I have no experiences with foreskin, but how I reconcile it myself as a non-foreskin Jew is by equating my menstrual cycle with the foreskin. To me, my menses is 'the covenant of the blood' and also a primal signifyer (symbolically at least) of being to sustain the Covenant of Abraham through procreation. I'm sure one can poke holes in my 'hypothesis' but it helps me. It helps me in constructing my profound sense of covenant, it helps me appreciate my cycle and appreciate mikvah.

Just my two cents :)
