A number of studies have looked at the question of whether sensitivity of the glans is affected by circumcision.
Masters and Johnson (1966) reported: "Routine neurologic testing for both exteroceptive and light tactile discrimination were conducted on the ventral and dorsal surfaces of the penile body, with particular attention directed toward the glans. No clinically significant difference could be established between the circumcised and the uncircumcised glans during these examinations."<ref name="masters1966">{{REFbook
