Longer foreskin is favored, starting with the ancient Greeks,[1] by many men.
The foreskin in ancient times
According to James DeMeo (1989), male circumcision (MGM) originated in northeast Africa before the start of recorded history.[2] The Hebrews learned about circumcision durng their stay in Egypt.[3] Moses was not circumcised and did not require circumcision, however Joshua did require circumcision, so the males were circumcised when they camped at Gilgal, just west of the Jordan River.[4]
Later, chapter seventeen was inserted into Genesis to cover the institutiion of circumcision.[5]
