    i know this is a thing, but i really don’t understand the why. like, is it an aesthetics thing? is it something done as a sort quiet protest against the practice of circumcision as a whole? something else?

      Circumcision is abuse. Only rarely is it a medically sane practice. The glans basically becomes calloused, why would anyone want that?

      Foreskin restoration is a way to return to a more normal state, with a softer and more sensitive glans. That is the reason people want to restore.
