=== Attempts to block a research paper from being published ===
In 2011, [[Morten Frisch]], {{MD}}, {{PhD}}, a professor of sexual health epidemiology at [https://www.ssi.dk/ Statens Serum Institut] in Copenhagen and at {{UNI|Aalborg University|AAU}} in [[Denmark]], published a study, which showed an excess of orgasm difficulties in [[circumcised ]] men, as well as significantly increased frequencies of orgasm difficulties, pain during intercourse and a sense of incomplete sexual needs fulfillment in women with [[circumcised ]] spouses.<ref>{{FrischM LindholmM GroenbaekM 2011}}</ref>
This study was preceded by three other publications based on the same dataset, dealing with sexual dysfunctions in Danish men and women in relation to socioeconomic factors, health factors and lifestyle factors, respectively, which were swimmingly published without serious criticisms from peer reviewers in the two most prestigious US journals of sexual health, the ''Journal of Sexual Medicine'' and ''Archives of Sexual Behavior''. After adding the variable of male [[circumcision ]] status to the analysis, however, the study was met with extremely critical reviews of everything about the entire dataset.<ref>{{REFweb

Until the 26th of April, 2012, Morris's leaflet, "Circumcision A Guide For Parents", said it was published by Brian Morris & The Gilgal Society, with the society's address and logo.<ref name="wayback-gilgal-leaflets"/><ref name="guide4parents"/> As of the 26th of April, 2012, all references to the society are gone, along with a reference to Morris's "interest in circumcision".
Morris's papers are noted for the frequent citation of previous works by Morris and others of his clique. His co-authors are usually members of his clique. He openly publishes a list of his authors which are also members of the alleged medical organisation [[Circumcision Academy of Australia]], with most of them highly biased in favor of circumcision for several reasons.

Morris gets his friends and associates to review his articles to give them the illusion of having been impartially reviewed.<ref>{{REFweb
