Intact America Launches Campaign to Change How America Thinks About MaleCircumcisionREMOVAL OF HEALTHY FUNCTIONING TISSUE VIOLATES MEDICAL ETHICS, HUMAN RIGHTS OFBABY BOYS WHO CANNOT GIVE INFORMED CONSENTNEW YORK, June 25 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- Parents, pediatricians and healthand human rights activists today announced the launch of INTACT AMERICA andits website -- -- to change how America thinks aboutmale circumcision graig nettles autographed baseball . The national campaign argues that painful and medicallyunnecessary surgery to remove healthy genital tissue from non-consenting babyboys violates medical ethics and human rights jeter autographed baseball . They were joined by Soraya Mire, the Somali filmmaker who is a global leaderin the fight against forced female circumcision."The same universal human right to an intact body that I have fought for onbehalf of women and girls must apply to boys as well, especially those tooyoung to make an informed decision about the integrity of their bodies," saidMire joba chamberlain . "How can it be wrong to surgically alter the genitals of a baby girlwithout her consent but okay to surgically alter the genitals of a baby boy?"The launch comes as the Centers for Disease Control considers whether torecommend circumcision based on African studies of adult males and theHIV/AIDS epidemic."Studies of adult men in Africa cannot be used to justify subjectingnon-consenting American baby boys to irreversible surgery that will removehealthy tissue from their genitals for the rest of their lives," saidGeorganne Chapin, Intact America's Executive Director. "Let young men makedecisions about their own bodies, when they reach an age to understand therisks and consequences.""Before subjecting their newborn sons to painful, risky, irreversible andmedically unnecessary genital surgery, parents should ask if they would do thesame to their daughters," said Chapin.Chapin was joined by pediatrician Dr.
Robert Van Howe, Clinical Professor atMichigan State University's College of Human Medicine, and his wife, Dr.Michelle Storms, a family practice physician and Assistant Professor at themedical school."The child is the patient, not the parent, and neonatal circumcision isdefinitely not in the patients' best interest," said Dr Van Howe "As anadult, I can say yes or no based on informed consent An infant obviouslycannot do that." Dr american league . Storms, who is also Research Director in the MSU Family Medicine ResidencyProgram, stopped performing circumcisions in 1988."I realized I was cutting off healthy tissue from a baby that couldn't sayno," said Dr Storms "I wasn't treating or diagnosing disease joe torre . It violatedeverything I was taught in medical school about my obligation to heal the sickand do no harm."Texas businessman Dean Pisani made a $1 million commitment to Intact Americaafter he and his wife, who did not know their children's gender before theirbirths, were pressured by Illinois doctors to perform a circumcision if theyhad a son."My wife and I did our research and could find no rational or persuasiveargument to subject a baby to surgery that had no medical benefit," saidPisani cc sabathia . "No doctor could substantiate the medical necessity to perform thesurgery derek jeter autographed baseball . The pressure was both inappropriate and indefensible."Male circumcision is the most commonly performed surgery in the United States,the only industrialized nation (other than South Korea) that continues tocircumcise a majority of boys for non-religious reasons."If circumcision were effective in preventing HIV infection, the U.S.'s highcircumcision rate would yield a lower HIV rate," said Chapin.
"But America'sHIV rate is higher than other industrialized nations with low circumcisionrates autographed baseball . The only reliable means of preventing sexual transmission of HIVremains abstinence or use of a condom."Approximately 75% of the world's men are not circumcised and remain intactthroughout their lives derek jeter signed baseball . Even in America, the circumcision rate has droppedfrom 85 percent to under 60 percent as parents learn facts that have long goneunexamined george steinbrenner . Intact America is promoting awareness of the male foreskin's valueas a normal, sensitive and functional body part, protecting the penis frominjury and contamination, and playing a role in sexual pleasure due to itsspecialized nerve endings and lubricating function.Doctors began routinely circumcising infant boys late in the 19th century tocombat alleged evils linked to masturbation . Claims that circumcision preventsvarious diseases -- including, recently, sexually transmitted diseases -- havebeen found to be mistaken or exaggerated. Most circumcisions, which take up to 15 minutes, involve strapping an infantto a molded board. In some cases, an analgesic is applied to the pubic area,but many are performed without pain control.
