Substantial bodily harm is the result of every male circumcision.
Approximately 51% of the of erogenous adult skin and mucosa of the penis, including the ridged band and its Meissner's corpuscles, is irreversibly lost by each circumcision.[1] The skin has numerous protective, immunologiclal, sensory, and sexual physiological functions that cease to function after circumcision.[2] [3] Moreover, loss of the penis, while rare, is a real possibility. Suicide may be the eventual result.
Every victim of male circumcision incurs substantial physical and psychic trauma.
