Difference in sensitivity between circumcised and uncircumcised penises.

I wonder what I'm missing. Guess I'll never know... Thanks mom and dad!

Ugh, I know a guy who's gonna get his ~12 year old step son circumcised... I told him not to, but it's a religious thing and I can't push him on it cause he's my boss and I need my job more than I need his step son to live a happy life.

Those of you questioning these results, chances are you are misreading them. The legend at the bottom indicates the number of grams of pressure required to facilitate of response. Just because part of your penis "feels better" than another part doesn't directly relate to its ability to sense things more accurately. Different nerves induce different reactions, regardless of their actual sensitivity.

Confirmation bias up in here.

Wikipedia says "Circumcision does not appear to decrease the sensitivity of the penis, harm sexual function or reduce sexual satisfaction" and provides two references. I'm not saying I believe this, but I believe it more than a random picture.

I'm surprised the sensitivity of the head is the same for both. However, I can see how that might be the reality given that I can't finish just rubbing the head, or doing anything just to it really, it's not a clit... Got to work the shaft. It's bang on about the red section too.

If I am reading that right it is saying the head is not as sensitive as the shaft? I am not sure this is accurate. Where did this come from?

I have no idea how these things are tested, but from a personal point of view, the foreskin is the best place ever. You can easily cum just from stimulating that, especially if it happens with a tongue (and of course the visuals help too). I would be a very sad panda without it.

One of the thing circumcised guys dont understand is how much the foreskin can be used while masturbating. It gives you all sorts of tricks to do, I cant imagine what it would be like to not have it.

This seems inaccurate. The glans is more sensitive than the outer layer of the foreskin.

No offense but I call bs. No way the shaft is more sensitive than the head. (Personally speaking and intuitively)

On an unrelated note, what is the purpose of the foreskin if not for protection while not aroused, therefore why should it be more sensitive?
