Male Circumcision in Japan offers an analysis of the surgical procedure based on extensive ethnographic investigation, and is framed within historical and current global debates to highlight the significance of the Japanese case.
Male Circumcision in Japan provides an in-depth examination of anthropological and sociological developments in Japan which challenge the accepted biomedical view of male circumcision as a prophylactic measure. Adult male circumcision in Japan is largely commercialized as cosmetic surgery. Castro-Vázquez analyzes the structural factors and meanings embedded in male circumcision showing the social imagery and growing anxieties concerning changes in gender regimes and sexual mores in Japanese society Introducing the viewpoints of a group Japanese men and women to highlight the significance of penile hygiene to prevent disease, this book casts doubt on the relevance of male circumcision and contests the idea that women prefer the circumcised penis. Male Circumcision in Japan calls into question current globalizing campaigns to promote the circumcision of newborns, children, and adult males.
