Why are men born with a foreskin?

I wish I wasn't circumcised as a baby. Its one of the many reasons I left Islam. Any religion or culture that thinks its okay to mutilate children should be called out as backward and they need to reform.

I was circumcised. And I know my parents didn't do it maliciously, but I still feel resentment towards them because of it.

Why indeed, there are fine touch mechanorecptors that are stimulated by vibration and pressure the main one's being Meissner's corpuscles and Pacinian corpuscles, there's others as well, take those away with circumcision and you lose quite a bit of sensativity and sensations. https://ezinearticles.com/?Penis-Mechanoreception---How-Your-Penis-Actually-Feels-the-Vagina&id=3559295

I (UK) was circumcised because I had phemosis. It was recommended I be circumcised. They promised to remove as little as they could, the first tine they asked my mun deferred to me for consent - I said no. The second time I felt pressured so said yes. At no point did they explain whst the foreskin was for.

After the surgery I was told by a doctor "we removed more than we said we would" and they left. I was devistated and traumatised by being lied to by the doctors and seeing my penis mutilated and stitched up. Horrific.

As an adult I know there was another way and they never wanted to try. I wish I could sue them for what they did to me. I want to make them hurt like they hurt me.

Do handjobs hurt less if you are uncircumcised? I needs tons of lube and then it feels amazing, but my gf always likes to grab my circumcised dick before lube and it just hurts

The problem is... why would I want to know what I'm missing out on?
