Uncut explores the significance of the foreskin in contemporary culture
Uncut: A Cultural Analysis of the Foreskin takes an interdisciplinary approach to understanding the foreskin and its position in contemporary Anglo-American culture. From language to art, from religion to medicine and public health, Uncut is a provocative book that asks us to ask ourselves what we know and dont know about this seemingly small piece of skin.
The uncut penis is viewed by some as attractive or erotic, and by others as ugly or undesirable. Secular parents of male infants worry about whether or not the foreskin should be removed so their little boy can grow up to look like dad or to avoid imagined bullying in the locker room. Medical experts and public health organizations argue back and forth about whether circumcision is medically necessary, while intactivists advocate that removing an infants foreskin without their consent is mutilation.
Drawing on all these threads, Jonathan A. Allan leads us through the history and cultural construction of the foreskinfrom Michelangelos David to parenting manuals, from nineteenth-century panic over masturbation to foreskin restorationto ultimately ask: what is the future of the foreskin?
