The psychological injury of male circumcision has been fairly well explored in recent years, but comparatively little has been done to document the effects on society when nearly all men have suffered child circumcision.

James W. Prescott (1975) believed that circumcision caused sensory deprivation and loss of body pleasure, which he claimed results in high levels of violence.[1]
