      It was in yesterday's Svenska Dagbladet that Birgitta Rydberg (fp), deputy healthcare county councilor in Stockholm, called on the doctors who oppose male circumcision to wake up.
      Äh, wie bitte? Wer schläft denn hier? Beziehungsweise hält sich die Augen und Ohren zu? Will die Schreie nicht hören?

      Two politically engaged doctors are now counter-attacking the claim that pediatric surgeons who do not want to circumcise little boys are "naive".
      Naiv? Und Birgitta Rydberg glaubt, dass sie den Durchblick hat? An ihren Genitalien ist vermutlich noch alles dran?
      Ist es denn auch naiv, Mädchen vor "Beschneidung" zu schützen? Gibt es nicht so etwas ähnliches wie Gleichberechtigung der Geschlechter?


      Two of those who criticize Birgitta Rydberg are the doctors Finn Bengtsson (m) and Peder Drott (m), who are politically engaged in the Riksdag and the County Council in Östergötland, respectively. They are adamant that it is unethical to circumcise young children who cannot give their consent.
      When the interests of children and adults collide, for example in the case of abuse or pedophilia, we naturally take the side of the children by criminalizing these behaviors for the protection of the children. To then consider the parents' desire for the removal of body parts as a societal right without interest in the child's consent therefore seems absurd, they write in their own debate article in Svenska Dagbladet.
