Changes

The results of a fascinating study conducted by Dr. [[Christopher J. Cold]] and Dr. [[Ken McGrath|Kenneth A. McGrath]] demonstrate that the human [[foreskin]] is an evolutionary advancement over the foreskins of other primates. The human [[foreskin]] is far more sophisticated and responsive, as their comparative anatomy studies prove. This is seen most clearly in the evolutionary increase in corpuscular innervation and simultaneous decrease in corpuscular receptors in the human [[glans ]] relative to the innervation of the foreskin and glans of lower primates.<ref>Cold CJ, [[Ken McGrath|McGrath KA]].

In other words, in monkeys and apes, the [[glans ]] is more sensitive then than the foreskin. In humans, this is reversed, so that the [[foreskin]] is more sensitive then than the [[glans]].
