Phimosis. This is one of those things they really should teach in sex ed, but don't, because... well, if you're in the US, you can probably guess. As the glans isn't exposed and you're not getting the gliding action of the foreskin, you're missing a fair bit of sensation, and having sex can actually be painful if you're not using a condom, because the skin is being pulled farther than it can stretch.
You should probably see a doctor about it- remember that it's a medical problem, not a moral failing on your part- but they're likely to suggest some rather drastic measures. Save surgery as a last resort- the foreskin is skin, and with some patience and effort, you can stretch it so it fits over (ever see people with those giant lip disks? Same principle, on a much smaller scale). Much better to not sacrifice all that foreskin can do for you.0 1 0 0but ain't forskin pointless if your just supposed to pull it down anyway. It just seems like pointless skin that gets in the way especially if your supposed to clean it while it's pulled back so might as well get rid of it so i don't have to every-time. And yeah they really should teach it.
No. Not hardly. It retracts (exposing the glans) as the penis enters a vulva, then folds back up as the penis withdraws. It's the only moving part of the whole human sexual apparatus (and the only retractable human body part at all), and doesn't just give sensations in its own right (and not just to you- take a look at a medical textbook (if you can find one with an intact penis in it; it's harder than you'd think) and compare it to the projections on a condom that's "ribbed for her pleasure"- it also serves to protect the glans from both chemical and physical irritations. Without it, the skin gradually hardens and loses its sensitivity- not all of it, obviously, but enough to make a serious difference, as you'll find if you talk to men who lost it as adults. Note that that's men, plural; some do say it doesn't make much difference, and a few will even claim it made things better, though I suspect that's mostly because their glans had never been stimulated before; the majority say it's a distinct negative. It's like saying that you should have your eyelids removed because they get in the way of putting in your contacts.
Well i know eyelids are pretty useful. Pretty weird ordeal retractable penis lol. But thanks for the info, think it makes sense. Annoying my body don't just do it naturally so i could of know this the whole time. I will try to get it solved with surgery then. Virgin awkward moment could of been more awkward if i didn't even know about this.
That's called phimosis. It may be an issue if you're not cleaning under it, but a doctor visit is advisable to learn stretching and retraction methods and, if needed, receive some medicated creams.
0 2 0 0That's gonna be an awkward doctor convo. But yeah probably best to ask them. Oh great of course it would rare thing that happens to people and just happens to be me. And could be an sign of diabetes. Poor hygiene don't really have a problem with that so that shouldn't be a reason. I did have an infection as a kid maybe that is why i have it. This is well awful.

Something seriously wrong, My aunt even showed me the other day when I went to look after her toddler how to wash there and that pull back... so damn isn't it like stinking?
0 1 0 0I didn't even know there was anything there but i shower like i normally have. No one has ever shown me this was a thing shrugs. And nah it's not
So you've never ever seen someone else's penis? Is the head perhaps smaller than the shaft too?
No i am not gay so i have never really looked lol. And nah the head seems to be bigger now i've looked at and even realized this is a thing. Of course i never gave it much thought because i thought mine was like everyone elses
If it's not hurting then there's no problem.

2 2Yes it is.
0 1 0 0It’s called phimosis. Talk to your doctor. There are a few options.
0 1 0 0It’s not usual but it’s not THAT uncommon an issue. You either need to gradually stretch it using a cream they can proscribe that helps, or get circumcised (which just deals with it instantly). Either result will be better than the status quo.
I mean if this is a problem why don't everyone just get circumcised? At birth then it won't be? And i would haven't to deal with this awkward stuff now
Well there’s a reason some cultures do just that. In any case I got an adult circumcision by choice. It’s not that big a deal
It can be a medical condition if painful, you need to check if it hurts when touching it
If so consult immediately0 1 0 0Nah it don't hurt. It's just never pulled back and apparently it's supposed to when hard? i didn't even know there was a head gland thing in there...
Ok man you should definitely try to pull it back by doing regular exercises Its better for skin condition and pleasure
That honestly seems freaky. Like just pulling it out. But yeah maybe i am guessing it's a turn off for most girls probably. Which i don't need another reason to be so.
So you never washed there dude?
0 1 0 0On a serious note, did you not notice any other guys penis?
I am not gay. I don't really look at other guys dicks lmao
And yeah of course i wash it?
