Does anyone have the references handy for:

1) the study showing that circed men suffer from erectile dysfunction a decade earlier than intact men

2) something SHORT -- one link, not a page -- on hospitals selling foreskins to biotech companies for research and/or what biotech companies do with foreskins

TIA!

Are you thinking of this one?

It's a flawed study by Bleustein that attempted to show there was no difference in sensitivity, but curiously contained the statement:

"In the dysfunctional group, circumcised men (49 +/- 16 years) were significantly younger (P <0.01) than uncircumcised men (56 +/- 13 years)."

Cirp also has some commentary on it:
