Circumcision is unnecessary, unethical and unlawful. It is time to hold doctors, hospitals and medical organizations accountable.

Rooted in never-before-seen government records, THE NORMAL THING TO BE tells the full story of how a group of powerful circumcision enthusiasts turned a heavily-contested American norm into a global public health iniative, at the expense of children's rights. punchup.press/books/the-norm…

The medical "consensus" on circumcision was never as independent as it looked.
FOIA documents show a small group of advocates worked the system from the inside. A thread on what the emails revealed. 🧵

Circumcision removes 12.5 square inches of foreskin — roughly the size of an index card. go.nature.com/3PKvzk3 This isn’t “extra skin.” It’s highly functional sensitive tissue. Once it’s cut off, it’s gone forever. Do you agree this choice should belong to the person? 👍👎

For anyone seeing this and realizing what circumcision has taken from them: your feelings are valid, and we're working on a solution. Foregen is developing a regenerative medicine procedure to restore the foreskin in form, function, and sensation.

@DOGE is now looking at waste, fraud, and abuse within @CMSGov, which administers Medicaid. Write to DOGE@mail.house.gov now and urge them to end Medicaid coverage of infant circumcision!

We uncovered data showing that Medicaid was billed nearly $37 billion between 1999-2016 for non-therapeutic infant circumcisions. It is unlawful for Medicaid to be used on unnecessary treatment. End the funding for circumcision now! circumcisionisafraud.com/foi…

The desire to update the AAP's policy may have come from within the CDC. These emails show @PeterKilmarx prioritized Medicaid coverage after the AAP's 1999 policy led 16 states to drop it. So in 2007, the CDC wanted AAP to "change their recommendations." 1drv.ms/b/s!Ak3Qe-X3Jbyog58e…

Is this him on this panel of people ignoring the ethical quagmire of circumcision? Africa needs Prep, not mutilation. xitter.cf/PunchUpPress/status/17…
When confronted on this basic hypocrisy, the @UNICEF rep offered a self-contradictory answer, claiming she both agrees on human rights, but that this is also a matter of "risks v. benefits", and that the human right to decline treatment does not, in fact, belong to the child.

Here is a little window into how the medical literature can get biased by controversial opinions disguised as 'systematic reviews' for anyone interested. I'll walk you through an example. Take this highly cited review article in the flagship @jsexmed sciencedirect.com/science/ar…

Breaking News. New Hampshire Health & Human Services Committee passed HB1683 to stop state sponsored genital mutilation via Medicaid. It's a huge win at 14-6 in favor. The bill now goes to the entire House for a vote. Thank you @NHRepPhillips #circumcision #i2 #bodilyautonomy

New emails suggest long-time circumcision advocate, Daniel Halperin, worked with @Slate Magazine to get an article he evidently ghost-wrote, defending his own book, published. open.substack.com/pub/punchu…

US parents are shocked when they find out that hospital staff routinely trivialize the suffering of newborn boys undergoing the circumcision ordeal, and nurses are often under orders to openly deceive parents about their child's excruciating experience. @cutfraud exposes the lies

“Our findings suggest that newborns can integrate sensory and developing cognitive responses into coherent conscious experiences to understand the actions of others and plan their own responses.”

"Performing an operation on a healthy child crosses a line that physicians are not allowed to cross, no matter what arguments they might advance in favor of it."

This tweet promotes reckless mutilation of minors. From @PEPFAR's own report: "The ratio of [adverse events] to circumcisions performed is five times higher in EIMC than in MC of young adolescents, which in turn is about double the ratio in 15+ year-olds." state.gov/wp-content/uploads…
