Male circumcision weakens the bonds between men and women, by making sex
between them less satisfying. The following statements made by men who were
circumcised as adults make the destructive and harmful nature of male
circumcision clear:
Wearing a condom or wearing a glove ... sight without color would be a
good analogy ... only being able to see in black and white ... rather than
seeing in full color would be like experiencing an orgasm with a foreskin and
without. There are feelings you’ll just never have without the foreskin.
(Paul Tardiff, circumcised at 30, NOCIRC Circumcision Video, by Marilyn Milos,
RN, and Sheila Curran, RN)
AND
My newly naked glans [after the operation] was protected from
irritation with bandages ... Slowly the area lost its sensitivity and as it did
I realized I had lost something rather vital. Stimuli that had previously
aroused ecstasy had relatively little effect ... The acute sensitivity never
returned. Something rather precious to a sensual hedonist had been lost forever
... My experience ... is ... that circumcision destroys a very joyful aspect of
the human experience for both males and females. (NOCIRC Newsletter)
AND
I did decide to get circumcised at age 28, mainly because I had heard
that it was much easier to keep clean ... I found that the negatives of
circumcision far outweighed the minor benefit of a slight improvement in
hygiene. I wound up being very sorry that I had become circumcised because of a
major loss of sexual enjoyment after the circumcision. I found that the loss of
my foreskin led to a drying out of the head of my penis and a resulting loss of
sensitivity ... But the biggest factor in the loss of sexual enjoyment was that
I no longer had a foreskin to massage the head of my penis during intercourse
and masturbation. I no longer had skin moving tightly back and forth across the
head of my penis, which had provided a great deal of pleasure previously. I
still consider the decision to get circumcised the biggest mistake in my life.
(R.P. [quoted], Tulsa, The Joy of Uncircumcising!, by Jim Bigelow, PhD,
Hourglass Book Publishing, 1995)
AND
My wife would chew on my foreskin. That would drive me out of my mind.
Now I think someone could chew the head off and I might not feel it. (Private
communication from a man circumcised in his early 30’s)

In some cases, the effects of male circumcision are downright painful,
such as for women when the man is circumcised. The following statements made by
women who have had sex with both natural and circumcised men make the
destructive and harmful nature of male circumcision clear:
There is a huge difference in sex with uncut [natural] and cut
[circumcised] men, and most women who’ve had both, prefer uncut. I’ll
never have another cut partner. My body can’t handle the rough painful sex
they need in order to finally squeeze out a cum, because most of the feeling
has been cut away, and they’ve been left dried out and insensitive. [a
guestbook comment by an Australian woman:

AND
Intercourse with a circumcised man and intercourse with an
uncircumcised man are two entirely different experiences. I can always tell
from the feeling alone whether or not a man is circumcised. Circumcised men
take longer to ejaculate. They have to work at it. (From a conversation with a
prostitute) [source]
AND
I became obsessed with the idea that my boyfriend should be
circumcised. We were very happy together, and much in common, and best of all
we were very compatible in bed. But I refused to get married until he was
circumcised—and he gave in.
That little operation completely destroyed our life together. Before
he had fabulous staying power, but after the operation he would have an orgasm
in five minutes and leave me high and dry. To make things worse, sex became
very painful to me. Twice I had to see a doctor due to minor infections from
the chafing. Our beautiful sexual togetherness became a nightmare of staying
creams, lubricants and frustrations.
He says he will never forgive me, and we no longer speak to each
other…but I cannot forget what a stupid mistake I made which altered the
life of a lovely person. (Carolyn LaRoc, letter to Playgirl, February 1975) [source]
AND
One of the keynotes of the book [Sex As Nature Intended It, by
Kristen O'Hara] is its unique survey of [American] women who have had the
comparative experience of sexual intercourse with both circumcised and
uncircumcised men. If you’re like the majority of women in the survey,
you’ve found intercourse with your “natural” partner a highly
rewarding experience—much more pleasurable than the intercourse you
experienced with circumcised men. …
The aforementioned survey of women—women who have had sexual
experience with both types of penises—unearthed many mind-boggling
revelations. Such as these:
- Women were more than 4 times likelier to achieve vaginal orgasm
when the man had a natural penis.
- Women experienced considerably more discomfort during intercourse
when the man had a circumcised penis.
- Premature ejaculation was significantly more common with
circumcised partners.
- Surveyed women overwhelmingly preferred sex with the natural penis
by a margin of 9 to 1.
One riveting aspect of the book is the author’s own tastefully
erotic, dynamic story about her “circumcised experiences” and her
discovery of the wonders of “natural sex.” [source]
AND
During my circumcised intercourses, I felt violated or used—like
I was just a piece of meat—even with my husband.
With my current natural partner, I feel warm, tender, soft, and
beautiful. But during circumcised intercourse, I would often get aggravated
emotionally. I have cried after many of my circumcised sexual
experiences—feeling so empty and not knowing why. I have never cried or
felt this way with a natural partner. [from the book Sex As Nature Intended
It, p. 22]
