If I was to go on TV with a pro-circumcision figure to promote @circmovie, who would you want to see me talk with?

#Tweetiatricians are you ready for your close-up? The director of@circmovie would like a#tweetiatrician to appear w/him on TV. Who's ready to defend@AmerAcadPeds 2012 Circumcision Policy Statement? Great chance to find out who is really#evidencebased & will#pukids1st#i21 reply 1 retweet 6 likes -

@circmovie shows#AAP's circumcision policy is unsupported by evidence, illogical, unethical & culturally biased - & rejected by most of the world's MDs for some or all of these reasons. Any#tweetiatrician concerned for AAP's credibility should do something about it. But what?1 reply 0 retweets 1 like -

#Tweetiatricians could accept the challenge here. Slight problem:#AAP doesn't have the facts, law, ethics or equities on its side. If you're not prepared to defend Type IV#FGM on a girl, your defense of#MGM on a boy won't get far. http://blog.practicalethics.ox.ac.uk/2017/08/does-female-genital-mutilation-have-health-benefits-the-problem-with-medicalizing-morality/ …1 reply 0 retweets 1 like -

Another option is just stay the course: continue ignoring the issue w/
#AAP's complete failure in its ethical duties to child patients & hope it goes away. Certainly don't show up to any debates. Just look how well that approach worked out for @repjoecrowley#tweetiatrician#i21 reply 0 retweets 1 like
3rd option: retire the #AAP's unethical circumcision policy & replace it w/one that respects all children's fundamental right to bodily integrity. As #Churchill said: "Americans can always be counted on to do the right thing…after they have exhausted all other possibilities."
