I am just an ordinary guy. As I get older, I better realize that I have changed. Not all of these changes have been for the better. I am restoring my life to regain some of what I have lost from these changes. That means all the things I recognize that are not as they should be, I am working on changing. I am restoring myself physically and mentally.
One thing that has affected me is my infant circumcision. As I got older, I noticed that my favorite body part was not what it used to be. I was circumcised at birth and I do not like it. I dislike it so much that I am restoring my foreskin. WOW! What a difference a foreskin makes.
Many guys do not realize how circumcision harmed them. By the time I was in my 40s, I could tell that there was a big loss in sexual pleasure. By the time I hit my 50s, sex was no longer fun like it had been.
After restoring my foreskin I regained a lot of what I lost. I regained all my lost sensitivity. I also got the gliding action, something I never knew existed. The gliding action is GREAT!

Robert S. Van Howe of the Department of Pediatrics and Human Development, Michigan State University College of Human Medicine, reviews studies to determine the effects of male circumcision on various sexually transmitted diseases (STDs).
Chlamydia, gonorrhea, genital herpes, and human papillomavirus are not significantly impacted by circumcision. Intact men appear to be of greater risk for genital ulcerative disease while at lower risk for genital discharge syndrome, nonspecific urethritis, genital warts, and the overall risk of any sexually transmitted infection. In studies of general populations, there is no clear or consistent positive impact of circumcision on the risk of individual sexually transmitted infections. Consequently, the prevention of sexually transmitted infections cannot rationally be interpreted as a benefit of circumcision, and any policy of circumcision for the general population to prevent sexually transmitted infections is not supported by the evidence in the medical literature.
Genital Autonomy Canada: Attorneys for the Rights of the Child addresses the legal and human rights implications of non-consensual genital cutting in Canada
A letter to the Canadian Paediatric Society detailing the reasons male infant circumcision violates the child’s human rights. Teh open letter asks the CPS to “take a forward-looking approach to the boy-child’s human rights that is consistent with the growing worldwide opinion that parental proxy consent for non-therapeutic genital cutting of non-consenting minor males lacks justification in human rights, medical ethics, and the law.”
A video interview of Midwife Mary Cronk M.B.E. She tells of her experiences as a midwife from the mid nineteen fifties when male circumcision was much more common in the United Kingdom.

Ever wonder how you could encourage others to think about their circumcision and consider restoring? Well, here’s a handy card that Tally over at RestoringForeskin.org created to hand out of to leave in places where men will find them. I have left them in gyms, and bathrooms when I travel. Spread the word! — KOT!

Circumcision Diaries: Hurt egos, the collateral damage of circumcision
There is no way to discuss circumcision without someone getting hurt feelings. It may be the mother who cut her son. It may be the man who never thought about his circumcised penis. When circumcision harm is discussed, someone will not like it and take it like a personal attack or insult. This post addresses the impact of circumcision discussions on those who get upset by the discussion.
Chad tells of how he never thought of his circumcision until he was about to be a father of a son. He then wondered what his foreskin would have looked like if he had not been circumcised. He knew, absolutely, that his son was going to be born whole and remain that way. His son was going to remain intact with his whole penis. There was no need for a circumcision.

Anonymous asked: This is very interesting. When the the skin is warm though (from warm weather or sweating or what have you), what happens with the restored skin? Does it still tightly cover the glans or is it loose skin? Thanks for the info; I'm considering restoration, I wanted some tips on what the final result might be before I commit to doing it
It varies. For example, today was warm. When I got home from the gym, all hot and tired, I had to go to the bathroom. My restored foreskin had a tight pucker, so tight that my glans was pushed in toward my abdomen. Other times, for example when I get out of a hot shower, my pucker is not as tight and my foreskin seems slightly shorter. My restored foreskin hugs my glans, but it is not squeezing tight and I may have a bit of my glans exposed, whereas normally I have full coverage.
A wrote a blog about it: A tight restored foreskin pucker.
Other than immediately after tugging, my restored foreskin has never looked like a windsock. When I tug with a device, the skin is stretched out and does not hug my glans. Within an hour or so, my skin returns to normal and I have a snug fit.

As with most American women, I lived in fear of the foreskin. OK, “fear” is a bit intense since I didn’t even know that foreskin existed until college. I knew some men were circumcised and some were not, but up until I saw a photo of an uncircumcised penis, did I really understand what the word “circumcision” really meant. I never asked, I didn’t care, and because I had only had sex with one person at the time and he was circumcised, it was a non-issue…….
Great article. A woman tells how she came to appreciate a man who is intact, that is, not circumcised. She thinks giving a man handjob is fun and easy when he has a foreskin. She has never encountered a dirty man. She says, “foreskin is awesome!”
