    I can’t believe circumcision is still practiced in some parts of the world.

      It’s brutal. I’m very lucky I wasn’t. Both my younger half brothers are.

    Been doing this on and off for years, definitely works but the process is slow. Especially when you aren’t consistent. I have thought about starting a community for it if anyone is interested.

    i know this is a thing, but i really don’t understand the why. like, is it an aesthetics thing? is it something done as a sort quiet protest against the practice of circumcision as a whole? something else?

      Circumcision is abuse. Only rarely is it a medically sane practice. The glans basically becomes calloused, why would anyone want that?

      Foreskin restoration is a way to return to a more normal state, with a softer and more sensitive glans. That is the reason people want to restore.

        I don’t know about other people but I go dry 99% of the time and it’s fine.

        Is that really a thing? I’ve been circumcised when I was young because of medical reasons, I’ve never needed lube for a wank.

        I’m circumcised and I’ve never needs lube to wank. circumcision is bad regardless, but I’m not sure that lubless wanking is a problem.

    Thanks, i got used to Not having One since having surgery for phimosis when I was little. Good to know there’s an option for people who want to have it restored. Options are always good:)

    What’s with the downvotes on the post and through the comments? Is lemmy more prudey than I thought or am I missing something here?

    source
    • chuckleslord@lemmy.world ⁨14⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

      I mean, it’s not really an accurate title. What was cut off can’t be restored. Sure, you can stretch the skin to be something like a foreskin, but it doesn’t have the nerve endings that were removed.

      source
      • 0ops@piefed.zip ⁨11⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

        It’s the commonly used term, op didn’t make it up for this post, that’s just what people call it. The wikipedia article he linked uses the term in the title. I personally learned about this at r/foreskinrestoration. Besides, who’s gonna downvote over semantics? My bet is still on prudes.

      The same people who genitally mutilate young boys, I’m guessing.

    Those penises look funny in their various apparatuses.

  • Deceptichum@quokk.au ⁨17⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

    And the thousands of nerve endings that provide a better experience, do they magically grow back as well or it just stretched skin?

    • Rolder@reddthat.com ⁨13⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

      Shit I already enjoy mine and you’re saying it could have been better?

      source
    • PlutoniumAcid@lemmy.world ⁨16⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

      Nerves don’t grow back, but the glans becomes more sensitive as the calloused skin heals.

    Husband restored his over the course of a year. Can confirm, it does work… to an extent. One caveat is that he has to wear a retainer day and night, as the stretched skin doesn’t cover the head unless pulled into place with the retainer.

      It will take a few more years but he will get there. Tell him I salute him for his perseverance!

  • Goretantath@lemmy.world ⁨18⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

    Do you still get the extra nerve endings that the original provided?

    source
    • irelephant@lemmy.dbzer0.com ⁨30⁩ ⁨minutes⁩ ago

      No, but you do regain a lot of sensitivity and your glans becomes less calloused.

      According to the Reddit threads at least. I still have the foreskin I was born with.
