}}</ref> The incidence of [[circumcision of the newborn]] has been slowly declining ever since. This has resulted in ever-increasing numbers of adult males in the [[United States]] with an [[intact]] [[foreskin]], a portion of which are classifed as '''long foreskins'''.
These men are seeking more and more information about [[foreskin.]] . Unfortunately, it appears that most of the information provided about the [[foreskin]] is provided by [[Circumcised doctors| medical doctors]] who were [[circumcised]] as infantsannd who may profit from the performance of circumcision, so it frequently is inaccurateand contain [[bias]].
This article seeks to answer questions about '''long foreskins'''. Foreskins naturally come in a wide variety of lengths from very short to very long. '''Long forekins''' are in the normal range. Treatment or surgery is ''not'' indicated.
==Sex with a long foreskin==
The [[foreskin]] was provided by nature to facilitate sexual intercourse and the manually retractable '''long foreskin''' is not different. The [[gliding action]] eases penetration of the [[vagina]].
==Lengthening a foreskin==
A [[foreskin]] may be lengthened over time by the application of manual traction to cause [[tissue expansion]] by [[mitosis]]. It is a slow process. Ddication and perseverance are required.
Sexual intercourse with a non-retractable ''' long foreskin''' may require special preparation. See [[sex with phimosis]] for more information.
