The troubled history of the foreskin

    Zitat

    A 2010 survey in the Journal of Men’s Health found that close to 70 percent of circumcised male physicians supported the procedure. An almost identical fraction of uncircumcised physicians were opposed. Of the eight members of the AAP Task Force behind the 2012 statement, all were circumcised and all were from the US, where newborn circumcision is the norm.

    Surprise, surprise! :D

    Indeed, as the history of female circumcision suggests, if male circumcision
    were confined to developing nations, it would by now have emerged as an in-
    ternational cause celebre, stirring passionate opposition from feminists, physicians, politicians, and the global human rights community. If routine medical
    circumcision didn't exist today, no one would dare to invent it.
