I am 19 years old and have recently planned to have sex with my partner, having talked to her about it already i decided to practice putting on a condom for safer sex. During my attempts i always pulled my foreskin back as i am not circumcised, while pulling down the condom, the ring tends to get stuck in the foreskin making it nearly impossible to pull it down. I pull the foreskin right behind the apple even though this feel uncomfortable for me, is this too far down? Should i just slightly pull it down?
Any help would be appreciated

If your foreskin retracts naturally when you are erect, then it will be retracted when you put your condom on. Assuming that it doesn't naturally fully retract it is a personal choice. Do you masturbate with your foreskin forward? If so, then putting the condom on with the foreskin foreward will be fine. If you have sex without a condom (later in life!) then the foreskin will probably retract during the act of having sex, but with a condom on it will hold your foreskin foreward. If you decide to pull your foreskin back, then just be a bit more 'forceful' when rolling the condom down - it will go. Well done for taking a sensible attitude to sex and contraception. Hope this helps. John
Hey John, this really did help me out a bit.
Im 18 and ive decided to prepare myself by learning how to properly put on a condom. During an erection my foreskin does not retreat behind the apple, and I masturbate with the foreskin covering the head. So according to your comment above, I should simply put on the condom, leaving my foreskin in front?
I've tried twice or so to put on a condom my holding back the skin, but I just couldn't roll it down over the head (prolly cuz of all the slack)
dunno mate, im jsut a little nervous :/

I'm pleased my advice helped a bit. I think that you are very sensible taking the time to practice putting on a condom - as the chances are that if the first time you put one on was when you were in the act with a girlfriend it would not be put on properly. You are fine to leave your foreskin forward if it is more comfortable for you. It is sometimes worth trying different makes of condom, because you may find some easier to put on, and more comfortable. Well done again for being sensible, and the practice will help ensure that you're not quite so nervous when the time comes for real! All the dest, John
