Re: [Peckers_Pics] Re: Banning Circumcision - the AMA says it does not protect from STD's

Correction:

   I can't understand that you are doing this !!

I can't stand this,

Its awful.

 

I hope that everyone will have the right to have their children (males) circumsized or not and that gays who are acting like the right-wing reublicans don't get their way.

I guess you didn't read my article thoroughly. All studies that have suggested that circumcision prevents or reduces STD's like HIV have been dismissed by medical authorities. It's not true.

The Council on Scientific Affairs of the American Medical Association says that ``circumcision cannot be responsibly viewed as `protecting' against such infections."

The American Medical Association also said, "The leading international statement of medical ethics is the European Convention on Human Rights and Bioethics, where Article 20(1) prohibits non-therapeutic tissue removal from those who do not have the capacity to consent. Children have a right to the protection of the security of their person and to protection from degrading treatment. Circumcision violates those human rights. Several authorities report that circumcision degrades the erectile function of the penis. Circumcision, therefore, must be regarded as degrading treatment. Degrading treatment is an additional violation of human rights."

So according to the highest international ethics standards circumcision violates a baby's human rights.

That's why it should be illegal. Case closed!
