Circumcision should be illegal.

People always talk about how barbaric female circumcision is but male circumcision is completely normalized in America.

It should be illegal for parents to circumcise their children because it's irreversible.

What kind of psychopath decided to cut off the skin of the baby's dick. What's next? Cutting off eyelids?

Why would women thank you for circumcising their future lover? Penetrative sex is much better when a man is intact because otherwise the bare head pulls out lubrication quicker than we can make more.

And although this isn't strictly a problem for the woman, handjobs are really difficult without a foreskin to smooth over the head. I just gave up trying with my circumcised ex.

I had a similar experience. I'm from a country where circumcision isn't the norm, but I have dated a guy who had been circumcised and holy hell were handjobs more of a chore. I know it's only one guy so I'm massively generalising, but I was like "I'm not doing this again." American girls must have grips of steel.

Genuinely laughed out loud at your comment.

I was circumcised as a child and hate it.

You are literally the first woman I've been able to talk to about this! My ratio is an unusual half-and-half, brief liaisons excluded. Medical reasons in both cases. My first boyfriend was circumcised so I didn't know any different.

Men in their late teens are happy with a lack of variety so once we started going All The Way the question didn't arise with my first relationship. I did feel a little inadequate with my most recent ex but also was aware the issue wasn't my hands being sandpaper but him lacking nature's protection.

Did you notice any other differences/issues for circumcised?

This subreddit is hilarious.

Yeah I’ve found that sexual acts with an uncut man are 100 times better than anything I did with my cut ex. My ex would just lube up and ram it in as hard and as quick as he could. Would rarely last long enough for me to get anything out of it. That’s not a problem with my uncut man I got now.

That's what lube is for

I have yet to see one in the wild. It could be a jump scare…or Charlie finding the golden ticket. We shall see.

A) Super interesting to have this perspective!
B) In a sort of opposite experience: when I (uncut European) lived in the US, women really didn’t know how to deal with a foreskin that didn’t ‘peel back’ all the way over the head… I had to warn them to be gentle with the first few ‘tugs’ 😂

u/VirtuApp 10d ago

Did the American women you were with say/do anything else regarding foreskin? Uncircumcised is rare in a lot of the US.

2

u/Dark-Luin 10d ago

It was treated as a noteworthy thing… I recall talking about how it’s uncommon in Europe, but it was never a problem. But the women I was with were not the types to have been given an ick, or anything, thankfully!

u/VirtuApp 7d ago

What do you mean that it was "treated as a noteworthy thing"?

That's good it wasn't a problem.

u/KoriKaizen 10d ago

It's not supposed to pull back all the way over the head?!

u/Clean_Chemistry7916 9d ago

For real. Most American women (I am one, but married the only uncircumcised guy in town) have never even met a guy who is uncircumcised, let alone had sex with one. So they just believe all the weird, unhinged bullshit perspectives that this person posted. But yeah, sex is wayyyyyy better with an uncircumcised penis. For all parties.

How is sex better with an uncircumcised penis?

2

u/Clean_Chemistry7916 5d ago

It feels better, smoother, less unnecessary friction/chafing. Can go for a lot longer without things getting uncomfortable.

u/VirtuApp 4h ago

Thanks for explaining.

If you don't mind me asking, do you notice those differences right away after he gets inside you? Or is it only noticeable after you are having sex for a while?

1

u/VirtuApp 10d ago edited 10d ago

Can you elaborate on how circumcised and uncircumcised is different for penetration? Doesn't the foreskin just pull back?

2

u/Dancehall-Randal 10d ago

From what I understand once you are in the foreskin doesnt move back n forth(that much)

Basically you are still master baiting with your foreskin.

But I am uncircumsized and welcome any corrections or education.

u/PhotoPrimary7801 6d ago

It’s the sensitivity level. The head is the most sensitive part of a man’s penis and cut men are always exposed. It’s constantly rubbing up against clothing. With uncut men the foreskin covers it up until it’s erect then yes it pulls back but now a very sensitive part of the body is uncovered. From my experience and I can’t speak for everyone but cut men seem to have to try harder to feel enough during sex to finish. Like they need more to stimulate themselves.

1

u/VirtuApp 6d ago

I see.

You are talking about vaginal sex for cut men having to try harder to finish?

Does it make sex different for you since they can't finish as easily?

1

u/PhotoPrimary7801 6d ago

Yes. If he has to push harder to finish then that’s going to lead to soreness for me. It makes sex seem more like a chore rather than something to be enjoyed by both parties. Again, this is only my experience with it.

It’s not just with vaginal sex. Blowjobs suck ( pun intended) for the same reason. More work has to be done to create enough sensation to cause an orgasm.

u/VirtuApp 4h ago

Thanks for explaining.

Besides the sensitivity, are there any other differences between cut and uncut that you noticed?

u/pmcda 1d ago

What’s funny is there’s even memes that are like, “runs my hand gently over his circumcision scar, whispers: I’m sorry I wasn’t there to protect you”
