The movable, internally-lubricated, [[Ridged band| nerve-laden]] erogenous [[foreskin]] and its [[gliding action]] is an important aid to masturbation.<ref name="kimpang2007">{{KimDS PangMG 2007}}</ref> [[Intact]] males simply use their hand to glide the [[foreskin]] back and forth. It is ''not'' necessary to retract the [[foreskin]] while masturbating. If the foreskin is of adequate length, then the [[intact]] male will usually keep it forward for additional stimulation. Keeping the head covered by the [[foreskin]] also protects the sensitive [[mucosa]] covering the [[glans penis| head]]. The motion of the foreskin as in [[gliding action]] stimulates the nerves ([[Meissner's corpuscles]]) in the foreskin. Use of lubrication is optional for [[intact]] males. An informal online survey of intact and restored males in 2024 found use of lubricant is unnecessary and unpopular with almost no use of lubricant.<ref name="survey2025">{{REFweb
