→Sensitivity and innervation of the glans penis: Revise citation.
In other words, in monkeys and apes, the [[glans]] is more sensitive then the foreskin. In humans, this is reversed, so that the foreskin is more sensitive then the glans.
An impressive study performed by objective Chinese researchers conclusively demonstrated that [[circumcision]] reduces the [[glans ]] sensitivity to vibration. "The test group were 1.97 +/- 0.71, 2.64 +/- 1.38, 3.09 +/-1.46 and 2.97 +/- 1.20 respectively before and 1, 2 and 3 months after circumcision, with significant difference between pre- and post-operation (P < 0.05)."(1)<ref name="yang2008young2008">{{REFjournal |last=Yang, |first= |init=D. |author-M., link= |last2=Lin, |first2= |init2=H., |author2-link= |last3=Zhang, |first3= |init3=B., & |author3-link= |last4=Guo, |first4= |init4=W.
