In 2011, [[Morten Frisch]], {{MD}}, {{PhD}}, a professor of sexual health epidemiology at [https://www.ssi.dk/ Statens Serum Institut] in Copenhagen and at [https://www.en.aau.dk/ Aalborg University] 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>Frisch M, Lindholm M, Grønbæk M. [http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/21672947 Male circumcision and sexual function in men and women: a survey-based, cross-sectional study in Denmark]. ''Int J Epidemiol'' {{FrischM LindholmM GroenbaekM 2011 Oct;40(5):1367-81.}}</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

In particular, Brian Morris, along with [[Jake H. Waskett|Jake Waskett]] and [[Ronald H. Gray|Ronald Gray]] made extensive, obstructive peer-review comments in a review which included serious insinuations of racism and amateurism.<ref>Morris BJ, Waskett JH, Gray RH.

''Int J Epidemiol'' 2012 Feb;41(1):310-2 [http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/22422464]</ref> According to a letter of appreciation written by [[Morten Frisch ]] to the editors of the International Journal of Epidemiology for the publication of his study, Frisch was informed by a colleague that Morris used his mailing list to enact a campaign to write critical letters to the editors of the International Journal of Epidemiology. <refname="Frisch reply 2012">{{REFjournal |last=Frisch |init=M. |author-link=Morten Frisch |title=Author's Response to: Does sexual function survey in Denmark offer any support for male circumcision having an adverse effect?
