this is the man.

  • Visually id really prefer circumcised. I wouldn't not date an uncircumcised man tho

  • Apparently uncut is better as it has a natural ribbed effect. That's why they add ribbed textures to condoms and sex toys, because it's mimicking the natural sensation of a natural dick.
    But I have never heard a woman say they could tell the slightest difference. Circumcision is a purely cosmetic procedure in America or religious, there is no medical benefit and there are multiple negatives including n he deaths of many babies every year so I don't know why it still happens.

  • It makes no difference to a woman's physical enjoyment. She may have a preference visually but in a blind test, you wouldn't know the difference.

  • Imagine cutting approximately 15 square inches of skin off your genitals, complete with 20,000 fine touch nerve endings, and having a dried, keratinized and desensitized clit, then ask how it affects the man.

    While I can't speak for women, I can speak for men, and will say that procedure is the most painful thing a man can go through sans disembowelment or possibly burning to death. Broken bones, 2nd degree burns, cuts... those pale in comparison. Speaking from personal experience.

    Perhaps it will take women speaking up about their own issues with cut men in order to stop it in this country. Meanwhile, it's "momma's choice" to cut a boy, but girls are safe.

  • I'm not circumcised and personally not sure why it's even acceptable to do that to an consenting infant and don't buy into that "it's more hygienic" BS either. Just wash it... doesn't matter if there's skin there or not. Most of the world's population is uncut. Circumcision is something that only Americans and some African countries partake in, largely for religious purposes. Anyway any time the conversation came up (in my very short/unimpressive sex-life) they've always reacted positively saying it feels better on the grounds that it is thicker (more volume) and more comfortable because it is more lubricated..

  • I haven’t noticed any difference.

  • I was cut as an adult and had the same partner before and after.
    for her it made:
    - giving me hj without lube harder
    - giving me bj easier and super clean
    - the look different - which is a matter of preference
    - slightly more friction during penetration and mkre feeling of the edge of the head on the outstroke, where with uncircumcised to some extent the guy slides back and forth inside the foreskin which is held in place. She found that an improvement, women who find sex too rough and always want more lube might prefer uncut.

  • Natures condom.

  • circumized dick is desgusting no offence, its not natural either,
    we was suppose to have skin over the bellend,,, thats the way god made it,,,, it serves a purpose of sliding over the head and protecting it... circumsizion is genital mutilation

    • im glad my mum was not totally retarded and allowed me to keep it... not that it would ever matter anyway,,, since i will always be a virgin

  • for me the foreskin keeps getting tangled in my pubic hair.

    it gets really annoying

  • to those that say they prefer a circumcised man... Reverse the genders and pretend you heard a man say he prefers a circumcised woman... You feel that outrage.. We feel the same when you say that about a man. If you prefer your men mutilated like that you're the monster not us.

  • From my personal experiments (I'm uncircumcised, but got my ways to simulate circumcision), the circumcised penis is harder to stimulate. In my opinion, a cut man lasts longer.

  • Not really. Its more for the benefit or lack there of for the guy.

  • I don't think it adds or subtracts anything from the physical sensation of sex for the woman. I think the only effect would be if she takes enjoyment from the appearance or actually playing with the foreskin.

  • The foreskin reduces friction during sex meaning less lubrication is required.

  • I don't know you have to tell me that one

  • I think it does make a difference for the woman. But it’s up to them to answer. 😉

  • I find that circumcision makes the man less selfish and more focused on pleasing the woman, it makes him more clitoris centered.

  • I'm cut and Im sure I enjoy sex as. much as anyone uncut. Also I've never had any complaints from girls I've been with.
    They say ct is cleaner

  • Let’s not condone male genital mutilation.

    • yess

  • I'm not sure it has any noticable affect on women, on men, make us more sensitive. I've been cut, and it hasn't affected my sex life, or the woman I'm with
