I had this problem until I was 19. I couldn't retract the skin because it was so painful. I had a very short frenulum so I couldn't even masturbate. I went to a doctor, he said I should circumcise. DO NOT circumcise your skin. There's a much simpler operation where you just cut and remove the frenulum. I learned this from Google, the operation lasted 15 minutes and my recovery was extremely fast

remove the frenulum

Damn, you had the male clitoris removed? That really sucks, I feel for your loss :-(

What? Since when is the frenulum the male clitoris?

[–] thecrotch 33 points 10 months ago (1 children)

The penis is the male clitoris

[–] [email protected] 7 points 10 months ago

Yeah, maybe they mixed it up.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 10 months ago (1 children)

It isn't. The analogous structure is the entire glans.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 10 months ago

It's actually the whole penis. The glans is only the glans of the clitoris. The other parts (internal) of the clitoris, in the case of a penis, are the whole shaft.

The labias (the large ones) are your scrotum.

It was that or no sex at all. At least I got to keep my skin, so the sensation stayed the same. When you are circumcised you loose a lot of feelings down there

Uh, no. I mean, only get surgery if you must, and mutilation of babies is wrong, but that is not the male clitoris.
