"One very interesting omission in all of this discussion is the omission of masturbation from any discussion of pleasure in the media, official medical statements, and the above mentioned study in Africa. We hear, instead, only about sexuality with two people involved. This omission is important to note, as the roots of male circumcision are found in a response to the dangers of masturbation which became the focus of intense medical concern in the 19th century. Is it possible that we, in this omission, are still following the lead of Victorian thoughts of sexuality, despite our belief that we no longer find harmless, solitary forms of sexual pleasure immoral?"
"We may find today that this omission of masturbation from discussions of pleasure facilitates the idea that there is no sexual loss from circumcision. This goes quite well with Victorian standards of appropriate sexual pleasure! Supposedly, masturbatory pleasure should also have been liberated in a rejection of Victorian morality, and yet, this is not the case when society goes about accounting the effects of circumcision on sexual pleasure."
