== Damages ==
The [[foreskin]] is the primary erogenous functional part of the [[penis]]. The functions are classified as <b>protective functions</b> that provide physical protection, <b>immunological functions</b> that provide protection from disease, <b>sensory functions</b> that provide stimulation, and <b>sexual functions</b> that aid sexual intercourse. The excision and [[amputation]] of the foreskin by wrongful circumcision irreversibly destroys these functions . subjects the patient to severe [[pain]], and produces significant psychic and physical [[trauma]].
[[Re B and G (children) (No 2) EWFC 3| Sir James Munby, a prominent British family court judge, said that circumcision produces "significant harm".]]
