The '''pain''' of circumcision is extreme and traumatizing.Infant boys cry a special cry of distress. Ostwall & Peltzman (1974) noted:<blockquote>Our attention has been focused on the distress cry of infants. We have recorded numerous distress cries resulting from routine medical procedures such as taking blood samples and minor surgery such as circumcision. The distress cry is louder, longer, and noisier than the hunger cry. In also tends to be irregular, with more interruptions and gagging.<ref name='ostwald1974">{{REFjournal |last=Ostwald |first=Peter F. |init= |author-link= |last2=Peltzman |first2=Philip |init2= |author2-link= |etal=no |title=The cry of the human infant |trans-title= |language= |journal=Scientific American |location= |date=1974-03 |volume=230 |issue=3 |article= |page= |pages=84-90 |url=https://www.jstor.org/stable/24950031 |archived= |quote= |pubmedID=4812887 |pubmedCID= |DOI=10.1038/scientificamerican0374-84 |accessdate=2021-06-21}}</ref></blockquote>
