Do uncut and cut penises feel different?

Q: What’s the difference between sex with a guy who’s cut vs. uncut? My current boyfriend is foreign and will be moving here within two weeks. It’ll be his first time overall — so naturally he’s terrified — and my first time with an uncut guy. Is it going to make a difference in how I feel or how he feels?

A: You will notice very little difference between a cut and uncut (circumcised and uncircumcised) male penis as far as you are concerned. The foreskin consists of the same skin that is on the head of the penis that folds over part or all of the head when the penis is flaccid (soft) or folds onto the side of the penis during erections. There are nerve endings in the foreskin that are also similar to the nerve endings elsewhere on the penis so this skin is sensitive and can be the source of added pleasure for the uncircumcised person.

The main difference has to do with hygiene as it relates to the uncircumcised penis needing more attention than the circumcised penis in cleaning and keeping the area clean. The area of skin around the head of the uncut penis can tend to have a stronger odor at times than the cut penis if the hygiene is lacking.

There are a few other things to know about the uncut penis such as some men prefer to have the foreskin pulled back prior to receiving oral sex and/or putting on a condom. Also, lube can be even more helpful on the uncircumcised penis, either with or without a condom, to reduce the amount of friction between the loose skin and the rest of the penis.
