CIRCUMCISION REFERENCE LIBRARY.
The Library is an online collection of abstracts, full text articles,
CIRCUMCISION - SEXUAL DYSFUNCTION.
Foreskin Sexual Function / Circumcision Sexual Dysfunction.
The human foreskin is highly innervated, and vascularized sensitive erogenous tissue.
It plays an important role in normal human sexual response and is necessary for normal copulatory behavior.
An understanding of this role is now emerging in the scientific literature.
Removal of the foreskin (circumcision) interferes with normal sexual function.
This page brings together, in one place, scattered material relevant to the study of the role of the foreskin in human sexuality, and the dysfunction caused by its amputation.

The penis and foreskin:
This page presents information that most parents are not aware of
at the time they make the circumcision decision.
Doctors usually do not provide this information.
If you are under 18, we recommend that you share and
discuss this information with your parents.
For a further look at this anatomy, including photographs,
visit Circumstitions (Hugh Young).
Hugh's site also includes an excellent animation to illustrate retraction.
Dr John R. Taylor, co-author of two medical anatomical papers
about the foreskin, explains the latest research
at the Ridged Band website.

LOSSES FROM CIRCUMCISION.
LOSSES FROM CIRCUMCISION.
[Circumcision removes several critical components of male sexual anatomy.]
Many people think circumcision removes nothing more than a little extra skin.
However, circumcision removes several critical components of male
sexual anatomy.
This list enumerates everything currently known to be physically lost
after circumcision.
Alongside these physical losses, it is important to remember that whenever
a child is circumcised, by far the greatest loss is his choice to make
decisions about his own body and his own sex life when he becomes an adult.

(NOT CIRCUMCISED)
Full penis length and circumference.
The "prepuce" (foreskin) constitutes 50% or more of the skin system of the penis.If unfolded and spread flat, the average adult foreskin measures 60-90 square
The "prepuce" (foreskin) constitutes 50% or more of the skin system of the penis.If unfolded and spread flat, the average adult foreskin measures 60-90 square
centimeters (10-14 square inches), or about the size of an index card.
The foreskin creates a visibly longer penis, especially when the foreskin extends beyond the head of the penis.
Also, the double-layered tissue of the foreskin engorges with blood during erection and creates a visibly and sensually thicker shaft and glans.
When the engorged foreskin retracts behind the coronal ridge of the glans, it often creates a wider and more pronounced "ridge" that many partners find especially stimulating during penetrative intercourse.
The circumcised penis appears truncated and thinner than a full-sized intact penis.

Phimosis.
(Tight Foreskin) Would have been the most common reason for recommending circumcision; these days the remedy is as simple as applying a topical (surface) steroid cream;
Betamethasone Cream 0.05%' ...is applied twice daily for four to six weeks.
[No radical surgery necessary!]
