Banners Questioning Routine Infant(ie Forced) Circumcising

For the ones in this video, you can find most of them here: http://tinyurl.com/2a9ucmx

"I am the father of a circumcised son, unfortunately he is one of those little boys in which "no reliable statistics" are known, he suffered complications from surgery. A hospital-born infection entered at the circumcision site, the result was seizures and profound brain damage. I'll watch my son go to be a man in a wheelchair, he does not speak, he does not see. Dr. O failed to address the real benefit of circumcision; it's parked in the circumciser's driveway. Today circumcisers have the audacity to charge $350 for a fifteen minute procedure, one hour's work will make monthly payments on their BMW. Medical insurance groups are wisely dropping the procedure from their health plans. The mutilations will stop when we TAKE THE PROFIT OUT OF CIRCUMCISION." From L.T Ohio

"Surprise, we cut off part of your penis too!"

I personally had my perfectly normal, functional, significant and beautiful foreskin amputated at age 9 years, during a "routine" tonsillectomy was not forewarned that my penis would be involved in the surgery. I did know, and consent to the tonsillectomy, and it was supposed to limit my severe and painful earaches. It did not limit my earaches. I awoke in the hospital with a huge bloody dressing to my penis. I was horrified, humiliated, and felt anger, sorrow and deep personal loss. I now feel that I was raped, or at least sexually abused. I was unable to wear underwear for the whole summer. Any cloth or touch to the tender glans was painfully sensitive. I was left with ugly skin tags, skin bridges and emotional scars which remain with me nearly 30 years later. To this day I am apprehensive if anyone sees, touches, or becomes intimate with my penis. I have had a lifetime of inability to form a sexual relationship. From D.S. Kansas

Hospital Pressure

"It seems that a few hours after my friend Deb's delivery and while she was still sedated a nurse came into her room and told her that she had forgotten to sign a consent from regarding her baby. She took the paper and fortunately was able to read and understand it before she signed it. It was a consent form for circumcision. She informed the nurse that she had not forgotten to sign it. She and her husband had refused to sign it because they did not want the surgery performed on their son. The nurse then asked, "Don't you want your baby to be normal?" Deb said she told the nurse, "Yes, we want our baby to be normal, that is why we do not want his healthy normal body violated and I would suggest that you do some reading and research on what is and what is not normal in the care of an infant male." Can you imagine, just how close this came to violating their wishes. It makes me wonder how often this might be a standard rather than an exception". From M.V. New York

Billions, google "foreskin function". You Americans are circumcision fetishists. European men are glad to have the full complement of erogenous nerves that Nature allocated to us.

The circumcised penis is clearly disfigured. The penis head is a membrane. Membranes are designed to be protected by a covering.

Besides being richly innervared itself, the foreskin preserves the sensitivity and softness of the glans. So, circumcision really represents a "double whammy" against the penis.

Good for you for speaking up. I nearly cried. We did not circumcise our son.  It's his right to choose.

1. I'm glad that I'm not a man

2. I'm glad that I'm not religious

3. I'm glad that I wasn't born in USA

4. I'm glad that I watched this video!

I'm sure it traumatizes those babies who were born as their parents property. Poor babies! No wonder some American guys act terribly insane in bed and in relationships!

@angelpsw2004 For some baby boys, circumcision is a death sentence!

[berkawoo]

The anti circumcision movement has to do a much better job at taking the medical establishment to task. They have chosen to seek easy profit, be unethical and violate the oath to "first do no harm". For more than 7 decade they have practiced medical fraud in the USA. These are talking points that have to be brought up on the internet and the YOUTUBE community. Routine infant circumcision started with medical establishment it has to end with them. Lack of Medical Ethics has to be questioned.

Instead of calling intact penises "uncircumcised", why don't we call those natural, and cut ones unnatural? It makes more sense, if you think about it.

Visit FOREGEN.ORG! A charity that will use stem cells to regrow your foreskin!

@MusmosDotCom especially if you're christian, jesus even banned it as circumcision was a jewish ceremony and was done after the exodus so that the jews could recognize one another and protect themselves from spies

[TheLegoConstructor]

i seriously don't know why you want to mutilate an infant, the whole idea seems unethical

[TanukiCoast]

that was the most awful thing i've ever seen. i would NEVER do that to my son.

[DanteLacey21]

I'll tell you one thing if I ever have a son I do not want the first thing he experiences when he enters the world to be pain. Circumcision is an unnecessary procedure that innocent baby boy's should not have to endure.
