you do, but I am afraid that i am slightly more human than that." -AMB
The testimonials on this blog are from real people who (mostly) come from the USA. This blog serves to document common circumcision complications and the prevailing ignorance surrounding this archaic practice. Singly, reports of circumcision harm are dismissed as anecdotal. Collectively, these reports are proof that circumcision damages boys and the men they become.

"Crystal" from Mississippi
It is not normal for a newborn infant to sleep through the entire night. This is a trauma based induced sleep. It is also unwise to allow the child to sleep through the night after he has just been cut. Hemorrhaging is a concern, and she will be unable to monitor it over the course of the entire night if they are both asleep. It only takes 2 ounces of blood loss (absorbed quickly into a Pamper) for an infant to go into shock and bleed to death.
"Tasha" from Louisiana
Some people say that the pain and fear the baby experiences doesn't mater because "he wont remember it". To that I say, a newborn infant can also be sodomized and not remember it; does that somehow make a vile act ok to inflict upon him?
