Abstract
A survey of the 35 female and 42 gay sexual partners of circumcised and gen itally intact men, and a separate survey of 53 circumcised and 30 genitally intact men themselves, indicated that circumcised men experienced signific antly reduced sexual sensation along with associated long-lasting negative emotional consequences.
