The excision of a perfectly healthy and normal tissue of the penisand sometimes the frenulum,usually at birth. The foreskin protects the glansfrom abrasions and keeps natural secretions (smegma, which acts as a lubricant and antibacterial)protecting the glans. The foreskin glides over the glans during sex or masturbation and stimulates the glans, frenulum, sulcus and the foreskin itself. The Americans adopted the practice from the British because they thought it prevented masturbation, which was thought as the cause for epilepsyand mental insanity.The Greeks deemed circumcision wrong because they believed the exposure of the glans was offensive.
