    TBH no idea how the foreskin helps with jerking a fully erect penis. Do you pull it all the way up, somehow? Or do you just have that much smegma?

      It’s crazy how you poor mutilated people have no idea how it was designed to work.

      For one, I haven’t had smegma since my parents taught me to clean behind the foreskin (arguably later than they should have) when I was 7. You think we’re all just walking around with dirty penises?

      For two, the foreskin pulls back below the head, you can pull it down far enough that you look circumcised then you can pull it back over. Pull is a strong word it doesn’t take effort, but doing this is pleasurable to the point of ejaculating (i.e. that’s one way to masturbate as a person with a foreskin). No need for lube.

        I’m uncircumcised. The foreskin is automatically pulled down/back when you’re fully erect (or at least mine is…), what mystifies me is how you’d pull it back up far enough that you can use it in place of lubrication for the glans. Is your foreskin just that long? Mine certainly isn’t.

          Mine only goes half to 2/3s down the glans when erect, and there is enough slack to where if I hold the foreskin lower down it can slide up to mostly cover it. Sometimes a lil bit of spit or some such is still needed to lubricate the glans though.

          Broadly it’s probably just difference in genetics of size/slackness of foreskin, idk

          So I think there’s 2 parts to this, one is different people are different but the other is that when masterbating one might not be quite as erect as with a partner

          It must depend on the person because so am I and I certainly don’t have enough slack to use it like that.

          Yeah, but it goes up further and with the head of the penis being the most sensitive area, having that foreskin is quite useful.

        My foreskin doesn’t go all the way up when I have a full erection, and I don’t think that’s rare.

        Edit: Curious amount of downvotes. Are you grossed out by anatomical descriptions of healthy male genitals? If so, WTH are you doing in this thread? Do you not think that it’s rare? Then comment instead of downvoting, or at least in addition to it.

        … who’s out here sliding their hand? The skin slides relative to the deeper layers, foreskin or not

      Not sure I understand, but you grab below glans and force foreskin on and off the penis head repeatedly. Don’t have to pull it all the way to the tip, going halfway is enough. The foreskin skin is much smoother than hands, so barely any lube is required, just the natural skin oil is enough. I wouldn’t call it smegma as it usually refers to white substance full of dead skins and bacteria, but the underside of healthy clean penis foreskin is naturally a little wet.

        Probably some combination of not necessarily producing enough (not all people make the same amount) and lack of foreplay/edging

        personal anatomical anecdote

        For example I really only have precum after a decent amount of foreplay/edging, and not all that much. And a lil lubrication is sometimes useful for getting to that point.
