Jelqing results uncircumcised vs circumcised

I noticed Thunder et al have done a great job of making things as objective as possible when reporting data from members. I try to maintain as much of a data driven approach as possible, particularly as there does not seem to be much peer reviewed data on jelqing on pubmed. Some questions I had:

-Is there any info on whether jelqing is more effective for uncircumcised vs circumcised men? I have been thinking about getting circumcised because here in America women seem to prefer it. I know there is some loss of sensitivity, but it really seems like there is a general cultural preference. Jelqing uncircumcised is very ‘frictionless’ for me. I think this is good in so far as preventing injury, but intuitively I would assume that there is less ‘scheduled trauma’ with its resultant microtear formation.
-With regards to dry vs wet jelqing, is there any data from here about which is more effective? How about which has more injury? (I would assume dry is more effective but also has a higher injury rate. When I wet jelq, things get so slippery that I feel like I’m not making any scar tissue whatsoever).
-Has there been any grouping of data as far as the type of lubricant used. I know coconut oil and aloe might help prevent injury, but also would limit inflammation which I think must be necessary on some level. CBD oil is anti-angiogenic, so I would guess this would be a poor choice. But this is all inductive reasoning. Is there any objective info out there?
-Do younger people have better gains than older (a la working out) or do scar tissue/microtears form more easily as you get older? Has the data on the site been stratified by age? How about by frequency of jelqing session?

Sorry if these questions have been answered already — I tried the search function but came up with tangential answers at best.

A great question. Like you I am uncut so jelqing wet doesn’t feel to hard especially when oiled. Dry jelqing you do have to be more careful and you are doing much less of them. I look forward to hearing what men who have been at TP for years think.

Jelqing wet or dry is more of a preference thing.

I personally wet jelq as it is easier on my skin. I use olive oil, straight from the farmer, and have had no problems with skin irritation. I’ve event read that it’s a good lube for intercourse, and is vagina friendly. ;)

I’m uncircumcised as well. I’m not sure where you got your information about American women, but I’ve screw women from all 4 corners of the planet, and when they were bent over, touching their toes, none of them seem to be complaining about the mud flap at the end of my penis.

Don’t let any bastard near your penis with a knife, unless it’s medically necessary… and don’t ask a surgeon if it’s necessary, they make their money chopping bits off.

There’s a few guys floating around at Thunders working on foreskin regeneration. I’m sure if you ask them, it’s a lot easier to keep it attached to your body in the first place.

Even if it’s true about American women, (which I doubt), wouldn’t you feel silly for going through all that pain, to find out your future wife prefers a foreskin. And don’t even mention the risk of infection, or if the surgeon slips with the knife… :eek:

Don’t fuck’n do it!

P.S. Welcome to Thunders. :)

I often wonder if exercises for uncut guys should be the same because alot of these things i find are hard to perform or feel like nothings happening, also i can’t comment on the american women preferance but over here it is almost the complete opposite with cut men being rarer, i do however think it is a non issue, for example does a vagina have to look a certain way to you even if you are attracted to the woman? is the size of her vulva really an issue if shes beautiful and you enjoy spending time with her?
