==Introduction==
The [[circumcision industry]] would like parents and the public to believe that [[circumcision]] is psychologically benign and has no effect on the patient, therefore the information provided to satisfy the requirements of [[informed consent]] typically excludes any discussion of the psychological [[trauma]], injury, and effects of circumcision.<ref> </ref>
Some of the literature cited here will include certain articles of a psychological nature that appeared in medical journals.

|quote=Policy statements on penile circumcision have focused primarily on disease, dysfunction, or sensation, with relatively little consideration of psychological and psychosocial implications of the procedure. There has also been minimal consideration of potential qualitative changes in the subjective experience of sexual activity following changes in penile anatomy (foreskin removal) or associated sexual biomechanics.
