>>Good luck - and don't let anyone bring a knife toward your penis. Remember the foreskin is an integral functioning part of a complete penis. It's not just a wrapper or a protector, just as your lips are a part of your mouth rather than just a protector.
>Good advice but the conclusion needs to be challenged. There is nothing to suggest that the foreskin is anything more than a wrapper! It should get out of the way when the penis is being used for sex. Often it does. The ideal uncircumcised penis would have the foreskin remain locked behind the glans on erection, a mechanism made easy by the corona. That helps create better contact and friction with the vagina. Men circumcised in adulthood are the best able to answer the question of preputial utility and with few exceptions, the answers indicate that it serves no real purpose and indeed, decreases the pleasures of vaginal intercourse. The fact that it has nerve endings that provide some pleasure does not indicate that it is needed as an essential part for the best in penile pleasure. It is really a drawback! A circumcised penis is not a second class (?hand) tool.
These claims of yours are simply nonsense. There is ample documentation and millions of years experience showing that the foreskin is an important functional part of the penis in sexual activity. The circumcised penis may be capable of allowing reproduction, but that is not the same as being the complete package required. I notice that you only mention penile pleasure. On the one hand, that is absurd because you are eliminating a very large proportion of the sexual nerve endings of the penis. On the other hand, you have no regard for vaginal pleasure: that's probably fine for you, but for men who enjoy sharing pleasure with women, the fact that the intact penis is far superior, as confirmed by the vast majority of women in a position to make a fair comparison, is a very important consideration.
