Foreskin

---

Okay hah, im 18... is it not normal to not have a "hoody" covering the head of the penis soft and erect? nothing hurts or anything at all and reading these forums makes it seem like im one without a flap of skin covering the head. when im erect i can't pull my skin up or anything

It sounds like you are circumcised. Circumcision is the surgical removal of the foreskin, and it is very commonly done soon after birth in the US, and sometimes elsewhere. It is done by Jews and Muslims as a religious rite, and in some other cultures it is done as a puberty rite.

I'm circumsized and don't have a "hood" anywere down there lol. Even flaccid I have just a fleshy sorta ring around the mid/end of my penis.Maybe he is not circumsized and his foreskin, when flaccid, covers much of his penis and when erect it becomes quite tight?

hmmmm haha i don't recall being circumsized, my family is not jewish or muslim, i don't have any skin covering the head... ever (even if it is soft) unless I push the head in when it is soft, but thats kind of like pushing it in not really putting skin over it. If by a fleshy ring you mean a color change on the middle of the shaft i have that... like bottom is lighter than the mid to top.

You are circumcised. I don't think you would recall it being done since it's done shortly after birth.

it's not just for Jewish or Muslim males, I myself am Christian and am circumsized. Circumsision is popular in North America but rates are falling as more people consider it sexual cruelty. I personally don't see whats so cruel about it, I'd much rather be circumsized then have some nasty foreskin hanging off my rod all day long!

Yeah, being the way nature intended is nasty. What an idiotic comment.

You speak out of ignorance- a foreskin doesn't hang off the end of a penis, and if you don't have one, you have no idea what you are missing out on.

I used bad wording - I should have said "it is also done by Jews and Muslims as a religious rite". I was trying to cover all possibilities.

so i s'pose i'm an idiot for prefering a cut schlong eh? meh whatever floats your boat bud, i know every chick i talked to prefers em cut... and i know foreskin doesn't literally hang off the penis i'm just being crude and vulgar to get a rise out of you guys har har it worked too

Yeah, you're definitely circumcised, cumeater. You don't remember it because you were probably circumcised as an infant, shortly after birth. That's when its usually done, as it was with me too. You don't have to be Jewish or Muslim to be circumcised. In the U.S., most boys are circumcised for cultural/social reasons (just because everyone else is doing it type thing), not religious reasons. I'm circumcised, but I wish I wasn't. My opinion is that circumcision shouldn't be done unless there is an absolute medical necessity, which is very rare.

Having a personal preference is fine. Being crude and vulgar is childish. Congratulations.

obviously not a place for people who happen to enjoy some crude humor every now and again

To say that someone is nasty is not humorous.

its not really funny but offensive to uncut people.

gotta stop taking stuff so seriously, gosh i'm amoung a buncha commie vulcans here...

you shoudn't talk about vulcans that way, some of us don't appreciate it

why are ya arguing about foreskins!?!?! lol

i really dont care wut you cut guys say. Being uncut it awsome, read up on it and you will slap your parents for doing so.

I love my parents though. :smirk:
