Option 1: Scrunched
votes: 248
Option 2: Folded
votes: 51
I've attached examples:
Top one is scrunched
Bottom one is folded.
As a bonus question any pros or cons to your method.
I'll go first. My skin normally folds over.
However, I notice minor smegma build up in the doubled over foreskin when using this method.
I may try the scrunch method to see if this dries the skin out a bit more.
Scrunch method was short lived, it doesn't stay put, moving back to folding as it stays put
Most people I've seen, normally retract into scrunched position. There seems to be a minority who naturally retract to folded. I have a small sample size, but natural folded ones have a tendency of the folded state not keeping the skin behind the head at all, whereas the scrunched ones if they can make a stable fold (i.e. spoon method), typically end up with the skin staying for at least a while.
Interesting. Mines always naturally folded and always stays retracted.
afternoon,
Mines folds back but I tuck it in using the spoon method, I have pics in the gallery if you're interest.
I'm trying a new way to keep it back today using the spoon method, small bit of hairspray, don't know if this will work but will find out today whilst at work. No signs of stinging so far! :P
My foreskin usually retracts into the scrunch position, it doesn't naturally fold, though that would be very convenient as folding generally holds the foreskin back longer
Very much scrunched. If I put a lot of effort into the spoon method I can get it to fold nicely, but rarely
I usually keep mine folded like in the 2nd photo but I always struggle to get the underside as neat because the frenulum kind of gets in the way of the folding process, not sure if there's any way to overcome that though.

Has this made any difference in how well the skin stays folded back?
Mine also naturally bunches. It will stay back most of the time like that but can slip over the glans sometimes. This tends to happen when I'm sitting down most of the day in work.
Usually now use the spoon method to fold it under. It will stay back constantly when I do this. It will stay back when I'm erect but can come out if I don't take care nasurbating or having sex. Other than that I only take out the fold when showering and sometimes leave it in place even then. Have gone for over a week before with no sign of the foreskin unfolding itself.
I am the same scrunched up unless I use the spoon method. But I am happy how my cock looks, foreskin stays back unless in boxers or I move it over.
Mine will stay bunched up behind the glans.
I've tried folding the skin using the spoon method but it will gradually unfold & go back to being bunched up over a few hours.
Mine looks folded like your picture, the skin does not bunch like the other
When I normally pull back, my skin becomes scrunched.
However, when I pull back with my skin lubricated, it retracts into folded position. That's how I discovered the fold-back method some decades ago.
Following this invention I used a U- shape bent wire (rather then a spoon) to fold-back my skin without lubrication.
Later I learned to fold-back my skin without any aid only by plucking the skin on suitable positions on the top, the right and the left within some seconds.
Mine is scrunched too. Actually, I never thought a foreskin could be folded over by itself. My goal is to have the glans exposed all the time without any device or anything, and I think the wrinkles on the foreskin caused by its scrunching up will be helpful, necessary even. As long as your foreskin learns to stay pulled back naturally, I think whatever works for you is good.
My foreskin is folded, I kinda hate that but also makes me feel special that I'm 1 of 4

Mine too! Looks almost circumcised from top but as you say the frenulum spoils this look underneath! Im going to attempt to trim it a bit more using a electrocautery pen. Ive already cut it twice using the thread method but the last bit is quite thick.

The pic you posted in the gallery isn't folded though (looks great btw :))
I don't really know which one mine is considered as... I think my method is to fold the skin over itself, but since I got quite a lot of it I think it just scrunches up especially when I'm flaccid, considering it gets over the corona ever so slightly (flaccid pic in gallery).

Looks like your glans flares out slightly more when you fold the foreskin behind it, maybe the flaring also helps keep it back in that position where the scrunching doesn't. I assume by how dry your glans looks that it's comfortable to leave it folded like that all the time?
I've tried both the scrunch and fold methods but both end up with the frenulum being irritated and sore after a few hours, tucking in with the handle of a spoon seems to work although I have to make sure to do it fully all the way round or it unravels itself without warning!

Yeah I've been leaving it pulled back (on and off) for years. It's always naturally folded and feels fine to leave it back.
Have only realised from this forum that it isn't the same for everyone.

There's an inevitable bit of scrunching around the head due to gravity and excess skin but it's nearly always folded over.
Just always scrunched. Don't think I've ever seen it 'folded'
If I just pull back and leave it there, it's definitely "scrunched". But with a small amount of effort, I can put it in the folded configuration.
Mine was always scrunched. It never folded naturally and I never folded it manually. The desire to get rid of the bunched up skin is one of the reasons I got circumcised.
If one develops deep shaft wrinkles, you will avoid the "scrunched" up skin behind the corona. You will then be permanently pulled back with almost the same appearance as being circumcised, plus you still retain the option of being not if so choosing.

Do you have any tips for those who would like to try to encourage the development of these deep shaft wrinkles? I'm trying to envisage what they look like so as to know whether I actually developed any in the course of my 20 years of retraction. I believe I passed very well for being circumcised, though of course,
I knew that I wasn't. Then I got circumcised and I finally
knew that I was, plus I had the scar to prove it. I never had the option of not being permanently pulled back once I'd reached, say, 16 because there was no way the skin was going to go forwards again and even less chance of it staying there, though that was never my desire.

FWIW rubbercock and the others that may be interested, these links show what I have previously posted in demonstrating how to develop deep shaft wrinkles. If properly developed, they are so ingrained that the shaft skin is in essence shortened and requires special taping to later have a covered glans.

One may try any of these but any method that holds the shaft skin closer to the groin should work. Unfortunately, this system may be a little better for those that are closer to the "shower" category.
My foreskin stays way back most of the time just by itself as you can see.
That is beautiful...
That is amazing and absolutely inspiring!
Scrunched behind the glans when retracted, in a turtle neck band that is thick. Just discovered the spoon method, now can fold my forskin neatly on the shaft and behind the glans so it looks like it is smooth and part of the shaft, almost looks like I am cut, but undet the glans, the is a little skin that I can never quite get fully tucked in. Just going to have to keep trying!
Definitely scrunched.
Mine naturally scrunched as most of you guys.First weeks I needed to fold it with fingers and stayed that all the time until I unfold it.After few weeks it stays just scrunched without folding. Now it's not even possible to fold because of the changes of the foreskin,that used to have a narrow tip and it's a wide O shape at this time. Anyways I want some deep wrinkles like you L!

This is absolutely nice L! Looks like your foreskin was so short,almost like circumcised.How does it look in more flaccid state,does it wrinkles a bit? I'm trying to push the skin up with cloth wrapping these days.
Depends but usually scrunched when soft, folded when hard.
When I pull it back, it just scrunches. I've never thought about it being any other way. Just the way it has always been.
My foreskin stays back behind the head when retracted. It will pretty much stay back unless I pull it forward.
Originally I started off keeping things folded behind my glans, probably started in my mid teens but really only got into regularly retracting about six years ago. This past year I wanted to experiment with more exposure so I started scrunching and am quite happy with the results. It helps that I don't have a lot of extra skin so it stays put regardless of what position I leave it.
I have already had a naked glans since I was 14 years old, today I am 63, in total 49 years with the glans discovered. My foreskin is very short and remains lodged behind the crown of the glans forming a very fine and thin ring. At first glance it looks like a circumcised penis, but no, my foreskin is intact.
Very nice.
