      Dear #Interns: Notwithstanding what you may hear from your superiors, #foreskin is NOT a birth defect. What's a birth defect is aposthia: lack of a foreskin. Surgery on YOUR child patient INTENDED to mimic a birth defect is inherently #unethical. #mededhttps://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/denmarks-29000-doctors-declare-circumcision-of-healthy_us_58753ec1e4b08052400ee6b3 …

      So now they will just oppose the @WHO rulling on MC . And why not on FC.

      Because #WHO rightly opposes all #FGM, including Type IV pinprickings & scrapings. No child should be compelled to spread her or his legs to expose her or his genitals to cutting for reasons that aren't strictly therapeutic medical reasons. WHO support for #MGM is indefensible.

          They just oppose things without any research they just go by the sentiments of few people who must have been harmed due to negligence or any other reason and blaming the MC OR FC instead press for banning just because few suffered harm due to negligence .

          Pro-cutters, whether pro-#FGM or pro-#MGM, all believe the same ludicrous, unsupportable fallacy: "if you're outraged that someone else cut your genitals against your will, it must be for some reason other than the inherently harmful cutting of healthy, erogenous genital tissue."

          By negligence theory medical field should be banned first as negligence and success rate of all the procedures in the world is also there and failure rate is also there for the most successful procedure . Even the small cough and cold takes life but not MC OR FC not a single case

          Cutting of children's genitals is the ONLY surgery that is done w/out medical need OR informed consent of the patient. Your attempt to compare it to medical procedures that are either medically necessary or consented to by the patient is invalid. It has killed many children.pic.twitter.com/U4cN9jiRoX
