Physical integrity and the fundamental right to one's own body, is a human right that was and continues to be repeatedly violated with the implementation of mass industrialized, non-consenting, non-therapeutic male infant circumcision in the United States. Non-therapeutic child circumcision without the consent of the child occurs more than one million times a year in the United States.[1]
