From ABC News, Sex is equally satisfying with or without all the parts - Page 2

[phrogger]

I know each man is different and their techniques are all different, but not that I want to admit it, but I have been with a few of each and I would much rather be with an intact man then a cut one. I guess I did my own study and intact wins.

And the whole HIV thing is so stupid. Wear a condom, DUH.

[mntnmom]

Of course a woman who has never been with an intact man will say sex with her circ'd partner is fine, whether it is or not. And vice versa! Luckily I married the guy with a foreskin after other experiences, and I can definitely tell you there is a difference!!
And likewise, a man who has not had both experiences is not equipped to speak to the difference. I am glad that the majority of circ'd guys are happy with their sex lives... but saying there is no difference is just ignorant!

It is very important to remember that we have very little heterosexual sexual contact transmission of HIV in the United States. EVEN IF cutting off part of the penis helped with hetero transmission, it is not going to affect anal acquisition of the disease which is the problem here in the US. Now if we could cut the whole penis off, that might be helpful.

im a little hurt at that. ive been interested in labiaplasty for years; i'm 19 now.

i remember when i was little, and i was proud of my body. i remember thinking my vulva looked like a pear when i looked in the mirror, and i liked that. as i grew older, my inner labia got thicker and grew longer, maybe from too much masturbation? i don't know. but i know i'm not comfortable in my body because of it. to be honest, i think i look gross. i'm also pretty sure i wouldn't lose any sexual stimulation with the removal of extra labia skin, because that's not what i get most of my pleasure from.

I kinda winced at that comment, too. (episiotomy after DD1, tear with DD2 that healed open, pelvic prolapse-- yep, I've thought about different surgeries on my privates, mostly bc of vanity) Btw, growth of the labia has nothing to do with masturbation! It's all hormonal!

But I DO understand where pp's coming from...

Labial skin is nothing like foreskin. Foreskin is a double fold of skin, including a folded network of nerves, blood vessels-- like brant31 said. Labial skin IS a flap of skin, lol (oh, I know how that sounds in this forum "just a flap of skin")... it really ISN'T a "player" in the role of female stimulation.

Any cosmetic surgery should be carefully thought out and planned by the person the surgery is happening TO

And surgery on the genitals of an unconsenting person is a whole 'nother ball o wax.

i'm sorry to hear you feel the way you do about your genitals. i haven't researched it, but having birthed three children vaginally, i imagine all that extra skin is there so that when the baby comes down & out, there's something to stretch. it is your body, however, so if you want to have something done about it, you can make that decision for yourself. RIC does not give the individual the choice - it is made by others which is a human rights violation .

i personally have a problem w/ those who perform these procedures because now not only are our breasts not perfect, but our genitals aren't either. seems like the rest of the world has perfect bodies but those of us in western society don't.

i hope you stick around!
