In my original blog of peaks-n-pulses I had been asking in one of many polls:
When masturbating, I prefer my ejaculation to be triggered thru ... [?]
I was – and am – kind of puzzled that just six (5%) out of 116 participants until now did select this choice: foreskin caressing! *
Puzzled, because the inner side of the intact foreskin is featuring some very exquisite tissue called the Ridged Band. It was Dr. John R. Taylor of the University of Manitoba who did some extensive research about this area of penile skin which marks the trigger-point for ejaculation; he also provided the name (Ridged Band). Before I stumbled upon Dr. Taylors research I was lucky enough to discover and explore my own ridged band and ever since I just love to trigger my first (of sometimes multiple) ejaculations.

Dr. Taylor cared to shed light on the function of the Ridged Band. Other scientists, like Morris L. Sorrells et al., were experimenting on circumsised and intact cocks to find out which areas of our magic wands were most sensitive to touch and pressure, and if there are any differences between cut and uncut guys. I think their results are most revealing. Look at a graphic representation of their findings. But first I need to give you a brief explanation of their experiment:
Sorrells and others enlisted 159 men from the San Francisco Bay area (USA), 91 of them circumcised, and conducted touch-sensitivity tests, using instruments that press with calibrated hairs, on 11 or 17 different places on their penises. The men could not see where they were being touched.

They found that the most sensitive part of a circumcised penis is on the scar in the middle underneath (19).
But several places on the foreskin (3, 4, 13, 14) are more sensitive than that:

The glans (8, 9, 10, 11) is the least sensitive part of the penis, contrary to a common claim, but where it is covered by the foreskin (8, 11), the glans of the intact penis is more sensitive than the circumcised.
This proved that circumcision removes the most sensitive part of a man's penis.
Back to Dr. Taylor. He found that (quote):
The ridged band is a zone of strongly ridged or corrugated tissue normally hidden from view just inside the tip of the foreskin. Large bunches of coiled nerve endings known as “Meissner’s corpuscles” (also called “genital corpuscles”) are concentrated in the peaks of the ridges. The ridged band was first described in 1996. There is no other structure like it on the human body.
And:
The ridged band readily expands and contracts and is obviously designed to detect stretching forces. When penile shaft skin tugs on the ridged band, the special “genital corpuscles” in the peaks of the ridges detect movement and trigger ejaculation. Stretching of the ridged band may also trigger and sustain erection (this all via reflex or involuntary contraction of 'bulb muscles' enclosing the bulb or root of penis (BC)).
So, if you are intact don’t hezitate to explore your ridged band and enjoy what it triggers in you!

You can find a web-page with information on the foreskin (and its abuse/removal) here.
And take a look at this photo of a retracted foreskin with labels showing the different skin-parts and other penile features. The penis is a complex tool with its sensitive skin being the moving part of it!
