I read this theory last night, and woke up a bit puffy eyed and excited to share it with you.

Overview

A new theory published in Archives of Sexual Behavior shows again that men and women aren’t that different. This theory explains the shape of the human penis and how it evolved to where it is now. In this explanation the foreskin as an important part of the penis and  it’s evolution.

So this study says that while the glans scoops vaginal secretions, the foreskin absorbs them. Now why would it do that? Well there were some studies awhile ago that proved that semen actually had psychological effects on women by releasing certain brain-chemicals, making them less depressed and more bonded to their partner. So, basically it works both ways. Like semen, vaginal secretions also have a psychological effect on dudes. Eurohormones are released that are associated with bonding and are thought to trigger protective behavior among males for their partners. So potentially by cutting the foreskin off, you cut off this natural sexual effect.

In the mainstream we have this idea that male sexuality is so simple where-as female sexuality is shrouded in mystery, you’ve got to push the right buttons and pull the right levers to unlock it. Of course, this is dismissive of guys sexuality and just not true. Biology shows that our sexual responses aren’t all that different.

To me, the the un-cut cock also shows this.

Seeing a foreskin, I feel like we don’t actually look that different from one and other “down there”.  There are all those lame  jokes about a woman’s smell, but if you know an un-cut man intimately you know that genital-smell is a human phenomenon, not a female one. Also we have lubrication and they have lubrication–the foreskin helps guys retain that moisture.

I was talking to a friend recently and she reminded me of when we were younger and she told me her boyfriend was uncut. My response was all “eww how do you deal with that?” I was talking shit when I had no idea what I was talking about, I’d never even seen an uncut cock.

But, I think that is a normal reaction for American girls. We aren’t used to seeing it, and the unfamiliar is easily dismissed. But it’s natural. It’s the way men were meant to be, the way we were made to have sex with men.

So, to 19 year old Rabbit I say, hey keep an open mind. Also, do your research about  foreskins, sex with foreskins and what circumcision does before you form an opinion. Think deeply about it before you speak.
