Seine Einstellung der Beschneidung gegenüber ist höchst kritisch:
A comparison between the different forms of male and female circumcision proves that the slightest male circumcision is certainly more harmful than the slightest female circumcision and that some male circumcision forms are more harmful than some female circumcision forms. Western intellectuals, activists and politicians do not hesitate to attack the Africans without any restraint or respect for their feelings, probably to show their “moral” superiority. They forget an important element: without abolishing male circumcision, it is impossible to abolish female circumcision.
Male and female circumcisions are certainly religious and cultural practices that impose themselves on communities. But they are also practices that touch the individual who is generally a minor without medical reason. While communities have a right to perform religious and cultural acts, they must respect individual rights, mainly the right to adhere to religious beliefs and cultural customs, the right to physical integrity and life, the right to modesty, and the right to respect the dead (Jews and Muslims circumcise even after death). The question then arises what has priority: community or individual rights?
