→Generally recognized benefits of foreskin restoration: Add text and citation.
# ''An end to tight and painful erections''. Increasing the quantity of skin results in longer skin and less tension when the penis is erect.
# ''Gliding mechanism'': the [[gliding action]] is beneficial because it facilitates [[masturbation]] and sex by reducing friction and providing a stimulating sheath that pleasurably slips back and forth over the [[glans]], thereby decreasing the need for artificial lubrication. This provides for more enjoyable intercourse for both partners and avoids problems with vaginal dryness.<ref name="warren1994">{{REFjournal |last=Warren |first=John |init=J |author-link=John Warren |last2=Bigelow |first2=Jim |init2=J |author2-link=Jim Bigelow |etal=no |title=The case against circumcision |trans-title= |language=English |journal=Br J Sex Med |location= |date=1994-09 |volume= |issue= |pages=6-8 |url=http://www.cirp.org/library/general/warren2/ |archived= |quote= |pubmedID= |pubmedCID= |DOI= |accessdate=2021-05-13}}</ref> The motion of the penile skin by the gliding action stimulates the nerves in the skin which are sensitive to motion and stretching.
# ''Feeling whole'': The circumcision scar has turned under the restored foreskin and is invisible. The presence of the restored foreskin causes one to look and feel whole, complete, and normal.
# ''Coverage of the glans'': this is beneficial because (a) it protects the glans from uncomfortably rubbing up against things, and (b) by keeping the glans moist and protected, it leads to dekeratinization, which subsequently increases sensation.
