"It is illegal to cut an infant girl’s genitals and has been since 1997. Every year, though, 1 million baby boys are circumcised in America. Their rights have been violated, and no one cares, and no law protects them. Routine infant circumcision is a human rights violation."
"Babies are human beings, and all human beings have the same rights. Age and sex do not determine one’s rights, and parental ignorance, delusions or wishes do not abrogate those rights. Routine infant circumcision violates the rights of men and should be illegal based on all human rights law. Many other developed countries like Sweden and Holland understand this and are moving to make all circumcision illegal. We in the U.S. like to think that we’re the guardians of human rights, yet we cannot keep our own house in order."
