>But there is very little credible scientific documentation on this aspect of the foreskin. The rapid anti-circ folks will tell you that a foreskin should cover the glans at all times, even during erection, but that doesn't reflect reality either.

Well, we keep saying that in normal conditions, ie. non-sexual conditions, ie. not during an erection, masturbation, sex; it should cover, as that is its obvious nature-given purpose (why does this apply to most male mammals otherwise?) --- I'm just pointing this out, simply because "all the time" seems to be used by pro-circ people when they mention this issue, and I have yet to see any of us here really mean all the time.

Not to bash you.

I do agree with the other things you've mentioned. It is a difference between people, and I think that's about it. Unless lubed, mine never auto-retracts, and I sure am loose. I wonder if those textbooks you mention are American ones where foreskins are rare anyway, not to mention normal-length ones. As we know, earlier a good deal of males only escaped circumcision because they had a short foreskin, ie. were "naturally circumcised" (the bullshittest description EVER). Those males can easily be expected to autoretract upon erection, dont you think?
