Many gay guys across the USA are circumcised. Whether that’s for religious reasons or cultural norms, the US is one of those countries where rates of circumcision are relatively high.
Although circumcision rates are declining slighting – latest data indicates 58% of newborn males are being circumcised – you’re still less likely to encounter an uncut cock when you’re hooking up or cruising for some fun.
We generally don’t get any say in whether or not we’re circumcised and some guys do experience negative physical and psychological consequences from the procedure.
Which brings us to foreskin stretching.
Have you considered foreskin stretching as a way to try and reverse your circumcision and restore your foreskin?
What’s the Appeal of a Cut Cock That Makes Circumcision Popular in the First Place?
A very small number of men develop a medical condition known as phimosis – which we discussed in our last foreskin stretching article for uncut guys. This is a tightening of the penis that makes it difficult for the foreskin to retract. This condition can cause pain and discomfort. There’s a range of ways that phimosis can be treated – the most extreme of these is circumcision, removing the foreskin.
Phimosis is pretty much the only medical reason that a foreskin needs to be removed. To quantify how many men that impacts, less than 1% of men will develop phimosis and only a small percentage of those will require circumcision. It’s pretty rare. If you are experiencing discomfort because of foreskin tightness, talk to a medical professional about it to explore your treatment options.
The main reason that people circumcise their sons is for religious reasons. Both Judaism and Islam have a tradition of circumcision.
Cultural norms are the other reason that people choose to circumcise their sons. In countries such as the US and South Korea, it became just something that everyone did, for no particular reason.
There are some downsides to circumcision – a study of around 1,300 men found that foreskin removal created lower sexual pleasure and orgasm intensity, along with increased effort required to achieve orgasm. Reduced sensitivity is not ideal during a hot horny gay hookup or gay park cruising hookup when you’re feeling pressure to both try and cum at the same time.
While desensitisation could potentially make you an excellent bator and gooner – allowing for prolonged edging – you don’t need to be circumcised to experience that.
Can the Foreskin Grow Back After Circumcision?
Circumcision is a permanent procedure – once your foreskin has been removed then it doesn’t grow back.
However, skin is relatively pliable and can be stretched – which is why foreskin stretching is an option that guys often explore when seeking to “restore” their foreskin.
Foreskin stretching attempts to increase the length of the skin that remains on the shaft of the penis.
How Should I Use a Foreskin Stretcher?
Foreskin stretching involves applying gentle, consistent tension to the foreskin. It’s not an exact science but you should expect to commit to at least a year of consistency and patience before you can expect to see any results.
You can buy foreskin stretchers from online retailers – they’ll often be marketed as phimosis treatments.
If you’re interested in exploring foreskin stretching, you may need to try a few different devices to find something that works for you. Follow the instructions provided. You can expect to feel some discomfort but it shouldn’t be painful.
What other options are there apart from foreskin stretchers?
If foreskin stretching doesn’t give you the results that you were hoping for, there’s a range of sex-toys that can help enhance your masturbation. Silicone sleeves such as a flesh-light can help create smooth sliding stimulation without irritating friction.
Opting for a high-quality lube is another way of minimising the negative impacts of circumcision. Silicone-based lube will give you maximum viscosity – ideal for extended bate sessions or hook-up encounters.
Using a natural moisturiser on a regular basis will also help protect the skin. Something such as cocoa-butter or shea-butter is an organic product that is readily absorbed by the skin and helps maintain moisture and sensitivity. Avoid low-cost commercial moisturisers – you don’t want to put anything toxic on your dick.
It’s also worth rethinking your underwear choices. What you’re looking to do is protect the head of the penis as much as possible – avoiding friction. Opting for soft briefs that cushion and support your penis will help protect your sensitivity more than loose cotton boxers where the cock-head is constantly rubbing and chafing against the fabric.
Ultimately, you need to learn to love the cock that you have. You are not defined by your dick. What your dick looks like doesn’t determine whether or not you’re an interesting person or whether or not you’re a quality hook-up. Whether or not you’ve got a foreskin doesn’t matter – what you do with your cock is what counts.
I am the youngest of 4 boys born in the 1960s and the only one that was not circumsized. When my brothers were born, it was done automatically before they went home. The year I was born the hospital had started asking parents and mine said no. Worked out for me, being the only one that is gay. It certainly has been appreciated over the years.
Wait! You mean you’re not calling them GAY foreskin stretchers?! LOL
This is not “stretching”. New skin actually grows under gentle prolonged tension. This is well known (and surgeons use it to regrow skin to cover amputations and the places where conjoined twins were separated). Foreskin restoration by tension can give remarkable results: it restores the sensitivity of the glans and the rolling action, but there are nerves in a from-birth foreskin that can never be replaced.
Devices to expand an existing foreskin to treat phimosis (both forceps-like and graded sets of silicone rings) are different from those to regrow a foreskin that was cut.
There are online communities where this is discussed. One of the best is https://foreskinrestoration.vbulletin.net
I am born on 1962 in Hong Kong, then is not common to circumsizes. However I am the youngest in the family, and when I was in my early teen, I keep having cold and one day my doctor tell me to drop the pants and he pulled my foreskin back and then my cold is gone and never come back. I don’t have to do the painful surgery either. As I know most uncut cock men, they don’t know how to clean inside the foreskin and keep dirt. When they have sex becomes messy, if is not gay having sex with women can cause UTI. I always keep mine clean, so no issue for me. Even though I am uncut and also enjoy like a cut cock.
I’m uncut and when I was in my teens I noticed that most of my friends were circumcised. I felt like the odd one out and pulled my foreskin back all the time so that I fitted in with the others. I still have my foreskin back now and my foreskin is quite loose as a result. My first boyfriend was uncut and I remember him taking ages to cum compared ro me. I thought I was no good at giving head initially but he told me it felt great His cock didn’t taste very manly either. I’ve had more uncut guys over the years and prefer the taste and feel of an uncircumcised cock.
I’m in my thirties now, but in my early teen years, whenever I got an erection it was always painful and felt really tight like my foreskin wasn’t rolling back far enough for my knob to be fully exposed. But during my first 4 times having sex it was soo painful until during the 4th sexual encounter, whatever was holding let go and now my foreskin rolls back to expose my engorged knob.
