**Caution folks, this video graphically shows male anatomy. It's educational in nature and not intended to be gratuitous. This may not be appropriate for children.**

This educational medical slideshow covers the development and functions of the prepuce(foreskin) from before birth through adulthood. There are no moving images in this documentary, only still pictures and diagrams from medical journals. The terminology used while professional is not incomprehensible to a lay audience.

Absolutely fascinating. Circumcision is nothing but child (and thus later, adult) abuse. I particularly like that one of the primary excuses for circumcision, that it's easier to clean, is disputed here in that cleanliness of the glans is one of it's primary functions (from an evolutionary standpoint, before we had showers).

What's ridiculous to me is how people have essentially been programmed to think that an uncircumcised penis is aesthetically unattractive. As in, the way that we are supposed to be naturally, has become unnatural and disgusting.
