Does circumcision increase sex drive?

I think being circumcised has increased my sex drive. I'm 18 and got cut last year. Before I had slept with 12 girls but since I got circumcised I can't get enough. I'm at college and have slept with 34 girls since the summer and still need more.

I think it is circumcision that has increased the sex drive

    You are probably more self assured of yourself, I know I was and did every Betty I could!

    I was circumcised at 18, so been there and have the t-shirt! It was done in office and I was in and out in under an hour. No sports or sex for a month, but well worth it. There is no downside to being circumcised only an upside.I would do it again in a NY minute. It is cleaner (uncircumcised guys can clean 3x a day + and still have odor), it is healthier (uncircumcised guys are 60% more likely to acquire STD's and HIV during heterosexual intercourse), it looks better (no brainer) and sexually it is much better. There is no loss of sensitivity, that is only a scare tactic from the anti's. I can assure you, orgasms are much more intense when you are circumcised. There is nothing good about being uncut. It is a very easy and quick procedure as an infant and gives the child a lifetime of benefits. I had no hesitation to have my three boys (4,2 & NB) circumcised, because I know there is no downside just a big upside to being circumcised.

    Circumcision seems unnecessary. But then again so does a foreskin. I had it done when I was born and it doesn't seem to be an issue, except for the scar. It's not like I miss it or anything. I have no idea how a circumcision would make it bigger mind you, shouldn't it be smaller? Seems so. Anyway, if it causes nerve damage I would advocate it not being done. But a lower sex drive would lead to a more powerful bargaining position for men so that actually seems like a plus to me.

    Paradoxically, circumcision may be a factor in causing a man to desire intercourse more often. The following is a true story:

    A man who was circumcised in adulthood told me that he once masturbated about 25 times over a two-day period. His analysis of the situation was that he just couldn’t achieve the same level of satisfaction with circumcised masturbation that he had formerly experienced with his natural penis. After each orgasm, he still felt sexually unsatisfied. He then tried to relieve this dissatisfaction with more masturbation. After 25 times, he still felt sexually unsatisfied but he gave it a rest.

    When the foreskin is missing, sexual stimulation from intercourse, and even orgasm, can leave an incomplete message in the pleasure centers of the brain. The brain may then try to compensate for this incompleteness with an excessive desire for intercourse (and/or masturbatory) stimulation. In this way, the brain attempts to use quantity as a substitute for the quality that it isn’t receiving due to the foreskin’s absence.

    Circumcision dramatically modifies the structure of the penis and the layout of its erogenous zones. When the foreskin is surgically removed, all of the erogenous zones in the upper penis are affected by its elimination.

    Consider the impact of this loss for a moment:

    Gone are the numerous sensory receptors of the inner foreskin and ridged band, which come alive upon sexual arousal.

    Gone is the foreskin’s rolling and bunching-up action with its alternating pressure-pleasuring of the corona and coronal ridge.

    Gone (or significantly reduced) is the massaging actions of the glans on the internal clitoral tip.

    Gone is much or nearly all of the frenulum, which (according to many natural men I’ve spoken with) is the most erogenous tissue of the entire penis.

    Gone is the thin, moist, delicate layer of membrane on the penis head, which allows its nerves to fully experience the ecstasy of intercourse.

    These are major losses when you consider that just about all of the sexual receptivity of the natural penis takes place in these upper erogenous zones.

  • Usually being at college also increases your sex drive. Are you living with your parents? If not then I think it's college.

    No it does not. Surgery like that in no way effects hormone levels.

    Also you need to get yourself in for couciling for being a sex addict. Having that many sexual partners is never something brag about. If you have truly slept with that many people I say you have a problem with an addiction.

    Circumcision didn't increase your sex drive, you had a problem from the get go.

    Also studies have shown that circumcision takes away a ton of pleasure making sex less satisfying for circumcised men, so they need more sex and masturbation to be as content as an uncircumcised male.

    Your situation supports that. However I still think you need to be in couciling for your addiction. And go get tested.

    Circumcision doe not increase your sex drive. Maybe the exposed glans rubbing on your shorts gets you in the mood, but probably you are just normal for you. Over time, you may have ED issues because of circumcision.

    ok..first,in a research involving 200 experienced woman,86% said they prefered uncircumcised penis.the reason why u think it has increased ur sex drive because u have cut off ur important nerve endings.there for u wont know when to stop and tend to go deeper.it also makes for more difficult ejaculation.btw the glan needs to be protected by the foreskin.it isnt supposed to be exposed otherwise it will dry up and start to shed.imagine wearing an underwear.it will be...ouch o.o

    Circumcision is neural and vascular damage to the penis.

    Just wait until you've had about ten or fifteen years of keratinization, and your glans is about as sensitive as the heel of your foot.

    In later life, sensitivity has decreased enormously because of the damage and callousing of the glans and surrounding tissues.

    "No wonder adults who undergo circumcision report less-satisfying sex, reduced sensitivity and erectile function, difficulty with intromission and increased premature ejaculation." --from Nature Clinical Practice Urology

    You have yet to experience the full consequences of male genital mutilation, called circumcision.

    Circumcision is the worst hoax ever perpetrated on the male sex.

    A foreskin is not a birth defect; it is a birthright.
