Yes they do. The foreskin or prepuce is a natural part of the penis that is there for a number of reasons. At birth the glans of a baby's penis is not fully developed ant the foreskin is still attached to it while the glans finish their development. The foreskin at this stage protects the glans while this development is taking place. boys who are circumcised at this stage of their lives have to have the foreskin torn from the glans damaging the glans and causing an extreme of pain in so doing then the foreskin is cut away this in itself is a traumatising experience for the child and it will often go into catatonic shock as a result. but it at least stops screaming. after this the glans and wound are exposed to a regular soaking in urine and feces until it final heals. that in itself is already a good reason to keep the foreskin. However this is not where it ends. the foreskin once on the mature penis is lined with mucosal tissue which allows it to slide very smoothly up or down over the glans of the penis that and the massive amount of pleasure giving nerves that are peculiar to the foreskin and the glans heighten the pleasure gained from sex and masturbation. without it there would be far less pleasure and the glans on the penis becomes less sensitive because of the constant friction on clothing. the foreskin also makes sex more pleasurable for women. Circumcision is a religious and cultural practice and there are no health benefits to be gained from having it done. as a matter of inflicting this on a child ca lead to serious psychological problems.

Men do not need to have a foreskin. There are many men who have had their foreskins removed and as long as there are no complications with the procedure itself, it does not effect them in any detrimental way. In fact, to the contrary, there is actually some medical benefit, to having it removed.

What is male docking?

Male docking is an act performed between two men. One fo the two men must be uncircumcised and the longer the foreskin when erect, the easier it is. Both men obtain full erection and the foreskin is pulled back slightly. The tip of each penis is placed against each other. The foreskin is pulled back down covering as much of both penises as is possible. Usually masturbation follows while maintaining foreskin coverage of both men. Ejaculation may or may not be a part of the docking masturbation.


How do men clean their penises?

Keeping penis clean is very important. 1.) Gently pull the foreskin back. 2.) Rinse with warm water only. Soap under the foreskin can cause irritation and swelling. 3.) Pull the foreskin back in place over the head of your penis. Circumcised men can directly use warm water and soap and clean it carefully.

What is partial circumcision?

Partial circumcision removes only part of the foreskin. Partial foreskin may be used to treat phimosis (a tight foreskin) that does not respond to gradual stretching exercises with a corticosteroid cream. Instead of removing the entire foreskin, partial circumcision only removes the tight phimotic ring that prevents the foreskin from being retracted. Many men with phimosis prefer partial circumcision to complete circumcision as it retains most of the foreskin, which functions in several ways to increase pleasure during sexual activity.


What is a long foreskin?

By examination of the word 'long' one would assume the question is referring to a foreskin greater than average. Average foreskin covers the glans of the penis completely when soft. When erect average foreskin typically slides back and exposes some if not all of the glans. If a man has 'long' foreskin, by description alone it suggests that the foreskin is of a greater/longer amount than average. Some men with longer foreskins can have an erection with no exposure of the glans. In other cases the foreskin can be long enough to cover the glans during erection with excess at the tip. Typically the position of the foreskin is dependant upon the elasticity and size of the frenum, which attatches the foreskin to the underside of the glans. The more flexible and abundant the frenum is, the more likely the foreskin is able to slide up and down.
