Going by your post on the other forum, you indicated you have no
problem with phimosis. Care to explain what is actually happening?

Please do explain what the infections were and by what they were
caused. If you have researched this as you claim, you will have noted
that most infections are due to Candida Albicans and are readily
treated the moment any irritation occurs with standard antifungals
such as Canesten or Daktarin.

Suspect you are in America and they were both surgeons who would
profit from performing such a procedure. The nature of surgeons is to
cut.

Your pick. Many claims either way. My opinion is that the foreskin is
there to keep lubrication in the vagina as far as possible - the
gliding mechanism . Since the main complaint of women is becoming
dry during intercourse, this seems to me a substantial advantage.

And of course the obvious - is not your foreskin sensitive? Why would
chopping it off not cause you to feel less?

Well, since it only comes up to size when erect, if you (can) retract
when erect, there is no reason whatever to expect it to alter in size.
And it is mostly held that the desirability of a large penis, head or
whichever, is a predominantly male fantasy. Many people don't
understand that the vagina really has very poor sensation and the
clitoris is far more important. ("G-spot" discussion left aside.)
