Pulled back — living with a bare head

I've always wanted to ask this. I remember when I was a kid, and my foreskin still had some minor adhesions to the glans, just around the edge of the corona. I remeber experiencing the gradual dissolution of those adhesions, and getting my first look at the groove of the coronal sulcus. It was fascinating for me at the time to see more and more of it, as it gradually became more exposed. But here's the thing: I was expecting the frenum's connection to dissolve as well. It never happened for me, but there are some guys who seem to naturally be without a frenulum. I wonder if for them it did just disconnect like the rest of the foreskin. And I wonder if any other guys had expected this to happen when they were growing up. Anybody?

I totally thought the same thing, since I had a couple small adhesions until puberty as well!

For some guys, the frenulum tears during vigorous masturbation or sex. Other guys (like me!) cut it on purpose, and yet other guys just seem to be born with very minimized and long/loose frenulums.

I remember separating my own adhesions as a small boy, the last one came up when I was almost, but not quite, six.  I saw that the frenulum was rather different from my adhesion though, so I never expected it to behave the same way.  My parents might have seeded that anatomical information in me at some point, this I do not know.

I didn't actually retract my foreskin for the first time until i was about sixteen, and always masturbated with the foreskin on.  By that time the frenulum was well developed, and I didn't even realize that some intact guys don't really have much of a frenulum;  mine was very prominent.  Only now I realize that not all frenulums are the same.

At what age did your adhesion begin dissolving? I've always wondered if everyone had adhesion or was the groove of the coronal sulcus always visible? I've wondered about this because I wonder if it affected their ability to retract and keep retracted their foreskin. Mine did not dissolve but I tore the adhesion during a very rigorous pulling session at age 9.

Well, I don't exactly remember. I can tell you that I don't recall any time when I could not retract my foreskin easily. But I do remember a time when the sulcus was mostly unexposed. So I could pull the skin back far enough to completely reveal the glans, but all or most of the sulcus was still concealed by adhesions. This gradually dissolved starting from the dorsal side, then continuing toward, and finishing up at the frenulum. I'm not really sure how long that took. Some details of those memories are fuzzy. I think once the adhesions started to come apart, it was a matter of days, or weeks at most, for them to completely separate; probably encouraged by me playing with it. :) If I had to guess, I think this was sometime between age 6 and 8. But I could have been a bit later.

Once I'd got my skin to stay back - something I found comparatively easy because I started young - I set about stretching my frenulum until I could pull my skin all the way smoothly and tightly back without bending the tip of my glans down. I was later circumcised as an adult and my frenulum was cut through. It now has a PA piercing through it.

I always wondered why the skin would not come back, until i forcefully yanked it bavk and about halfway down there were some adhesions.

I distinctly remember pulling my adhesions. I was 13 and I did it over two days (half one day half the next) because it hurt. But I also remember a strange sense of satisfaction that I had after. At the time I was worried it was going to be stuck to the glans forever.

I was 13 too, when I started to masturbate in the shower at first. It took some time for me to realise my cock looked different than
the ones I saw on the internet (assumingly americans with flared glans) which seemed for me to be the norm.
At that point I decided to find out why, because I wanted the same look with a masculine prominent glans.
So I pulled on my inner foreskin. First slightly then harder when seeing my inner foreskin starting to seperating slowly from the head beginning at the left side close to the frenulum.
It was still totally adhered at that time... The procedure was quite painful as the corona had never been uncovered and touched before,
pulling the adhesions forcefully off, and made it an intense experience which felt strangely enough erotically exciting. As you can imagine i got hard while doing this.
So I pulled it off part by part and when the last patch came off at the center(starting at the left side continuing at the right to meet in the middle) I saw my mushroom head for the first time. I was truely fascinated.
Because of the excitement while still in pain I started to come instantly. This combination made it one of the most intense orgasms ever.
I remeber the tip of my penis beeing sore for at least a week until everything healed up. Nothing ever reattatched and from now on I looked different down there but like every adult male, which made me pretty proud....
13 is quite old for this to happen and i think because of that i can still identify where the connection of the foreskin was on the glans. the borders seems to be some kind of more smooth compared to the rest.
please tell me if you had similar experiences!

Thanks for sharing your story. Were you surprised that the frenulum did not detach when you separated your adhesions?

yes, somehow earlier i thought my glans looks strange because it wasnt round at the underside...

but by that time i saw others and knew the frenulum was normal...

I was 8/9, when i started to pull back he skin, but i never knew what a frenulum was, so i never thought about it then. When i got older i realised that i could push my skin right back, bit the frenulum was making my dick arch a little, and wondered if i removed that my skin would go right back. I remember a school the guy who was cut an wondered what it would be like, thats when i would expose my head to look like his

I am sure I never thought my frenulum would detach, not sure why someone would think that. 
I am glad it is still intact, because that provides me the ability to cover or uncover as I
decide for the day.  True, a missing or cut frenulum wouldn't stop me from covering or
uncovering, it does provide for a more stable foreskin.

It also is the most sensitive spot on my whole 73 year old body.  Since I have managed
to accept my foreskin and it's capabilities (cover, uncover, millions of nerves), I think
it might be moot for me to change anything now.  I just prefer to have the option to
present my glans as either exposed or not depending on many factors.  (temp, sun,
snow)(I like the feel of snow and rain on my exposed glans, but when it gets too cold, I need
to cover up)

I've already told my story about how a doctor retracted me for the first time when I was pretty small and not able to retract my foreskin, so I guess that was the moment when most of my adhesions broke up. later on when I started to masturbate and pull my foreskin back I was able to pull it just until the glans is exposed but not the coronal sulcus. Little by little during years it show off too, but still only like 1 cm of inner foreskin was visible and my frenulum was attached pretty close to the meatus, I really wanted to expose all the inner foreskin because it was so pleasurable to touch but had no idea what can I do to "fix" it...
About 25 y.o. ( 2 years ago ) I started to be interested in permanent foreskin retraction, it took me a while to found the double tape method and even more time to manage to do it. The first couple times I can say I made it almost right it was putting so much preasure to the frenulum but I stayed like that couple hours because I finally did it...having a hand job and sex after and my frenulum tore at one spot, I felt so stupid because I ruined the most pleasurable part of my dick. For a couple of days it healed, I had careful sex and masturbating, but it tore again couple of days after, and again and again, like 10 times ( may be more ) heal-tore-heal period, and then it suddenly stopped at one point. Now may be 7 months later my frenulum is still fine, stretched as hell :D super pleasurable, not even a little pain even if I pull it as hard as I can.
So I never actually though about it but I hoped it will happen somehow so I can enjoy all my inner foreskin and I helped it happen inadvertently, god bless my luck :)

I wish if it could be naturally detached as i grew up, though i dont have any problem even with attached frenulum.

Good question!

I was around 13 or 14 and I noticed there was a part of teh inner foreskin deattached from the glans corona and I touched it. Felt really good and so I started pulling the rest back....after a 2 or 3 years of pulling the rest of teh attachments back I learned it was harmless to oull them so I went for it.

whe I was 16 or 17 I deattached the final bit of skin....felt great to see under my glans completely and at the moment it even felt really fresh jhahaha like air got there for the first time....

that part below the glans still remain covered even when i get hard...but is not attached anymore. It is by far the most sensitive part of my penis so I treat it with respect LOL

Good forum!

OK, but you didn't answer the question. Did you originally think that the frenulum was going to detach from the glans like the rest of the foreskin did?

You're right, I'm sorry JDM!

Reading more carefully, I would have answered "Never even though about it." I didn't read you were not asking about the foreskin or inner foreskin, bot about the frenulum( the band than unites the urethra with teh foreskin)

Sorry I altered your poll's figures...need to improve my English (not native speaker/writer)

Gracias again!

Mine didn't detach until I was around 13/14 years old. It was after I had finally separated the skin that was attached to my corona. I could finally pull the skin back all the way, but the frenulum would cause the tip to point down when I did. It was during one of my masterbation on sessions, I was starting to cum and I pulled the skin back too far. There was a lot of pain through out my orgasm and I instantly let go of the skin. (I always used the thumb and finger way) when I tried to pull the skin back again It hurt bad and there was some blood on the underside of the glans. Now the head was very sensitive and hurt as I examined what had happened.  I had torn the frenulum in 2 spots. It took a couple of days before I could begin to pull the skin back all the way again because of the pain. After it started healing, I would keep the skin back  for long periods of time to let it dry out which seemed to help with the healing. After it healed, I could masterbate fully  exposing the head which had a better feeling orgasm. To this day because of what happened, I virtually have no frenulum. It is just a very small cord under the glans.

Wow, you kinda lucked out!

This question is not stupid at all. Personally, when I was a teenager (I am now almost 60 years old), I remember very well that precisely, I was convinced that the frenulum was going to detach from the foreskin when I had my first sexual intercourse. In reality, this idea hadn't really come to my mind on its own, but following a conversation with my grandfather, an intelligent, open-minded man who was far ahead of his time, who started explaining sexuality to me when I was about twelve years old. During his explanations he had taught me a lot of things, starting with the official names of the genitals (penis, vagina, testicles etc.) instead of the traditional "dick" or "cock". He was going to explain to me the moment of the defloration of young people, explaining to me well the tearing of the hymen in particular. On the other hand, he had made a mistake, no doubt perhaps as a result of his own personal experience. , explaining to me that the frenulum broke during the first penetration in a vagina, so I had taken this explanation at face value and I actually thought, during my adolescence, that my frenulum would come off during my first intercourse Curiosity even pushed me several times between the ages of about 12 and 14, to see if I could not "deflower" myself on my own during my masturbation. quite strongly on the frenulum in the secret hope of succeeding in detaching it from the glans. come back to the question asked, which is not stupid, and answer e, I can say YES somehow, I thought my frenulum would come off the glans in a natural way.

Very interesting story. Thanks for sharing.

It's an old story, but I see that the question is still relevant and that young people today are wondering the same way as I was 45 years ago, and no doubt many others men since the dawn of time.

To complete my testimony, I was surprised the day I had my first sexual intercourse, to find that the frenulum finally remained intact. Somehow it frustrated me, and that's about when the idea to delete it came to me. Both because I thought the frenulum was infantile, but also because I had noticed that during erections, it pulled hard on the glans, bending it downwards. Once in a vagina, it pulled strongly on it, but without breaking it. So much so that I had pain during intercourse. I used the piercing / tying up method, with an excellent result, very aesthetic, and fully functional, the foreskin can easily be lowered back as far as possible. It's a shame, but I don't know how to add photos on this site, otherwise I would have put one to illustrate this thread.

There is an "insert image" button, just below the "bold" button, in the message composition window.

Yes, I saw, but I don't understand how to proceed ...

No and I never thought about it as it really has never been a problem

Reading through the replies has reminded me of one of the first times, I suppose around the age of 12 or so, that I was allowed to stay home alone whilst the rest of my family went shopping. I can remember standing in the bathroom with my foreskin retracted and a pair of nail scissors in my hand, thinking that if I just clipped through the annoying bit of skin under my head that seemed to be stopping it, then I would be able to get my foreskin to roll back all the way and flatten right out. Probably just as well that I heard a key in the door just as I was stealing myself to actually do it! 50+ years later, and with all the guidance on here about how it might be done rather more safely, I'd still wishing that I could roll back totally flat. It's an intriguing thought about what might have happened if my folks had had to wait just a few more minutes for their bus back from the shops!

I wasn't even aware I had a frenulum when I was younger. My father was circumcised so just assumed my penis would look like his eventually when older.
