I am a 33 year old guy and just recently have been able to fully retract my foreskin over the head of my penis.

Needless to say, it was a very freeing and liberating feeling to finally be able to do this. I'm almost embarrassed to mention this, but it was also somewhat shocking to see the head of my cock for the first time!

But I noticed that the head of my dick is very, very, tender to the touch, and extremely sensitive...for all you guys that have had a similar experience, is this normal? Will this extreme tenderness and sensitivity subside over time?

Just curious and interested to hear from guys that have had similar experience. Thanks for any feedback!

What? Did you every play? I started keeping my foreskin back when I was 13. It was sensitive and I have to wear jockey briefs. Would not change it for anything.

I keep mine covered. Very sensitive! I don't like the feel of briefs rubbing against it, it hurts!

Imagine your eyes closed for years, then suddenly opening them, and seeing bright light.
It will take your cock a few weeks to get accustomed to the sudden flood of sensation.

Aren't uncircumsized guys always sensitive? I know when you get circumsized it takes away a ton of nerve endings and all that...ugh, I wish I was uncut, damn you mom!

Normally, the glans goes from being overly sensitive and unpleasant to touch to being nicely sensitive and fun to play with just before puberty. (hence that is when masturbation become fun whereas in the pas, washing glans in bath was unpleasant).

For someone who is unable to retract, this process is delayed quite a bit. If you are only now able to retract, then your glans will mature into adulthood where the excess sesnitivity will disapear and leave you with a glans that is fun to play with.

Leaving foreskin retracted as long as possible will make the process quicker.

Thanks for the great advice men!

Since my original post, I've been trying to keep the foreskin retracted for longer periods of time and stretching the foreskin more, though, I will admit that it does still feel a little awkward.

And walking around, with clothes on is...not exactly painful....but just somewhat uncomfortable, as the glans is still very sensitive. But judging from everyone's replies, the sensitivity will lessen to a more normal type of feel. Thanks again guys!

This is new for me. I'm uncut but never pull back unless I'm in a an intimate moment... But do some guys maintain pulled back for an extended period of time in everyday situations? Gotta admit I'm more a grower than a shower... and have lots of skin.... maybe this is what makes the difference.

I'm uncut and my skin has been retracted 75% of time since i was about 13, the initial discomfort from sensation does soon subside.
spot on mate. give it time, you are doing everything right it just takes TIME - every little bit will help.

I'm uncut and can't remember when I didn't pull my foreskin fully back. I recall my father telling me to pull it fully back and wash my cock head when very young, he rightly said it was essential hygiene. When I discovered the joys of masturbating at age 13 I'd always pull my foreskin fully clear of the cock head on each stroke.

I didn't start to try and keep my foreskin fully back until my late teens, I wanted to de-sensitize my cock as I thought I came too soon when fucking. It felt unusual at first but I got used to it, having my foreskin back seemed to de-sensitize my cock after a while, or perhaps I got better at being able to hold back when I was with a girl. When my foreskin was back I'd feel very sexy, and I'd go on dates or to parties with it back. Later in life I'd often have my foreskin back, especially on nude beaches. Fortunately it tends to stay back when I want it.

Just keep it back and you'll get used to it!

I pulled my foreskin back when I was around 14, very sensitive for a while but lessened over time. I'm now 51 and glad I did. I can now choose to cover or uncover mainly uncovered. I get glances in showers or naturist beaches wondering whether I'm cut or uncut I guess! No regrets at all.

i only managed to retract the foreskin fully at about age 15/16. the head was initially painfully sensitive but now, 16 years later, i'm at a stage where i can stroke the head direct, without any lube if need be, and enjoy it. my advice would be to enjoy the new sensations - working a cock head direct is a far more intense and pleasurable way to have sex and jerk off.
