Body pleasure is a term that appears to have been coined by the late James W. Prescott, Ph.D., in 1975. Dr. Prescott related deprivation of physical pleasure to expression of physical violence.[1]
The term "body pleasure" is understood to be pleasure experienced from stimulation of the erogenous areas of the body. Winkelmann (1959) identified the foreskin (prepuce) to be a "specific erogenous zone",[2] so it is a major source of body pleasure. Amputation of the foreskin by circumcision results in a deficiency of body pleasure in circumcised males.
Lloyd de Mause (1996) also observed the aggressive, more violent-prone personality that is more common in circumcised men, but he attributed the cause to early childhood trauma, which must include painful circumcision.[3]
The personality of circumcised men has been affected by both early childhood trauma and loss of body pleasure.
