Circumcision, Human Rights, and Ethical Medical Practice
The Humanist, May-June 1999 - "The AAP "Circumcision Policy Statement" continues, in
effect, to endorse, whenever parents so choose, a concept that our common law condemns. This
becomes particularly onerous when the beneficiary of this "forcible extraction" is an
unknown future person where the incidence of alleged future diseases has been acknowledged by the
AAP in the same statement to be insufficient to justify the application of routine
circumcision."
