>hi, stretching the foreskin from ten days now. Today managed to retract it (mostly) behind the glans when limp and am also able to half retract it when erect, but it's still tight.... I know I have to work more on stretching!

Tony, I'm not at all sure exposing it to direct sunlight is a good idea, since it isn't keratinised, and exposing the naked cells directly to uv radiation could be dangerous. Keeping the bare glans exposed to circulating air, however, should help reduce sensitivity to a manageable level. A good many men have resorted to permanent retraction (just as some of the Sioux tribe did) with this idea in mind.Do you think it's a good idea?
