>Someone has suggested that the male glans should have the type of senxitivity that most of the ladies have with their clits, in regard to many of them being unable to tolerate direct touch.
>In spite of their being parallels in genitals I am pleased to have the ability to tolerate skilled friction directly on my glans. This has been made easier by some exposure to air by wearing the foreskin back behind the glans.

H W, your point is well taken. Hypersensitivity of the glans has sometimes been put forward as a reason for premature orgasm, and considered a definite disadvantage. A strong opinion of mine is that really good sex comes from a man and a woman, who are different in their respective physical makeups, work together to reach a mutually satisfying climax. For a man to consider only his sensitivity without working wsith his lady toward a glorious finale is selfish and in the long run self-defeating. Your quotation of the Frenchman (who I think was a member of Parliament who woke up during another member's long-winded speech) reminds me of what another Frenchman, one of the wine-making Rothschilds, said to a lady who asked him, when they were engaged in horizontal recreation, "How do you feel, being a circumcised Jew?" His immediate response was, "Great! The hygiene is improved and the reduced sensitivity prolongs the pleasure of the embrace." Which is one man's opinion --you may or may not agree with it! Cheers, Bob.
