The foreskin is a fold of skin that covers the end of the penis. The foreskin protects the head of the penis when the penis is not hard. Most mammals (animals with fur or hair) have foreskin.

The foreskin is attached to the penis by the frenulum but it can move. When the foreskin is moved (pulled) back you can see the head of the penis. Some boys cannot pull back their foreskin until they are many years old.

Most adult men can pull back their foreskin, although some men cannot. Sometimes men who cannot pull back their foreskin get it removed. Removing the foreskin is called Circumcision.

Some cultures and religions remove the foreskin from boys. Some boys have their foreskin removed when they are babies. In some cultures boys have their foreskin removed when they are older.
