[Poll] Penis Racing Stripes

[Littlebare]

How many of us men have a visible Penis Racing Stripe?
A Racing Stripe as defined for this Poll is a distinct darkened stripe of skin on the underside of the penis and sometimes continuing down the center of the scrotum, over the perineum to as far as the anus.
All men have a raised ridge of some degree that is not of a darker color. This does not count as a Racing Stripe for this Poll.
Please answer "Yes" to all questions that apply to you.

I'm going on 58-years-old and never noticed the stripe until now. It's not exactly something that would concern me. /infopop/emoticons/icon_confused.gif

Problem!

I can't see the results till I vote and of course I can't vote because I don't have a penis.

LOL!

I am not going to participate in your poll due to your self interest in male anatomy, and intactness of other males which is of little interest to nudist or females in this forurm.

The forum/topic has provided ample factual information and links on "Penis size, circumcision, and description of the 'raphe' which all males have. Do you really expect males in this forum to go out of their way to inspect their anatomy with mirrors and provide you with digital information as to pigment, color or shape or size of a slang object or male anatomy you refer to as slang.

I don't think the pole is of interest to others, and should be discontinued. Does it really matter to anyone the pigment or visual status of the male ?raphe? or if one has a foreskin or not?

I have an interest in anatomy, general knowledge and statistics, and I like to think I'm open-minded, but I'm more amused than anything.
Sorry about your situation, cyndiann, anyone got any helpful suggestions?

[NakedGary]

Good one Cyndiann!

Hey Cyndiann, I'll take it for you and vote NO on everything as Naturist Mark say's, then post a screen shot of the results....STAND BY....

Perhaps we'll start to see it in the "looking for a partner" columns, in amongst the "medium build, non-smoker, good sense of humour" things, Have, or Must Have, penis racing stripe!

[NakedGary]

Hey Cyndiann

This penis stripes poll is askewed or not very straight!

I voted NO on all ten.

#7 says 100% of the 7 poll voters voted YES

re: My stripe is less than .25" wide


Here is the real skinny: [Posted on this topic]

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The ridge or closure of the penile skin is known as the:

raphe
The "seam" up the underside of the penis (actually running all the way from the anus to the urinary meatus), where the urethra closed up before birth.

Thanks Gary!

[florida-david]

lighten up people, its just a silly fun poll. no need to get all twisted up. i did not know i had a slight darkened skin on the underside of my shaft, i find it interesting to learn new things about my body. not that i will be checking every male that i meet, but i never knew i had a darkening of the skin there. question #7 should be revised....

[fred950]

I'm with Florida-david. This is not about some kind of stripe-phobia, rather how well do you really know your anatomy. Also, like David I never notived it either.

Shortly after we became a couple, I encouraged Mary to explore every square inch of me, and she never noticed it until now.

[leshrac]

hey thats neat i never noticed before either; ya learn somethin new everyday!

My penis is also darker skinned on the lower half and light skinned (which is normal color for me) on the upper half. What is that called?

[Nude in the North]

Mine doesn't have a "racing stripe" but it does have a 440 Magnum, with Ram Induction, Dual quad's, Highlift Cam, and a 4 speed manual transmission.

[florida-david]

leshrac- that's called a fade, very fashionable in car window tinting a while ago. also very popular in custum automotive paint jobs. you are a custom dude----

as for the four speed, that's old hat now, you should get a five or six speed from a corvette or camaro, than that thing will really move out and get good top speed (and better gas mileage). now for me, i prefer a car less than 2000 lbs., five speed, dual over head cam 4, no turbo, with a limited slip rear and racing tires (wide not tall). only for the track. highway i prefer something less rowdy!!!

[Littlebare]

Thanks for all of the interesting responses to my poll. Isn't it interesting that we can still learn things about ourselves.
Keep that sense of humor working!

[greensunshine]

I don't have one either...so does that mean someone can vote "No" twice for me and them???

Maybe someone could Loan you theirs, just so you could vote.
I'd offer to loan you mine but I'm kind of attached to it.

Poll: Penis Racing Stripes
Question 1 of 10: I have a Penis Racing Stripe
Question 2 of 10: I am circumcised
Question 3 of 10: My Racing Stripe covers only the underside of my penis
Question 4 of 10: My Racing Stripe continues to the tip of my foreskin
Question 5 of 10: My Racing Stripe continues down over my scrotum
Question 6 of 10: My Racing Stripe continues over my perineum to my anus
Question 7 of 10: My stripe is less than 1/4 inch wide
Question 8 of 10: My Racing Stripe is over 1/4 inch wide
Question 9 of 10: I have always been aware of my Penis Racing Stripe
Question 10 of 10: I have just discovered my Racing Stripe as a result of the postings on this site

[TXK NUDE]

Actually, Question #7 doesn't allow for a "No" Answer. It actually forced me to answer "Yes" before I could view the results!

[nunne]

Nude in the North - but does it have a Mini, that's the latest.

[Rex]

Hi, TXK NUDE, good to see you enjoying the fun!
If your stripe is non-existant, then it is, by definition, less than quarter inch wide.
Anyway, anything is better, for a male, than asking NakedGary to post the poll results for you, and getting us all wondering.

[Naturist Mark]

My Penis Racing Stripe is non-pigmented, indistinguishable from surrounding tissue. Should I have it tattooed in order to look more normal?

-Mark

[hairyhomer]

Go fot it Mark and if it is not to painful maybe the rest of us will have it tattooed to look more normal! /infopop/emoticons/icon_rolleyes.gif

[maxx]

GENIS
Littlebare, I cannot beleive your genis that now I expect several women to walk up to me to fulfill your poll and check my stripe.
Hope everyone enjoys this for fun purposes
Maxx

[Littlebare]

maxx,
Does that mean you also have a stripe?
Keep us posted on how many women inquire about your racing stripe.
Most of the naturists I know are quite relaxed about their own bodies and the bodies of others. Your expectations on being asked about your racing stripe may lead to dissapointment and frustration. Don't get your hopes up.
Until now, I never knew of anybody being at all interested in my or anyone elses penis racing stripe.
The suggestion that the racing stripe may show up in the personals is also an interesting concept. Unfortunately only a few of us would even know what the ad was referring to, judging from most of the responses I see here. Maybe the education on the subject will travel farther than this BB.
We shall see.
Keep the comments and information coming. And thanks to all who have participated in the fun.

[Littlebare]

It is good to see that there is still interest in this poll and the other, original posted topic. More votes are coming in. Interesting results.

[nudenwv]

i have a seam that's visible but no racing stripe as you mentioned.

[topher97202]

Ha! Ya learn something new every day. I have one, but I've always thought it was related to how I was circumcised. I guess I'm not as unique down there as I thought I was. ;)

[five9]

I remember being much younger and being told by my cousin that it was a surgery scar because i was born a girl. I didn't believe him though and then later found out it was normal. Kinda funny story i guess =)

[Naturist Mark]

I just want to go on the record as being opposed to penis races. Don't care about the stripes.

[walter05]

Mark;

Now there will be men competing to see who has the biggest racial profile.

[NudePete]

Ummm...what about polka dots?

Just asking.

[Home Nudist]

Wait a minute. I have to get to a mirror..... OY ! :cuckoo:

[Nakednurse]

This whole conversation is very odd.:shrug:

[FreeinNJ]

This is very weird topic , since when do nudist focus on the penis ?

either way , yes I have a raised line from my forseskin to the back of my scrotum

Note the Old Old date of this thread: 01-25-2004, 10:42 AM

After the male is born the 'perineal raphe' [penis racing stripes] have no function other than being a visual line.

The resulting ridge of tissue is evident as the perineal raphe.

The perineal raphe extends from the anus, through the mid-line of the scrotum (scrotal raphe) and upwards through the posterior mid-line aspect of the penis (penile raphe).
It is observed as a noticeable line.
It is the result of a fetal developmental phenomenon whereby the scrotum (the developmental equivalent of the labia in females) and penis close toward the midline and fuse.

For further information and images see:

[pothole]

Well at least having a racing stripe is better than having a skid mark

[Naturist Mark]

This is very weird topic , since when do nudist focus on the penis ?

Among actual nudists it is a non topic. For some reason we just don't find much need to be talking about our willies.

Among many 'internet nudists' and speculative pre-nudists it is an overwhelming interest.

Partly that is just normal concerns and insecurity among men who are not experienced in nudism and wonder what to expect. Among others it is just their personal penis obsession.

We try to answer sincere questions promptly and respectfully. But when the discussions go on and on and on due to obsessions, it becomes time to mock. Don't take it personally.

[FreeinNJ]

I think we need to lump all these threads into one and sticky it at the top so people stop starting new threads on anything regarding this matter

Not a bad idea ... except that they will inevitably be called the "sticky penis pages".

[nekkidskier]

I have a racing stripe and fuzzy dingle balls, but no flames on the side or sponsor decals

[Ski Dude]

I have a stripe.
