Meissner's corpuscles: Difference between revisions

Winkelmann (1959) identified the [[Foreskin| prepuce]] and the [[glans penis]] (where Meissner's corpuscles are found) as ''specific erogenous zones''.<ref name="winklemann1959">{{WinkelmannRK 1959}}</ref>

Sorrells et al. (2007) used a Semmes-Weinstein monofilament touch-test to map the fine-touch pressure thresholds of the [[penis]]. The areas most sensitive to fine-touch were the tip of the [[foreskin]] the mucocutaneous junction, the [[ridged band]], and the [[frenulum]]. These areas correspond to the location of Meissner's corpuscles. (These areas are not found on the circumcised penis.)<ref name="sorrells2007">{{Sorrells etal 2007}}</ref>
