Im not Jewish. I was circumcised when I was 17 because I had never been able to pull the skin back. The piece of skin that connects the foreskin to the glans( called 'fremulem' or something which is supposed to be elasticy) was too tight. So I had it done and man the friction was eye watering for the first week but once healed I dont notice anymore.
But after my first attempt at changing the dressing on it, standing over the toilet with blood dripping from the wounds..... I was quite upset!

:thumbs:

That's what I had. Phimosis. I think mine took longer to heal (I can't really remember, I've kinda banished it from my memory). I couldn't wear trousers for a week.

Also, they wouldn't let me out of the hospital for quite a bit because it kept bleeding. And there's a slightly minging story to go along with that. Highlight to read:

When it was bleeding, a (male) nurse was checking it out. I pulled back what was left of my fragile member for him to get a closer look. He looked and then I let go of the skin. Then I looked at his face and he had a streak of blood down it face and over his top. When I had let go, my skin flicked bad and I accidently sprayed him with penis blood. Whoops.

He was fine about it though, he just said "You got me there!". Ha. He left shortly after that, so I think you're allowed to go home early if you work in a hospital and you get sprayed with blood.

omg, just what these nurses have to put up with! If I was working in a hospital and that happend to me I'd just freak.
 
I was talkng about this today with my friends, it just came up somehow dont remember, and well 2 out of 4 were. And this girl, who has seen it both ways, said that uncircumsized looked wierd, and she perferred us cirumsized men.
 
I had to look it up on google...I guess I am, and I am not jewish....an uncircumcised penis looks wierd(I looked it up on a google image search...I had to know) with that skin thing...how do you rub your helmet? Hmm...so many things...

The foreskin retracts. That's the point.

Isn't it the other way around? It doesn't retract, it just gets left behind....
 
I'm circumcised, and I'm not Jewish. I had it done when I was born, I never asked why though.

Not circumcised, and glad of it. If it wasn't for the foreskin, my piss would go all over the place. I could hold the piss in so it only trickles out, but it is not advisable when you have a full bladder

I think you are under a few misconceptions about what the foreskin does. It doesn't direct urine.

When an uncircumcised guy gets an erection, the foreskin retracts, revealing the head of the penis.

Holy crap... thats insane...
This lil flap of skin is sounding more and more complex :-/
 
You don't know how the forewkin works? When you're born with it, you must be taught what was the purpose of it. :hmph:

I don't think it does. Mine is very sensitive, as in I can handle about 3-5 seconds of
stimulation
on the head before it feels like it's too much.

I also don't think that the removal of the foreskin reduces the overall sensation you'll get from sex. The "scar" that's left from the removed foreskin is more sensitive than the surrounding skin, at least for me.

::looks around; pulls it out:: I don't see a scar :-/
Wheres it supposed to be at?
 
I'm glad I had my foreskin cut. I've never had to deal with the unforunate substance of smegma that can build up if left uncircumcized.

Neither am I and I'm uncircumcized.

It should look like a dark-ish ring of skin just beneath the head.

Key word is "can". It's just one of those small possibilities that doesn't apply to me. :)

Of course, nobody should ever have to worry about it, so long as they, god forbid, clean themselves regularly.

It's fine if you just clean it. A bit any part of your body, really.

I don't think you quite understood what I said, when an uncirumcised penis erects the foreskin just sits there and the head pops out, not the foreskin draws back into something....

What the hell is smegma?
 
In space, nobody can hear you smeg.

I love the way Red Dwarf made such a word, so popular among children for that time :D


Smegma is ony bad if you let it build up, otherwise its just the lubricant that keeps the skin from chaffing.
 
Does Circumcision make your penis smaller? Perhaps there is not as much flesh that will fill up with blood? Those are appropriate questions I think.

Maxim magazine did a poll and the majority of women think Foreskin is gross lol.

It can only hurt to keep it, and so remove it at birth, but if it wasn't, then remove it only if it is necessary

quoting self for effect. I mean I haven't heard one good reason to keep the foreskin, only reasons to have it cut.
 
It just depends on ur culture/beliefs. I got curcumsized caz me=jew. But recent studies discredit the wives tale about non-curcumsized men getting diseases. It doesn't make much of a difference... Unless you plan on being a porn star, in which case you are usually required to.

When I look at my penis in the mirror, I want it to look its best.
