Groups such as the [[Gilgal Society]], the [[Acorn Society]], and the [[Cutting Club]] openly admit to a morbid fascination with circumcision to the point of sado-masochistic fetish. These groups advertise that doctors are among their members. There are those on the Internet who discuss the erotic stimulation they experience by watching other males being circumcised, swap fiction and about it, and trade in videotapes of actual circumcisions.<ref>Christopher P Price.
