Oxford scholar @briandavidearp criticizes @CDCgov#circumcision guidelines saying: They portray risks & benefits in misleading manner, employs inadequate analysis of risk in benefit vs. risk, fails to consider the functions of foreskin
Circumcision causes permanent harm! Loss of healthy tissue, reduced sensation, psychological trauma, and lifelong consequences that babies never consent to.
Silence keeps this practice normalized.
Speaking up protects children.
One voice can spare another child the same harm.
Say it out loud. End the trauma.
Bodily autonomy isn’t optional. ✊
No one should have parts of their body cut off without their informed consent — not babies, not children, not anyone. Forced circumcision violates human rights and ignores the most basic principle of medicine: first, do no harm.
Raise your voice for those who can’t speak yet. Join the movement! #circumcision #bodilyautonomyisahumanright #ProtectChildren #humanrights
Every body deserves consent — even the tiniest ones. 💔
Circumcision removes healthy, functional tissue from a child who cannot say yes or no.
No medical emergency.
No informed choice.
No autonomy.
Children are not property. Their bodies are not ours to “fix” or alter for culture, cosmetics, or convenience.
Protect children’s rights.
Wait until they are old enough to decide what happens to their own genitals.
✋ End forced genital cutting.

A newborn’s first moments should be filled with comfort, safety, and love. Circumcision takes away that gentle start. Intact America is working to protect babies’ bodies and preserve their right to wholeness. 💙
Imagine your parents got to decide how much of your body you got to keep.
You don’t need to imagine. That’s circumcision. Protect Boys Too. Support our petition!

In KNZ South Africa the current rate of male #circumcision was increased to 87%, yet they still have one of the highest & rising #HIV infection rates. Why do they claim circumcision reduces HIV 60%? Lies. https://t.co/2dWirha6nb @pepfar@usaids@cdcgov
