Should every non circumzised penis stretch?

---

I have a non circumcised penis and i dont know if i should stretch it back, when i touch the inner knob is hurts. And under the skin there is like this fungus stuff that i dont know what it is, i dont know if its genitle herpes, it doesnt hurt, n im scared to have sex because i got no idea what it is.

Every guy who has an uncut penis needs to be able to retract the foreskin to expose the head...for cleaning purposes and for pleasureable sexual things. Not all of us need to stretch the foreskin for this to happen, but certainly some guys have a foreskin that is tight and doesn't move easily over the head and onto the shaft. The pain you're feeling is also common, when the head of our penis stays covered all of the time it can be really sensitive, almost painful to the touch. However, the more you expose it to touch and direct stimulation, the less sensitive it'll be. That "fungus" you're talking about is probalby smegma, a naturally occuring lubrication that is also very common. The cure for that is to retract the foreskin and clean under there every day (at least once) and that should take care of it. So, let us know if you need some help with stretching or if you have other questions about things. We'll be glad to help!

I dont think its smegma, Its not white and it isnt on the actual knob, its on the actual foreskin, on the non showing side. So any ideas on what to do? im scared it will really hurt if i try to pull it down, i have tryed n it did hurt but i didnt try hard.

Oh i forgot to say, it does expose but only a little bit

I have decided the uncut men are pussies. They always say it is very sensitive to touch and they always say, I am afraid it will hurt! You guys are girlie men! I stole that line from Gov, Schwartzennegger.

And I have decided that AverageJoe's true colors tend to slowly bleed out with his posts, showing his true character. His posts tend to typify the perception that rich spoiled snots living in Beverly Hills tend to be _______. Fill in the blank. Anything works.

Thanks again there Joe...now I'm a pussie? And you've become a real jerk....knock if off man. If you can't stop the attacks and all this bs stuff then go play in your sandbox or something. There's no need for this, why say anthing at all if you don't have something of value to add to a post?

Don't hate the player, hate the game!

Whatever. Go play with your toys.

Hi Coults: First of all: nomenclature. Terms are important, as they help define character and understanding. Don't take it personally, however, as use of improper terms is a common error in our disfunctional society. Read almost any post here and witness how easily and unquestioningly well-meaning people continue the tradition. In truth, there is no such thing as a "non-circumcised penis". That would be like perfectly healthy persons calling themselves "non-paralyzed", or characterizing themselves as being "a non-amputee". You, and all normal, natural fellows are more properly termed "intact" or whole. Those men and boys who have been genitally mutilated are termed "circumcised", a term often used to conceal real horror, pain, and loss. Speak of yourself proudly as "intact", as that is what you are.Your glans penis experiences "pain" because, evidently, you are rather young and your glans has never been exposed. Understand, also, that the line separating pain from pleasure is remarkably thin. So, begin to treat your highly-sensitive glans as though it IS highly sensitive. Never touch it with dry fingers, but when you must touch it, use a lubricant. The glans is meant to be "touched" only by the sopping wet mucous membrane of the vagina, so you need to attempt to duplicate those sensations when touching your glans, which, I assure you, will be pleasurable, not painful. With such use, over time, the sensation of pain will greatly diminish and you will experience pleasure, instead. According to your later posts, your foreskin doesn't yet retract properly. Had you been encouraged to regularly attempt retraction at a young age, the process might have been complete by now (guessing, as I am at your age). Not to worry. By employing simple stretching techniques and exercises, you can speed up the process.With your fingers, pull gently but firmly OUT, away from your body, inserting a finger or two inside the cavity thus made and stretching the opening outward, as though you were opening a cloth sack. Here is a photo demonstrating a similar 'stretch': http://www.foreskin.org/46-33-03.jpg Hold the stretch up to five minutes at a time, and repeat two-three times every day. Understand that you are not actually stretching the foreskin, you are encouraging new skin cell growth, which takes time. Depending upon the diameter of your foreskin opening, it might take you several weeks or several months, when you do the exercises every day.Finally, until we receive a more complete description of your "fungus stuff", I'd suggest that it could be either smegma, which is primarily dead skin cells combined with natural secretions, or "pearly penile papules". Click on sdp's link to "Anatomy" (Read first) on the second line of the foreskin page, and scroll down to read all about them. Penile papules are perfectly natural, and they are suspected as being part of the sensory makeup of the glans penis. If that's what you see on your glans, be thankful. They are aids to pleasure.Any other questions, please let us know, OK?Korydon

Well, Kristal, as you know, certain cultures, certain people, mutilate the genitals of both men and women, and they term both procedures as "circumcision". The procedure is accomplished largely in an attempt to establish control over the individual by the group. Although female genital mutilation is inflicted upon thousands of young girls in the United States every year (according the U.S. Department of Health), the procedure is frowned upon by the larger culture. Indeed, Congress has made FGM illegal. In large swatches of Africa, however, female genital mutilation is imposed upon young girls by the women of the tribes (though, of course, for the supposed benefit of the males). Although the Egyptian government outlawed FGM several years ago, the women of the country forced the government to reverse itself.You tell me: why do we in the west define female circumcision as genital mutilation, when the women who undergo the procedure believe it to be a salutary experience, and beneficial? What is the truth, and how does it differ from "relativism"? Is genital mutilation genital mutilation, or is it not?We are, supposedly, made in the image of God, whole and intact, and what God has put together, let no man pull asunder. In short, ya' call a spade a spade.Korydon

Jesus was cised.

In reply to: Speak of yourself proudly as "intact", as that is what you are. So...I should feel badly about myself? I would rather have been snipped at an infant, grown up being able to have sex, whenever i wanted, regardless of age, then have to spend time, trying to stimulate new cell growth in the manner of stretching that that picture shows.

ey korydon thanx for all the info, i really appreciate it

Thank you, coults, for not acting precipitously, and for having the smarts to ask questions first, thereby energizing the ironic nature of this site and its title: Afraid to Ask.Korydon

It's not a zero sum game. You can feel proud of yourself whether or not you're circumcised. But being curcumcised is a hanidicap in the sense that it diminishes physical sensation (at least a great deal of evidence points in that direction). Think of it as analogous to nerve damage in your arm. You may have reduced sensation to touch in the top of you hand, for instance, but it probably won't screw up your life. Think of it as a mild handicap.It is too bad that there's no easy way to reverse a circumcision, for those who would like to do so._______Why is circumcision mutiliation? Because you're doing a surgical procedure that's almost never medically necessary, and the result is a loss of functionality in the body (strength of sensation).

In reply to:I don't think any circumcised guy would say they have a mild handicap just because they are cut.How about the guy who posted about getting circumcised at age 14? Most people who are circumcised don't spend a lot of time thinking about the implications of their circumcision, just as most people didn't think about the health effects of smoking 50 years ago.If you don't like the phrase "mild handicap" to describe a diminution in sensation, find a word or phrase that you prefer.

they guy who got cut at 14, will get over it. If he doesn't he put way too much focus on his foreskin. It's not like he was involuntarily sent to fight in a war, like vietnam and had his legs blown off and had to live in a wheelchair on a shrimp boat for the rest of his days.

OFF TOPIC: Lieutenant Dan did get new legs.
