  • Wer zu erst kommt - und Mami hat Vorrang

    Es ist weder die Entscheidung der Mutter, noch des Vaters, noch beider zusammen. Es ist die Entscheidung des Babys. Das Baby will intakt bleiben. Darauf ist bei ihm alles programmiert. Deswegen strampelt es, deswegen schreit es. Ältere Kinder wollen auch in aller Regel intakt bleiben. Es ist selten, das sie sich mit Absicht selbst verletzen/verstümmeln, und wenn, dann ist es ein sehr ernste Krankheitszeichen.
    Eltern haben normalerweise einen Schutzinstinkt gegenüber ihren Kindern.
    Und das ist das wundersame an der "erblichen Kindsverstümmelung" - das dieser eigentlich starke Reflex ausgehebelt wird, der ewige Täter-Opfer-Kreislauf. Nach dem Motto: "man muss manchmal auch grausam sein".

  • Die große Verarsche in Afrika

    A Qualitative Study on the Low Utilization of Male Circumcision Services in Kwaluseni, Swaziland

    Alfred Khehla Wayne Adams

    Zitat

    The DHS (2006) of Swaziland also reported that HIV prevalence among circumcised men is 22% and 20% for uncircumcised men. It is argued that this was probably due to the fact that those who were circumcised had not removed their entire foreskin as it is done in medical settings. I find this explanation not credible. In Swaziland, the so called ‘bush circumcisions’ are extremely rare. MC is mostly offered in medical settings so the majority of those who were circumcised were circumcised by medical professionals and they normally remove the whole foreskin.

    Zitat

    Findings from the 18 countries with data present a mixed picture of the association between male circumcision and HIV prevalence. In eight of the countries (Burkina Faso, Cambodia, Côte d’Ivoire, Ethiopia, Ghana, India, Kenya, and Uganda), HIV prevalence is higher among men who are not circumcised, although the difference between circumcised and non-circumcised men is slight, except in Kenya, where the difference is substantial (HIV prevalence of 11.5 percent for non-circumcised men compared with 3.1 percent for circumcised men). In 10 of the countries—Cameroon, Guinea, Haiti, Lesotho, Malawi, Niger, Rwanda, Senegal, Tanzania, and Zimbabwe—HIV prevalence is higher among circumcised men.

    Zitat

    Cumulative probabilities of female HIV infection at 24 months were 21·7% (95% CI 12·7-33·4) in the intervention group and 13·4% (6·7-25·8) in the control group (adjusted hazard ratio 1·49, 95% CI 0·62-3·57; p=0·368) (Wawer et al. 2009). From this trial, it means that MC increases the probability of male to female HIV transmission if the male is circumcised while HIV positive.For some reason, results from such studies seem to be obfuscated and MC campaigns in Swaziland do not warn women about this. I find this ethically wrong.


    Zitat

    The authors concluded that “among uncircumcised men who intended to get circumcised in the future,72.4% intended to get circumcised in the next 12 months” (PSI 2010:6). I argue that their study suffered from desirability bias.
    PSI is arguably one of the leading NGOs in the country in providing MC and other HIV prevention interventions.

    Zitat

    Also, in some cases PSI and other NGOs implementing MC have used incentives to lure males to come for MC.


    Zitat

    Even more worrisome, circumcised men were more likely to report a high number of lifetime partners. This indicates that this feeling of security is transformed into dangerous practices.

    Zitat

    Since most of the circumcised men stated that MC actually decreases their sensitivity during sex, they argued that there were other ways to improve their sex life. These strategies ranged from using lubricants during sex, trying different sex positions and not using condoms for better sensitivity. According to both circumcised and uncircumcised men, the penis head gets harder and consequently less sensitive. The notion that the penis head gets keratinized (Dinh et al. 2010) sparked more response from the uncircumcised men. An uncircumcised male who had just completed his high school education said:
    Those that are circumcised say that in bed it is good for the woman to sleep with a circumcised man. But for you as a male it is not nice. This means you are doing it for the woman. You know as a guy the foreskin can play tricks on you and you ejaculate quickly before the woman reaches climax. So why is the foreskin removed if it helps during sexual intercourse? So without the foreskin it means that you just insert the head and it takes a long time to sense her and then ejaculate.

    Zitat

    Yes I would agree with that. I now take longer to ejaculate. And sometimes you can end the sex session while you have not even ejaculated. I am talking through experience and this is painful (a painful experience). Sometimes by the time you finish you find that the woman is already too tired because of my delayed ejaculation. So I would say that the foreskin has a role during sex. My main complaint is delayed ejaculation or not ejaculating at all.


    Aber dann:

    Zitat

    But I do not regret too much because I am safer from STIs and I can now easily clean myself.

    1. Gefährlicher Irrglauben
    2. 2-4 Sekunden pro Tag einsparen, ist das der Bringer?

    Zitat

    A friend of mine lied to me and he said after getting circumcised I would enjoy sex better. Also, the MC Ambassador was telling us that you would enjoy sex better after sex. But now it (penis gland) is almost like rubber and there is no longer that feeling when entering the female.

    Zitat

    People have these questions and they accuse MC proponents of not telling the truth about circumcision and only painting a good picture about it. This clearly shows that biomedicine lacks information in this part.


    Ab Seite 49 sind da auch ein par grauselige Bilder von Komplikationen.

    Zitat

    Most participants (both males and females) seemed to have suspicions regarding HIV interventions. They reported that HIV had become a big business and saw interventions such as MC as part of that business.

    Doof sind sie nicht, die Swasis.

    Zitat

    To my surprise, most of my findings were not in harmony with the literature reviewed. For example, fear of loss of sexual pleasure was not found in most literature reviewed in this study.

    Das wundert mich überhaupt nicht. Was den Verstümmelisten nicht in den Kram passt, wird unterdrückt.

  • EMLA cream should be used judiciously

    Zitat

    This case stresses the importance of adherence to instructions and appropriate follow up when prescribing medication even for topical use.

    Instructions? Emla hat gar keine Zulassung für Vorhaut-Amputationen!

    Zitat

    EMLA cream should be used judiciously due to its possible risk of immediate allergic reaction.

    Also besser ganz ohne Minimal-Betäubung? Offenbar, denn man hat ja gewartet, bis die Schwellung zurückging - und damit auch die sowieso unzureichende Wirkung von Emla.

    Zitat

    The risks of the anesthetic chosen should be carefully weighed against its benefits, seeing as the whole procedure as customarily performed, can be completed in 10-15 seconds under experienced hands. This is what raises debate over the necessity of a transient anesthetic effect.

    Aha, Nachtigall...

  • Wer zu erst kommt - und Mami hat Vorrang

    Zitat

    Mt. Sinai in New York.

    A worker who preferred to remain unnamed was kind enough to answer. The following is paraphrased, not quoted.

    In the case of a dispute between mother and father as to whether a child is circumcised when there’s evident disagreement, paperwork takes precedence. Approval for the procedure requires the signature of one parent and a witness, typically a hospital staff member. Should either parent be the first to bring the paperwork to the desk to have the procedure performed, once it is witnessed by a hospital staff member, this will take precedence. In the case of an obvious disagreement (where two people are arguing before the staff member) the mother’s choice is likely to take precedence.

  • die taz übernimmt mal wieder unkommentiert Verstümmelungspropaganda - das würde ihr sicher nicht passieren, beträfe es Mädchen und Frauen

    Zitat von Suchende

    ich habe eben gekuckt, ob unter dem taz-Artikel eine Kommentarfunktion steht - nichts gefunden.


    Da ist eine Bezahlfunktion. Vielleicht musst du erst zahlen, bevor du kommentieren darfst? ;)

    Ich vermute eher, die taz ist die "aber die MGM!"-Kommentare leid, sie passen nicht in das Konzept (Frauen- vor Männerrechte, Multikulti-über-alles) der taz.

    Sonst könnte man ja glatt einiges dazu vorbringen:

    Zitat

    “I have problems with circumcised men because they do not want to use condoms. They always argue that because they have been circumcised they did not need to use condoms,” said the heavily pregnant Memory, who is also HIV-positive.

    Memory said even after disclosing her HIV status, they still insisted on sleeping with her without any form of protection.

  • Das Thema "Beschneidung" ist immer noch aktuell in den deutschen Medien

    Trotz aller Versuche, das Thema nach Verabschiedung des §1631d BGB unter den Teppich zu kehren - lt. Schnarrenberger sollte doch nun endlich Friede Freude Eierkuchen einkehren- die Medien geben immer noch keine Ruhe! :cursing:

    Köstlich der Sketch "Gerichtsverhandlung", bei dem die erstaunte Oberpleiser Weiblichkeit erfuhr, was sich so alles in der örtlichen Kreissparkasse abspielt. Yvonne Baltes, Birgit Landsberg, Monika Adams, Ulrike Binot, Gisa Schulte-Gläser, Britta Friedrich und Margret Schuster spielten mit. Dabei ging es um eine Anklage wegen "ritueller Beschneidung", sprich drei Frauen hatten einem Nicht-Rheinländer den Schlips abgeschnitten.

  • Buchveröffentlichung mit einem Beitrag von Jérôme Segal - Herausgeber: Prof. Matthias Franz: "Die Beschneidung von Jungen, ein trauriges Vermächtnis"

    Zitat von Wakankar

    Oder ist die Verzögerung des Abschlußberichtes so ungewöhnlich, daß sie in Zusammenhang mit Beratung und Verabschiedung des § 1631d BGB gestanden haben könnte?

    Timing ist alles, das habe ich bei dieser ganzen Entwicklung schon des öfteren gedacht. Z.B. auch bei der geänderten AAP-Empfehlung (passen zur Debatte im Bundestag) bzw. bei der Verzögerung der Veröffentlichung der Replik der europäischen Ärzte.

    Therefore, it commands all who glory in the name of Christian, at whatever time, before or after baptism, to cease entirely from circumcision, since, whether or not one places hope in it, it cannot be observed at all without the loss of eternal salvation.
