We have arrived in Denver for @IntactGlobalinc's press conference for a new lawsuit advancing the children's rights movement. Tomorrow morning we will introduce Huff v. Colorado, an equal protection lawsuit to get cosmetic childhood circumcision out of U.S. hospitals. Learn more: intactglobal.org/support/new…

"Life should not begin with an eighteen-year prison sentence." Strongly agree. I had the same thought when I was nine. But I disagree when the author claims to know most parents have good intentions. Most parents experience the need to punish children for being alive.

No one has ever banned infant male genital mutilation.

I remember when I was in middle school in the locker room and was being so confused that a lot of my classmates were uncut did a quick Google search and Boi I was furious

How many more deaths will it take before we protect boys from #circumcision? timesofisrael.com/eight-day-…

'Children's rights don't begin after the scalpel. They begin before it.' @DrHoenderkamp on reports the Green Party is considering a policy on banning circumcision.

I used to think the average person had common sense. Then I started seeing people argue that kids can’t consent to “gender-affirming care” because they’re too young to make permanent decisions about their bodies. And I thought, “Cool, so you’re against circumcision too, right?” That’s when I discovered that applying the same principle in a different context is apparently an impossible task for a shocking number of people. So let me get this straight: if a kid wants something done to their body, they’re too young to consent. But if you want something done to their body, suddenly consent isn’t important? Sooo… you can chop up your kid how you want, but not how they want? How about we stop chopping up kids altogether? It’s a pretty simple rule: don’t permanently alter a child’s genitals unless there’s a genuine medical necessity. The fact that you like a particular form of mutilation doesn’t magically make it not mutilation.

Circumcision is trending on X news again today. That's the third time in about a week. This time it's in relation to gender-affirming care for minors. x.com/i/trending/20658424879…

Something that should surprise absolutely no one. "Neonatal circumcision and prematurity are associated with sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS)" pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/article…

'I started to question why a healthy part of my body was removed without my consent' Profoundly moving testimony from a young man who was circumcised because of his father's Jewish fath 👇

People taking this the wrong way. I take it to mean, "Isn't a ban on beheading also considered an offense to religious freedom?" So, our Lord JC is suggesting a ban on infant circumcision is perfectly legitimate, the same way a ban on beheading is. Amen.

Fantastic interview by @NatSecSoc's Alejandro Sanchez on the UK Green Party's proposed anti-circumcision policy. By the sound of it, even right-of-center @NickFerrariLBC seems sympathetic to the left-wing Green Party's potential circumcision stance. Opposing non-therapeutic childhood genital cutting is something people from across the political spectrum can agree with. In the U.S., my non-profit @IntactGlobalinc is litigating equal protection cases to get cosmetic child genital cutting out of our hospitals.

🚨 Major study published in the European Journal of Epidemiology of 810,000 males found circumcised males had 53% higher rate of STIs compared to intact males. When parents ask about circumcision they deserve to see the full evidence. 🔗 Read the study: bit.ly/3lpjPSh

You're not prolife if circumcise your baby.

All forms of non-consensual cutting of children's genitals raise serious child rights concerns, and risk lasting sexual, psychological and physical harm – including death. Religious or cultural tradition should never place a practice beyond scrutiny. jewishnews.co.uk/green-party…

A good thread to have bookmarked.
