	Erogenous Tissue Loss after Circumcision
		Transilluminated mucosa indicating the intense vascularity and prominence of the ridges of the `ridged band'.
		(Dehydration of the specimen exaggerates the spikiness of the mucosal ridges.)
		The `ridged band' may be key to the persistent mislabelling of the inner lining of the prepuce as `skin'; it is clearly visible on inspection of the retracted prepuce, it is continuous with the wrinkled true skin of the tip of the prepuce, and it looks like skin.

	Ridged band - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The ridged band is part of the foreskin.
		This band of tissue, which he called the ridged band, contains nerve endings called Meissner's corpuscles These nerve endings are arranged at the crest of rete ridges and, like the nipples and the soles of the feet, are sensitive to light touch and specifically stroking and fluttering sensations.
		We postulate that the `ridged band' with its unique structure, tactile corpuscles and other nerves, is primarily sensory tissue and that it cooperates with other components of the prepuce.

	Foreskin :: Prepuce :: Ridged Band
		Stretching of the ridged band triggers reflex or involuntary contraction of bulb muscles.
		In other words, the ridged band is "reflexogenic." Bulb muscle contraction may also be voluntary or willed to, for instance, end urination.
		Stretching of frictional penile skin directly affects the ridged band and its response to penile movement.

	Glossary of the Foreskin
		From the corona to the ridged band its surface is mucosa; the rest is skin, and it is lined with part of the dartos muscle.
		A triangular area of mucosa under the penis whose apex is the frenulum, whose sides are the ridged band and whose base is the junction between the inner and outer zones of the foreskin (the transition zone).
		Meissners corpuscles are concentrated in the peaks of the ridges.

	Sexual effects of circumcision - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Circumcision removes the ridged band at the end of the foreskin [17].
		John R. Taylor, a pathologist and a critic of circumcision, [18] observed that the ridged band had more Meissner's corpuscles - a kind of nerve ending that is concentrated in areas of greatest sensitivity [19] - than the areas of the foreskin with smooth mucus membranes.
		He also suggested that the gliding action, possible only when there was enough loose skin on the shaft of the penis, serves to stimulate the ridged band through contact with the corona of the glans penis during vaginal intercourse.

	Ridged band
		The ridged (frenar) band is part of the foreskin: the elastic tissue at the interface between the inner and outer foreskin.
		During erection it forms a band halfway down the shaft, all the way around.
		If the ridged band is too tight, making it unable to retract the foreskin over the glans, you have to stretch it.
