Title: Flaring
Post by: Sigra on 2017-02-17 17:33:28
I've read that a lot of guys who experiment with retraction in the long term develop a more 'flared' glans (specifically corona) which helps in keeping the foreskin back.

Is ths inevitable, as in something that naturally happens, or does it only happen to some men and not others?

Maybe somebody should run a poll on this to find out. It would be interesting to see the results. I know mine did after I had first pulled back a good many years ago.

Mine must be the same then, as my skin just stay's behind the head and always has. Must be one of the lucky one's.

I haven't noticed any really obvious flaring when looking at my glans. But I swear the ridge is more pronounced when the foreskin is forward. I wish I had some kind of objective measurement.

Mine surely flared a bit after I started retracting permanently.
Now when I roll the foreskin over the glans the corona ring is much more noticeable than before.
Maybe that takes it's time and then the skin stays back on it's own easier

I have done it for some while and not sure that i do see that flaring, as i want it to help me keep the skin back. Looks like it does work for some guys, but for me it does not look noticeable

You know, I hadn't really though about it, but that sounds about right for me too. Didn't really think mine had flared out noticeably, but it is quite a bit more visible through the skin, when rolled forward. Good observation.

I checked again, still really can not say it has
