Discussing Foreskin Restoration with Friends
Talking about foreskin restoration with friends can be a tricky topic.
On one hand, I want them to understand my mission and why it means so much to me. But on the other hand, I am generally private and don’t discuss anything related to sex with friends. So I feel like I’m crossing several boundaries at once. That’s also where the lines get blurred about what circumcision really is. It’s not just about sex. It’s about human rights. I try to approach it from that angle.
One conversation in particular comes to mind. It was with a female friend who I’ve known my entire life. As a gay man, I suppose I’m given a little more leniency with discussing these things as it could have been especially awkward if I were straight. I don’t even remember how we got on the topic, but when I first told her I was restoring my foreskin, there was a noticeable shock in her expression.
“Ewww, why would you want to do that? Foreskins are gross,” she responded.

Yes, you can! Well, kind of. You can never truly get your foreskin back once you’ve been cut. But you can safely develop new skin.
Condoms are the only proven safe and effective method to prevent the spread of HIV. Don’t believe dangerous myths that encourage unprotected sex after circumcision.
