I just pulled my foreskin back for the
first time (I'm 18 ). In the past I had
never done it before because I thought the
skin was going to tear, but it didn't;
there was no pain. However, the foreskin
seems to be too tight to go back over the
head of the penis. Is the foreskin
supposed to go back over the head or is it
supposed to stay behind the head?

Yes, it should go back over the head of
the penis (when you're not erect) to cover
it. The meatus (head) is an internal
organ (mucous membrane), just like a
woman's clit (or like your eyeball), and
the foreskin is like your eyelid (or a
woman's clitoral hood).
Gently pull it back down to cover the head
after bathing or masturbating. The meatus
needs to be protected from rubbing against
clothing etc. and the foreskin keeps it
clean too.
Don't ever force it further than is
comfortable to do so. Also, don't pull it
back and clean with soap. If you want to
clean underneath, just slide your foreskin
back in the shower, rinse under the warm
water, then slide it back. If you have
any irritation or smegma buildup (i.e.
from being too rough with it) a soak in
the bath will do wonders.

To clear some things up that peice of
stringy skin is perfectly normal is not an
abnormality in anyway (i spent a few years
thinking it was )
As for the skin the first few times it
goes back it wants to stay there if you
pull it back every morning to wash your
penis in the shower in a few months it
will be nice and loose and will go up and
down without that tight feeling
