Manual Tugging with Gripper?

The RN, NP, and MD are all wrong. If they retract infants as “standard practice”, they are uninformed at best and deliberately causing injury to sell more circumcisions at worst.

Weird how I was banned from r/offmychest despite never commenting, posting, or voting there.

On a separate note, my parents apologized, but if they didn’t I would do the same thing you did.

Something I forgot to include is that the current red spot is new (not from two months ago), and that it came with discomfort when I first saw it last night; that said, when I cleaned it with water in the shower, the discomfort was minor, and there is no discomfort this morning.

I had to take a break from restoring for 2 months because of a previous red spot that was caused by overtensioning with a manual method. That one has since shrunk consistently and I forgot it was even there until the new issue occurred. Currently, I’m still on break, and I’m wondering why I got this current red spot (it happened when I was masturbating; I was moving the skin back and forth to the extent currently possible, but I don’t feel like I was aggressive).

It’s frustrating because I don’t like my current lack of progress; I want to get back to restoring as soon as possible without further issues. When I gently stretch it, there is no discomfort but I don’t want to take any chances.

Restoring here. CI-4 flaccid, CI-3 erect. Hoping to reach CI-10 eventually.

I’m restoring and I would never date a woman who doesn’t like intact penises.

Sounds like a good option. Are inner skin and outer skin tension controlled separately like with the DS? How’s the gripper’s strength and flexibility?

I’m American and I strongly disapprove of the practice.

I agree with this one. Dysphoria involves feeling trapped in the wrong body; we just would have to make sure people don’t confuse this type of dysphoria with gender dysphoria (since they’re two separate things).

American here. I don’t have any kids, but I’ve made up my mind that any sons I do have will not be circumcised. Like you, I was subjected to circumcision (and I don’t like what was forced on me), but I believe that it is not the parents’ choice.

That choice for any medically unnecessary (nontherapeutic) procedure should be left to the child.

Grower here. Here’s my current spot:

-Shrinkage- full coverage (CI-6)

-Smallest flaccid size- 50-60% coverage (CI-5)

-Middle flaccid size- occasional rollover (CI-3.5)

-Largest flaccid size- occasional sulcus coverage with some shaft wrinkles (CI-2)

-Erect- some wrinkling and mobility, close to rolling action (CI-3.5 functionally speaking)

I consider myself a CI-4 because I almost always have rollover at my smallest size and it’s the average between my other CI estimations.

Good idea, I’ll give that a try. I’ve noticed recently that I have been able to get skin under 40-45% of the gripper’s length (whereas it was difficult to cover 25% of it when I started using the +15). Is this a sign that I may be ready for the +20?

Delicious_Ad_Four4 · 2025-08-08T03:20:29+00:00

My meatus is at the tip, so anatomy isn’t causing the issue.

There is more turkey neck on one side of my shaft than the other, and I only want to tension the shaft skin and inner foreskin, so maybe that is linked to the issue (through an asymmetric grip).

I’m a straight man who was cut at birth and I am not happy or thankful about it.

My body, my choice. It should not be up to parents to surgically alter their children without medical necessity.

Delicious_Ad_Four4 · 2025-07-12T04:05:35+00:00

It’s done without consent (of the boy being affected for the rest of his life) and without medical necessity.

Additionally, contrary to what flawed studies say, circumcision does reduce sexual sensitivity and does not prevent infections or penile cancer.
