Does circumcision harm your sex life?

Does circumcision harm your sex life? This question has become more pressing than ever with the recent endorsement by the World Health Organization of circumcision as a means of reducing HIV infection in Africa (New Scientist, 31 March, p 7). But as two new studies show, it's proving tricky to resolve.
Kimberley Payne of the Riverside Professional Centre in Ottawa, Canada, and her colleagues tested the sensitivity of 20 intact and 20 circumcised men's penises as they watched erotic movie clips, by touching the penises with filaments that press down with predetermined amounts of pressure (The Journal of Sexual Medicine, DOI: 10.1111/j.1743-6109.2007.00471.x). They found no difference in penile sensation between circumcised and uncircumcised men.
However, when Robert Van Howe of Michigan State University used a similar method to measure sensitivity at 19 points along the penises of 163 men, he found that the five most sensitive points were all in portions of the ***** removed by circumcision, especially those in folds exposed as the ***** becomes erect (BJU International, vol 99, p 864).
Van Howe says Payne's team might have had similar results if they had tested more men and made measurements at more than two points. He denied that funding by the National Organization of Circumcision Information Resource Centers, which opposes circumcision, influenced the result. "It would be hard to fake," he says. He hopes other groups will try to replicate the findings.
From issue 2601 of New Scientist magazine, 26 April 2007, page 17 |
An uncovered ***** becomes more sensitive to any contact which leads to an earlier ejaculation. Circumsised men come faster than non circomcised ones.
That is in fact a problematic issue in a couple's sex life.
But in any case, I heard that any uncut man, whatever he did, his ***** will just smell sometimes, the hygiene factor is indeed a big issue and for some it is somehow an embarrassing matter.
I also read that a grown man did get cut for hygiene reasons and decided to circumsise his baby boys too for saving them the psycological issues he had to face when growing up, among them sarcasm, jokes about his organ and bad funky smells.
