I can have a convo about FGM without talking about circumcision. I can have a convo about breast cancer without talking about lung cancer.

If there were a study with more than 10 people I would definitely think about this- esp for women wth BRCA gene

Wouldn’t it be better to look for non-invasive ways to prevent problems? I dunno about you, but the less parts of my children I have to have surgically removed, the better.

Relevant to the topic; science tries to outdated itself. The point of medical research is to come up with better, more effective solutions to problems. Do you not see it as problematic that “researchers” are trying to keep medicine 2,000 years in the past?

Researchers are supposed to be making surgery obsolete. Here we “researchers” trying to necessitate a surgery that just happens to be a controversial religious ritual. Do you not see a conflict of interest here?

What would you say of “researchers” saying that “research” “proves” that
#FGM has “benefits,” and that it ought to be this “choice” for parents? What would you say of people “researching” blood letting trying to “prove” it has “benefits?” That’s male infant#circumcision.#i2 -
It’s like, the rest of the world can see Americans have this obsession with male baby cutting. Sorry, you’re not fooling anybody. This “research” for the “benefits” of “circumcision” is self-serving

Forcible cutting a healthy child’s organs is a violation of basic human rights, male or female. It’s infuriating that people want to keep talking about
#FGM, an issue that gets plenty of attention, while male infant#circumcision happens 3,000x a day. Here. In this country.#i2 - 19 more replies

Here’s a hint; not a single respected medical organization recommends male infant circumcision. Not even our own
@AmerAcadPeds. All of them agree this is elective surgery. Any “benefit” can already be better achieved by non-invasive means.#i2#circumcision
