A member asked:
Is it true that all of a man's sexual nerve endings are hacked off during circumcision?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Interesting comment: The nerve endings that provide sensation to the skin that is removed is gone.Why would it remain?If you had an extra finger on one hand and had it removed would you want the sensation of that structure to remain ?All of the nerve endings that supply the penis itself and the remaining skin remain including any "sexual" endings.
