The '''sexual effects of circumcision''' are now well documented. Studies have been conducted to investigate the effect of [[circumcision ]] ([[amputation]] of the [[foreskin]]) on sexual drive, erectile function, premature and delayed [[ejaculation]], sexual satisfaction, sexual sensation and penile sensitivity. Studies have also assessed whether [[circumcision]] affects [[masturbation]] or other sexual practices, and the degree to which a heterosexual woman's experience of sex is affected by her partner's [[circumcision ]] status. Cold & Taylor (1999) stated:
<blockquote>
The [[prepuce]] is primary, erogenous tissue necessary for normal sexual function.<ref name="cold-taylor1999">{{ColdCJ TaylorJR 1999}}</ref>
</blockquote>
Therefore, it appears that Masters & Johnson (1966) performed little or no testing on the [[foreskin| foreskins ]] of their few [[intact]] subjects and provided no useful information.<ref name="sorrells2007">{{Sorrells etal 2007}}</ref>
The inaccurate reports of Kinsey (1948) and Masters & Johnson (1966) have long distorted and minimized the sexual effects of [[circumcision]] and the loss of the [[foreskin]] in the American view.
