My first body modification took place shortly after entering high school in the early 1960's. While showering after gym class I saw my first uncircumcised penis. I didn't know what it was or even that something had been done to mine. At this point I thought something had been done to his. From the very first, I knew that I liked the look of his more than mine. I got some adhesive tape and cut it into 1/4" strips and would pull the skin forward and tape it in place. At first I could only keep it on for very short periods. Being a hormonally charged teenager, I would soon get an erection and if not relieved would a serious case of blue balls would develop. During this period, the longest I left it taped up was two days over a weekend.

I haphazardly continued to tape the foreskin forward for the next 15 or so years. I never made a real effort to permanently stretch the skin. I had never heard anything about foreskin restoration, or even new that anyone else felt the same as myself. By about 1980, the skin covered the head most of the time, and I hadn't made any real effort. One girlfriend even thought that I was uncut. About this time I was browsing through Tower Books in Sacramento, when I saw a book titled something like the encyclopedia of sex or something like it. I didn't buy the book, as I would have been way too embarrassed. One of the topics covered was body piercing. In it there was a picture of a man with a large ring through his foreskin. I thought this was unbelievable, it was the neatest penis I had ever seen.

About 4 years later, I read something about an outfit in Los Angeles that published a magazine about piercing. I sent away to the address given, and received a copy of PFIQ. I then learned it was possible to pierce the foreskin. I proceeded to pierce both sides of the foreskin. Unfortunately, I was never the patient type. I would play with piercings all of the time. I loved to pull on the skin and attach weights. About 3 months later one of the piercings broke through. The other was on its last legs, so I abandoned it also. I tried a couple of other times, but kept taking then out before the fully healed. I think I enjoyed the pain of the pierce almost too much.

I then spent the next decade involved only with play piercing. Some of these were pretty intense. A couple of times, I used a self piercing brass bull ring. I would pull the skin forward, then press the ring closed using a vise. At first the pain would be excruciating, but then the endorphins would kick in and it was like I was doing it to someone else. I also nailed the skin to a board with a hammer. It was so quick, there is very little pain. I also used a staple gun one time. I would like to do it with a pneumatic nailing gun one of these days, but as I live in an apartment, it is not feasible.

Several years ago, I found something else. I took a sewing needle and some 20 pound fishing line and sewed the foreskin closed. I stuck the needle in on the underneath side, ran it along the side and out the top. I then went back through the same hole on the top, down the other side back to the original hole on the bottom. I then would pull the line tight, and knot it. On a couple of occasions I pulled it so tight that there was virtually no opening. I even took a hand pump with a needle used to fill a football and inflated my foreskin. Once I left it blown up for a couple of hours. I would always undo the knot and pull the line out, and a couple of days later my penis would be good as new. This was great fun.

Two years ago, after I sewed my skin up, I decided to leave it that way. I hadn't pulled the line nearly as tight, leaving an opening of about 1/2". During the course of healing, the line cut through a little of the skin toward the top. This resulted in the opening expanding to about 5/8". It healed with no complications. After about nine months, I decided that the opening was still to large, so repeated the procedure. This time I pulled the line tighter. I now have an opening in the foreskin of about 3/8". I really love my unretractable foreskin and have absolutely no problems with it. I have even thought of making the opening smaller, but I would probably go overboard so haven't.

I would still like to pierce the foreskin, and perhaps stretch it out like A Viking Navarro did in PFIQ #13.
