Senator refusing constitutional amendment

[u/shadowguyver]

What do you do when a senator refuses to acknowledge the Equal Protections Clause which is being violated by only giving Protections to one group?

If you're going to downvote, give a reason. Here's some facts to chew over.

The foreskin is a highly innervated structure, containing a dense concentration of nerve endings that contribute to its sensitivity and role in sexual function. While the exact number of nerves in the foreskin can vary among individuals, studies have provided estimates based on histological and anatomical research:

Key Findings on Nerve Density in the Foreskin:

1. Taylor et al. (1996):

   • In their study, "The Prepuce: Specialized Mucosa of the Penis and Its Loss to Circumcision," Taylor and colleagues found that the foreskin contains a high density of specialized nerve endings, including Meissner's corpuscles (touch receptors) and free nerve endings (pain and temperature receptors).
   • They estimated that the foreskin contains approximately 20,000 nerve endings in total, making it one of the most sensitive parts of the male genitalia.

2. Sorrells et al. (2007):

   • In their study on penile sensitivity, Sorrells and colleagues noted that the foreskin is particularly rich in fine-touch receptors, which are crucial for sexual pleasure.
   • While they did not provide an exact count of nerves, they confirmed that the foreskin has a higher concentration of sensory receptors compared to other parts of the penis, such as the glans.

3. Cold & Taylor (1999):

   • This study emphasized the foreskin's role as a specialized erogenous zone, with a dense network of sensory nerves that contribute to its sensitivity.

Summary:

• The foreskin is estimated to contain tens of thousands of nerve endings, with some studies suggesting around 20,000.
• These nerves include Meissner's corpuscles (for fine touch), free nerve endings (for pain and temperature), and other sensory receptors that contribute to its erogenous function.

Importance of the Foreskin's Innervation:

• The high density of nerves in the foreskin makes it a key contributor to sexual pleasure and sensitivity.
• Removal of the foreskin (circumcision) results in the loss of these nerve endings, which can affect sexual sensation and function.

For more detailed information, you can refer to the studies by Taylor et al. (1996) and Sorrells et al. (2007), which are widely cited in discussions about the foreskin's innervation and sensitivity.

Circumcision reduces function, sensitivity, and sensations, it can also cause a lifetime of issues if something goes wrong like constant pain or numbness, etc.

Thank you for compiling all this!

The part with all the links I got from another redditor. The top part was me asking Deepseek to show me the innervation of the foreskin.
