The '''sexual effects of circumcision''' are the subject of some debatenow 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">{{REFjournal
===In the beginning===
The human [[foreskin ]] was once thought to have little or no sexual function. Sex researcher Alfred C. Kinsey (1948) placed no importance on the presence or absence of the foreskin.<ref name="kinsey1948">{{REFbook

The inaccurate reports of Kinsey (1948) and Masters & Johnson (1966) have long distorted the American view of the sexual effects of [[circumcision]] and the loss of the [[foreskin]].
