I want to go to birthright but I’m uncircumcised… will this be an issue?

My parents grew up in the 1970s, so they were around for the “pro-foreskin” sexual health movements that emerged during this time. Though they are Jewish, they elected not to circumcise me at birth, because of its untoward implications.

At 19, I’m probably at the most devout level of my faith I’ve ever been. I’m studying comparative religion at community College, and want to go on birthright during the summer. However, I am scared that the truth will come out at some point.

I keep having anxious dreams where I’m at a Waterpark in tel Aviv, or swimming in the dead sea and my swim shorts come down. Everyone sees my penis, and they act rude to me the rest of the trip for being a gentile, though I’ve been practicing since I was born.

I’m torn, I don’t want to lose my foreskin but this trip means a lot to me. Any advice would be appreciated.

Tldr: uncircumcised jew, will birthright be a problem?
