LPSG is a terrific website - I hope someone here can offer some advice.

I'm UK-based and swim several times a week. In the changing rooms I always hide my cock, because I had my foreskin cut off at the age of three and I think (for me) that it looks horrible.

I've been restoring my foreskin for three years (see Foreskin Restoration for Circumcised Men | Restoring Foreskin.org ) and have made good progress (am now a C-3), but still have a long way to go. (For C-indices see Foreskin Coverage Index )

I'm well hung (8.5" long x 6" around) and dream of being able to let it all hang out like some of the other guys do.

Should I just stop feeling ashamed, or should I wait until I'm fully restored before showing myself?


Thanks for any advice guys!

Stop feeling ashamed although by the tone of the above post, you don't sound too ashamed as it is. It's your dick. What do you think is the worst that will happen if someone sees it? Murder? You be amazed at how little men notice things anyway. The only reason you notice it is coz it's yours. Get on with your life and stop placing huge importance on things that have very little.

Ashamed because of what? Why wouldnt you just be able to let it hang out? Unless you're sporting a big boner I don't think the swim team is going to stop and analyze your dick on the C scale. They usually all look the same after swimming anyway (?)

Look, there'll be guys who've been circumcised, and some that weren't, and you're be somewhere in between - big deal!

On the other hand, anyone with an 8.5" cock might just get the odd look, but I doubt it's your foreskin that's caught their eye.

Of course you shouldn't feel ashamed!

Here's an idea: Why not go commando next time you're at the pool, that way - having already decided you're going to get naked - you won't be able to back out when you get there...?

Yeah, man, of course you should stop feeling ashamed! Why should you be ashamed? How does being circumcised make you a bad person? Because that's what shame is ultimately about, isn't it? Feeling badly about who you are as a person, and like you deserve to be judged by others? By all means keep restoring, if you want your foreskin back, but how does not having one make someone a bad person? Do other cut guys deserve to feel ashamed of themselves? I'm guessing you'd say no, so why just you?

Leave it alone, it's a perfectly good specimen which you are lucky to own.

I agree, foreskin or no foreskin you have a very impressive penis.

Be proud you've got a large one...no one is going to notice your foreskin restoration process unless they're standing right in front of you on their knees...hahaha!

Or if they do notice, take it as a compliment. :) I would if mine was that big.

Wally to each their own opinion and if that is how you feel you are entitled to it. But why should anyone be ashamed of their size regardless of how big or small it is? It's what each of us are born with. I did nothing special to be where I am and there are plenty bigger than mine. I suppose it's all about what is important to you. That is very, very low on my level of importance regarding another man. The man behind the dick regardless of it's size is what it's all about.


You should only be ashamed if your dick is small.

Most men, even well hung ones, are self conscious about their penises. So we're pretty much all in the same boat when we're naked in the locker room, for instance.
There's no reason why you should be ashamed of your penis, if nothing else than just by the fact that it is YOUR penis, so it is no one's business.
Besides, most men will be too busy trying to not get caught peeking at other penises, so don't worry.
Just act like it doesn't matter... because it doesn't!
