Do you prefer men who are circumcised or uncircumcised?

[Corinne 16]

Hi all,

it's me again, the woman who always has penis-questions!

 

We are currently living in Germany, and are planning on going to our first visit to a swingers club in this area.

 

I talked to a friend of mine, she is American and knows about our lifestyle, and when I told her about us going there, she surprised me with her comment that she could never go to a german club "because all the guys are not circumcised, and that is sooo yucky and disgusting!"

 

Well, I am german, married to a cut American, but I have been with intact guys before, and have yet to meet a "yucky and disgusting" one, even giving oral sex, makes no difference to me.

 

But after doing some research on the net, it seems like this is a very common response, mostly in American women (and I don't mean that in any disrespectful way, just an observation I made).

 

So my question would be, do most of you ladies also have a problem with this? If you would come to a European country, would you refrain from swinging because of this?

 

curious in Germany!

[TNT 1,155]

Well, since my husband is uncut, I guess you could say that is my preference, since he is definitely my preference.

 

I had never even seen a cut penise before we started swinging. I have no problems with them, other than the fact that they looked kinda strange to me in the beginning, but since he is the only uncut man I have ever had sex with I'm getting use to the others and there really is no difference.

 

Of course, I do think that his is the most beautiful one I have ever seen.

Makes no differance to me.....One of my regular boys is from Germany and is uncut...and I have been with a couple others that were uncut. As long as the guy is clean and healthy it makes no differance one way or another......one thing I did notice about the uncut guys..they seem to be easier to get off with a blowjob??? Wonder if the little extra skin has anything to do with that???

[4ormoresomes 18]

I prefer cut - Eric is, as well as all but two other guys we have been with. However, one of my favorites was an uncut black dude (my first black experience). It also helped that he was ~10" and would cum by the gallon (or so it seemed)! I agree with Connie that uncut guys seem to get off faster.

[lookin-4-sum 15]

i agree with teresa, my hubby is also uncut and i love it, there is just something sexy about but cut or uncut, once it is in use, its how they use it right/ lol, you dont see it anyway.

[MattLisa 15]

Uncut men seem to have a more sensitive head than cut... I've played with both (hubby is not cut) and enjoy both fairly equally. Sometimes the extra skin can make condoms a problem, but you can usually make it work pretty easily (they can tend to slip sometimes). I do like giving oral to uncut men though, they are more sensitve

[oceans 15]

I have noticed overtime that the few uncut men I ran into had a slight unpleasent smell to them, I am not sure if it is because moisture and sweat stay under the forskin or what. I had to ask each one of them to wash thoroughly before I would give them oral. As far as feeling while having intercourse I realy cant tell the difference. Cut to me looks much better, I love my hubby's it looks awesome, like a well crafted piece of art and it feels best in my mouth. I have to agree though uncut men are far more sensitive and had a problem with cumming way too soon.

[TNT 1,155]

Hmmmm, I don't know about other uncut men, but I have never had a problem with Ted cumming to soon...even our quickies last over two hours and then I usually have to let him know that its okay to cum. The man has excellent self control.

[PA_RACERS 17]

To be totally honest with you......I have never seen an uncut penis before. When my son was born we had a hard time deciding whether or not to have him circumsized. After research I learned that an uncut penis is much harder to keep clean and the men are more pron to urinary infection. I think that information has turned me against wanting to explore an uncut penis. I may be wrong about my information but I would have to think a long time before I would agree to suck an uncut penis.

[Corinne 16]

PA, don't worry. Unfortunately this is the one myth about an uncut penis that is so common in the US. They are neither harder to clean (well, maybe an extra 5 sec in the shower) and the study about more infections has been found to be flawed. So no problems here!

I have been with intact guys, and I have found that, especially when the guy is hung, the sex can be sometimes more enjoyable. There is less friction and more gliding due to the skin around the shaft being "movable"

Anyway, thanks for all your replies, I guess it is really not that big of a deal for most women.

[vegascouple4bifem 17]

Hi all, my very second post as a newbie. This is a really interesting topic, as it's a very cultural thing. My man is cut, and I've only been with one person who wasn't, and I'd have to say that uncut is very erotic, as they're more sensitive, but beyond that, sexually speaking, it really doesn't make a whole lot of difference to me, though I wish for my man's sake he wasn't cut, as I've heard the head gets desensitized, which is a shame. But as a woman, I don't really feel any difference except for oral, it's kinda nice to have the foreskin to play with!

I researched it for months when I had my two sons, and found it's simply done for the sake of being done. And in fact, after reading about it, am now opposed to circumcision, and am advising my two friends who are pregnant against it.

Don't know if anyone agrees or cares, but I happened to feel very passionate about this topic, so thought I'd throw in my two cents. Thanks!

[Stratecpl 19]

As far as my opinion goes, I am cut and that's that, been that way all my life. I really wouldn't want it put back, either!

 

Sensitive vs. insensitive?? Well, everyone needs to make their minds up here. It's all with preferences anyway. Some religions banned circumcision, so that may account for the lack of circumcised foreigners. But too sensitive equals less intercourse time before ejaculation.... insensitive equals LONGER intercourse time before ejaculation. I don't have a problem with cumming vs. not cumming, so maybe my insensitive head is plenty sensitive enough. Personally I opt for more intercourse time!!

 

Ron, Husband of Stratecpl

[M&B 21]

Well, my wife says cut is best. She loves the look and feel.

 

We spent a lot of time with another couple where we used to live. The husband was not cut. My better half had no problems with him, although, she always said she preferred mine.

 

Of course, my opinion on appearance is kinda moot since that's the way I've been all of my life.

 

As a nudist, it, you know, spends a lot of time "exposed to the elements". We hike in almost all kinds of weather, swim a lot. And, of course, we have a great sex life!!

 

Now, since I am cut and the head is so abused ;^>, I probably have lost a certain amount of sensitivity. I dunno! But, then again, with my wife's tender lovin' care and with the help of a few friends, I can't complain.

[Kail 16]

I'm an uncut male and I wanna sound in on this. I can't speak for the aesthetic preference of women, but I will say that I'm very grateful that my parents didn't have me circumcised. The best feelings during sex and related activities come from the foreskin. Also I've never had any infections, and keeping it clean takes 5 seconds in the shower, as someone said earlier.

[MelissaB 15]

Interesting topic, and in fact it relates to how we got started in swinging.

 

I always preferred circumcised. One of my teen boyfriends wasn't done and I thought it was gross. I had a son out of wedlock and had him circed but they didn't cut him back far enough and he looks funny; he's 7 now.

 

Once I had a boyfriend (circumcised)who was really well endowed. It was great to look at, but it hurt. One of my best friends married an Italian guy (Frank)who is also well endowed. She told me, but you can see the bulge anyway. Due to my experience I felt bad for her, but she indicated sex was wonderful, so I figured to each her own. Last summer dh and I were with them and it's a long story, but we ended up skinny dipping. That when I noticed that Frank is not circumcised.

 

Later I brought it up to my friend and started we wonder if the foreskin made a difference. She asked is I wanted to try it, we made a plan, and 2 weeks later we switched partners. I had the best sex ever with Frank. Dh satisfied my friend too, orally, he's good at that.

 

We want to have more children and now I'm a little on the fence about circumcision. But, I think I'd have it done because it's only the really big ones that need the extra skin. Dh is average but has a very neat circumcision. The doctor that did him is still in practice, so I would use him instead of the dork that did my son.

[mk7124 15]

Well I am not circumcised and I have never had a urinary tract infection. It is one of those myths perpetuated by American physicians. Just an easy way to make more money. Circumcision is a totally useless procedure that has its roots in religion. It is mutilation of the male genitals.

 

Furthermore, I do believe men with their foreskin intact to be more sensitive than their counterparts. That is a good thing. :p

 

As far as oceans comment about the "smell". We uncircumcised men do not smell worse than the circumcised ones. You (oceans) just ran into someone with poor hygiene. Our six year old has already been taught how to properly clean his penis. As a matter of fact, anyone engaged in swinging that does not take a shower or bath before meeting with the other couple(s) is a dirt bag.

[anne & vernon 15]

Funny how most of the women responding prefered what their hubby has. LOL I guess I'm in the same boat but then again I've only had him. My husband and our sons are uncut and none of them has ever had any type of urinary infections. I'm sure it's possible but I think it's been over exaggerated.(BTW Hubby has never had a bad taste either, just the opposite).

[Chris&Amelia 253]

Apparently, with the new software, you can only ask one poll question per message, so this is the second part of the survey...

 

Women: Do you prefer circumcised men, or men who aren't circumcised?

[NightGoddess 16]

.....mmmm visually and many other ways, uncut for sure!

 

It rocks! However, it's all about the guy

 

Who he is really makes all the difference in the world.

[Guest xerogirl]

My hubby is uncut but, he was the 1st uncut man I was ever with. At first I did not like it, he says his ex wife did not like it either. After seven years it has grown on me;) . I have one son who I had cut b 4 I know how useless the procedure was. I do not care what so ever for cut or uncut but, I do prefer at least 7 inches and thick:p If hubby and I ever have a son together there is no way in hell i'ld have him cut. As far as sex and lasting time I have not seen any difference at all!. I can't feel any difference either.

[SwtPixieDst 16]

Circumcised all the way! Down with the turtleneck!!! *laugh* Sorry uncut fellows. It just looks better to me.

[lcjtsd 20]

Cut only. I would never put my mouth on an un-cut penis. Just my preference. I think all that extra skin is gross.

[cntrycpl505 15]

Why would it be harder to clean a penis than a vagina which has more skin?

[HotCoupleGnS 21]

I have never seen an uncut penis. My hubby is cut, & we had both of our sons cut. I guess my prefence is cut b/c I love my hubby's penis. I love the way it looks & the way it feels. But I guess with a swinging partner it wouldn't matter much, as someone said earlier once it is in use! lol

[ALilOEverything 901]

I was with two guys who were uncut and I just couldn't believe how silky soft the head was. I'll give oral to any guy who's uncut and I even look forward to feeling it on my lips. There was a big difference in feel to me with one that is uncut and one that has been cut and chaffed for years and years. I noticed when he got an erection the extra skin didn't seem like so much extra. I circ'd my first out of ignorance but I left my second two boys intact so they can later make their own decision. I don't think it's that big of a deal to have it done later on...if us women can birth the babies than the guys can later go through a little circumcision if they wish. That's just my opinion. My husband is cut and that's fine with me too.

[seasex28 15]

Don't do it. It's unneeded surgery. Women have always loved my cock...uncut--100% intact.

[TxCouple98 15]

Uncut for me!!

 

might sound odd...but hey you get a lil something extra to play with when giving him oral.....lol...

[crestviewcpl2 15]

ex husband wasn't circumcised and couldn't last worth a darn. I timed him once and it was 2 min 48 sec. I've had other uncircumcised lovers and they did fine but sometimes I think some of the men SHOULD be circumcised if its the lack of sensitivity that helps them last awhile. Of course I'd be willing to do his circumcision myself but that's another thread.

 

My SO is circumcised and I like it better for me but really I'm not totally biased against not circumcising unless it interferes with sexual pleasure for both.

[sensuality 2]

All of the guys I've slept with except for 1...weren't circumcised.I prefer it that way.Once a guy gets hard, it really doesn't matter much.As for the hygiene issue?Yeah,some guys need a lesson in that area...but other than that...it's awesome.I would never put my child through that either.I firmly believe babies retain memories in their subconscious and that is some pain...doctors don't even put them to sleep So, uncircumcised all the way for me

[Alura 2,774]

Mrs. Alura and I are both uncut and so are our sons. Although we both feel the procedure should not be done, it makes no difference to her with swinging partners.

[ChloeandHubby 15]

Giving a cut cock a bj is much much better than uncut. Smmoth and hard under the lips - way more attractive too look at....my son is cicrumsized like his dad (so no worries about about looking "different") and we prefer cirucmsizion from a hygienic point. Just my opinion facelick

[lauriern 16]

I lived in Europe for a couple of years and got used to uncut cock. There weren't very many Americans in the area of Germany where we lived, so I was kind of a novelty in the clubs. Many fond memories.

[PotentialSwnger 15]

I have seen SEVERAL penis' in my lifetime... but have yet to see or come in

contact with an adult uncircumcised penis. All that I've had or come in contact with were cut!

 

I seen one in a porn once but that's it.

 

My sister in law told me her ex boyfriend (who she is still great friends with) was uncut and she was about to perform oral on him and had to make him take a shower b/c there was a pus looking substance in the extra skin. YUCK... I understand that could've very well been HIS hygiene... but still it grosses me out to think what could be hiding under that extra skin...lol.. sorry...and no offense to any uncut men.

Ew! OMG, that's just sick. I wouldn't let that thing near me even after a shower! That can't be "normal"!

 

I just recently had my first "Uncut" penis.

 

I admit, I was a little apprehensive about giving him oral at first, but his penis turned out to be very clean and very yummy.

I had to go back for seconds and thirds!

[850couple 16]

The wife says she got turned off by uncut when she was going to nursing school, her opinion is that alot of the men who are uncircumsized dont pay attention to personal hygene like they should......Adds that a half hard uncut dick makes a sexy still picture.

[menher1559 17]

Well here goes. To be or not to be. I am not cut and for years as child I was so concerned about the fact that my penis was different from most of the guys I was hanging with. Especially when I hit my teenage years I was involved with a lot of sports and of course you know the shower scene. I took a lot of extra time to conceal myself in the shower to prevent anyone else from seeing me. Must have worked because I never got any comments.

 

Now here is the interesting part. Even though I'm uncut, my penis has the appearance of one that is cut. My foreskin is completely retractable and for the most part stays that way. My wife describes it as uncut but peeled. It gives her the best of both worlds so to speak. With an erection my penis looks like it has been completely circumcised. When I receive oral it is so wonderful when my wife pulls the foreskin up and runs her tongue around the head inside of the skin, but the minute she lets go, the skin returns back down to the shaft.

 

Okay, the twist. AS a bisexual male, when we entertain single men, I prefer the uncut version. I tend to agree with other posters that some men don't take the time to clean properly and that sometimes the odor is a bit overwhelming. So remember guys if you're not cut, peel that thing back and give it a good bath, and you'll get a lot more consideration from couples.

[9167jay 15]

I'm uncut, and my wife loves it.

That attitude always astounds me. How can you measure such a thing? It is like pain threshold. Each individual is different. What may be intensely painful to one person might be only moderate discomfort for another. The same I would expect holds true for sensitivity. You could argue that the same individual might be more or less sensitive pre/post circumcision but only someone who had the procedure done as an adult is really in a position to comment and then only for their own personal experience.

 

When it was time to decide about circumcising our son we did a lot of research and found that there are individuals, circumcised as adults, for both sides (more/less sensitive after the procedure). To make a broad statement like the above strikes me as an overgeneralization.

[Dynamar 246]

Have had both and can't say I have a preference. The one lover who was uncut... when he was hard you couldn't tell the difference between him and an uncut guy. And it goes without saying, cleanliness is next to godliness when speaking of uncut penii!

[forty_somethin 15]

I think uncut ones are more fun to play with.

[RnR 15]

I too am uncut, and my wife also loves it that way.

Actually, it's quite normal, Ves. I have no idea what the anatomical purpose of "smegma" might be but it forms under the foreskin. It is a white substance but not very liquid. I wouldn't say it looks like pus.

 

All cockheads excrete smegma. (Come to think of it, this may not be true if it is secreted by the foreskin rather than the head...) On regularly-washed and cut penises, it has no chance to build up so there's not enough to notice.

 

I only remember having smegma develop noticeably a few times. One that comes to mind was when I was on a week-long round-up on a large New Mexico cattle ranch and the other was during a ten-day trip from Tehran to Bamiyan with very little water to spare for cleanliness.

 

It's quite easy to rinse away and a little soap bans it for some time. A quarter of a cup of water every couple of days kept me from feeling uncomfortable. (I wasn't having sex at the time so I didn't need to worry about how it tasted to anyone. It that's a worry, I'd suggest increasing the amount of soap and water.) No man with a foreskin and daily showers should ever have it develop, in my opinion.

 

I just asked Mrs. Alura about her preference. Although she likes the ease of entry of a uncircumcised penis, she has no preference, (cannot tell the difference between cut and uncut during intercourse). She says further that she's never tasted anything "weird" (such as smegma) on mine and she likes the taste of my cock better than the taste of soap.

 

Should I feel complimented???

[cjlondonuk 15]

Well if you'll excuse the dreadful pun, it cuts both ways. The cleanliness issue isn't just confined to us 'uncut' chaps - one girl I once went down on smelt of stale urine

 

At the end of the day it's down to personal hygiene, and that's something I'm quite fastidious about. Just because you've had a bad experience with an uncut male doesn't mean we're all like that - just as I know that all women will not smell of stale pee!

[txduo2000 18]

My hubby is uncut, but I put that I couldn't care less. They all work the same way, so it doesn't really matter to me.

 

BUT, my hubby's was the first uncut one I had ever seen, so it was a shocker at first !!! LOL And it was very strange, and something I had to get used to.

 

But I am now, so I have no bias one way or the other. I have had both. I prefer the look of a circumsized penis, and if I had had a boy I probably would have had him circumsized. My husband has four boys and they were all circumsized. I think he would prefer to be cut, but it's a serious surgery on a man, so since it causes no problems, then it's not something we will pursue.

 

Oh, and it has EVERYTHING in the world to do with personal hygiene as far as the cleanliness goes. My husband has NEVER had smegma build-up, and he is VERY attentive to making sure he is VERY clean at all times.

 

Cut, uncut, who cares ... as long as it works!!!

[FRIENDS1ST 15]

My dear friend .. I am uncut and I got the same thing too ... I can pull it all the way back to the end of the head ...but here is the interesting part about mine ... it does not slide back until my penis softens. Its almost as if the back of the head acts as a "hook" to hold it back ..lol..."hook" .. hahaha .. I feel funny saying that too. Well I thought I might share that with you ...maybe your wife can pull it all the way back behind the head ... although please dont do anything that hurts.

 

I am curious ... does the foreskin not slide back completely (as in go behind the head) for all uncut guys? When I do it ...the head is completely exposed!!

[jennandjamesinm 87]

Ok Ya'll forgive me for being the crass one here, but who cares? As long as it's clean and hard and gets the job done - I don't care if its cut or uncut...

ok I know that everyone has their own opinion here which is why I love this forum Surrender But I have to say that the comment seemed a little harsh to all the men who are uncut, I personally have never been with an uncut man Not that I would find it gross just never had the opportunity, Husband and I have 2 sons our first is cut our second is not our reason for not doing the second had nothing to do with religion just lack of funds at the time. I however feel bad for our youngest that is uncut because people are so narrow minded today, I would hate for my son to grow up to be a wonderful productive and loving man to have his heart stomped on by someone just cause he was uncut. There is my two cents

[txduo2000 18]

I agree with you wholeheartedly curiousinoregon.

 

Mine is one who is uncut. First uncut I have ever seen, been with and only one in my life. But I love it!

 

Yeah, I thought it was yuk at the beginning, but it's just a little extra skin. No more disgusting than the extra skin around boobs that aren't as perky as they used to be. No more disgusting than a little extra pudge around the middle.

 

As long as it's clean, it's perfectly fine. I like to play with my husband's extra skin while giving him bj's. He doesn't really get anything out of it, but I like it.

[WoodyInSoCal 15]

For those of you who swing bareback, please consider this:

 

The French and South African AIDS researchers are conducting clinical studies on the effectiveness of circumcision as a means of slowing the spread of AIDS in Africa.

 

There seems to be some evidence that the undersurface of the foreskin absorbs virus more readily than other skin tissue. This study was started because of empirical evidence in an area of Africa where one side of the valley was inhabited by a Jewish community (circumcised) and the other side of the valley by a community of another faith that didn't circumcise. The initial evidence shows that the uncircumcised males had a higher rate of HIV infection (and also their mates).

 

Barring any cultural differences between the two communities - which there may be - it would suggest circumcised males are less likely to contract the disease.

 

The clinical study is now being conducted in which the HIV/AIDS free uncircumcised males who volunteered to be part of the study were randomly chosen to be circumcised or not (50/50 ratio). They will be monitored for the next few years (I can't remember how long) and then the results will be published.

 

(I was about to post this but thought I would check the net to see what other info was out there. What I discovered is very important! Please read this article published by the Wall Street Journal:

 

Study Says Circumcision Reduces AIDS Risk by 70%: Findings From South Africa May Offer Powerful Way To Cut HIV Transmission

 

It says in part:

Quote

In a potentially major breakthrough in the campaign against AIDS, French and South African researchers have apparently found that male circumcision reduces by about 70% the risk that men will contract HIV through intercourse with infected women.

 

Other than abstinence and safer sex, almost nothing has been proved to reduce the sexual spread of HIV, the virus that causes AIDS. World-wide, the major route of HIV transmission for many years has been heterosexual sex.

 

Vaccine developers have said they would consider an AIDS vaccine with just 30% efficacy useful. But so far, no effective vaccine against the disease has been developed, leaving AIDS workers desperate for another tool to help them stem the tide of new infections, estimated at almost five million last year.

 

The circumcision findings were so dramatic that the data and safety monitoring board overseeing the research halted the study in February, about nine months before it would have been completed, on the grounds that it would be immoral to proceed without offering the uncircumcised control group the opportunity to undergo the procedure. While men were directly protected from infection by circumcision, women could benefit indirectly because circumcision would reduce the chances their partners would be HIV-positive.

....

 

If you are interested in doing your own search on the net, I used Google and typed in "uncircumcised AIDS". I got about 41,500 results and the first page of references were pretty convincing.

 

For those of you who hook up with uncircumcised men please consider engaging in protected sex with them as a precaution.

[Jamie&Kieth 36]

As long as it clean, gets hard & blasts off ... I don't care
