Three Feet?

I am a faithful reader of The Rake, and thoroughly enjoy your columns.
[Sex and the Married Man, June] caught my attention because it deals
with the issue of erectile dysfunction and the drug industry’s solution
to everything—pills. I think you are missing a key issue in this
article. It is proven that the absence of a male foreskin has
ramifications that America is only recently beginning to understand.
When you cut off over three feet of veins and arteries, as well as
twenty to fifty thousand nerve endings, you are going to have problems
with your penis. It was not meant to function properly without a
foreskin. While I do believe that psychological issues play a role
here, the key factor is that circumcision destroys, denudes, and
otherwise does great harm to male sexual function.
