I spent some time investigating all of my possibilities on SenSlips website. R.J. from Cambridge England, the voice of experience, was most insightful when saying, "...I am 70 and have regretted being circumcised all of my life, I have found the greatest benefit of the SenSlip is psychological, it makes me feel safe and more confident." While it is perfectly understandable for a man in the eve of his life to search for comfort and confidence in this product, needing such a device is absurd for a man in the prime of his life. Advertisers pressure men into subscribing to all sort of products (cough*) designed to secure their manhood. Before committing yourself to pay over a dollar a day for another unnecessary product think of the options. Reskin your confidence by going on an underwear shopping spree. A few good pairs of boxer briefs will keep things in place and comfortable, and it is something that a women will not mind looking at. Imagine being on a romantic date, when in the heat of the moment your partner reaches for 'you' and unexpectedly rips off your prepuce! It is a moment that will be hard to recover from. This blow could be softened only by the knowledge that in a few short minutes your penis will have to be adorned with another suit of armor. In the specific case where new underwear isn't stylish enough for you, and you don't want to wear a glorified condom all day, and you just HAVE TO HAVE your old self back, don't dispair. With todays medical technology, not even Aposthia can keep you from enjoying the full use of your – well, a – fully functioning foreskin. Foreskin restoration comes in several flavors, both surgical and non-surgical. For me, the most exciting, utilizes biological 3D printing technologies to design, print, grow, and implant custom foreskins. Digital penises are almost here! For proof, just watch CBS's Cutting Edge Video (3D segment at 2:58). All other options aside SenSlip, and their competitor ManHood, are here to give us hope. They give us the hope that if a man can restore the one part of himself that physically defines him as a man, there might be a chance for restoring the parts that emotionally define him as one too. It is important to have objects that can inspire hope, comfort, and pride in their users. Without them one can lose their place in the world. While they give use some foundation, they simultaneously expose and sometime exploit our deepest insecurities.
I learned many things on my SenSlip journey. Most of the things I learned came from SenSlip's compelling and informative website containing useful diagrams, testimonials, sizing charts, and a creative use of spelling and grammar. Although SenSlip answered most of my questions, they left me wondering about one thing: how does one cure those terrible foreskin phantom pains?
* Gillette & Schick, how many blades will be enough?
