Jenny Goodman, MBChB[a 1], M.A.[a 2], is a British medical doctor, psychoanalyst, intactivist, and mother. She served on the faculties of the Fourth and Fifth International Symposia.
She appeared in Victor Schonfeld's ground-breaking documentary, "It's A Boy!", shown on British television in September 1995.

She has appeared twice on BBC national television, spoken on several radio programs, and has had articles published in national newspapers.
Citation
“ | I am confident that my people have such an abundance of life-enhancing, life-affirming and mind-opening traditions, that our identity and sense of cultural self-heed will happily survive our outgrowing of circumcision, a cruel relic which has always felt to me like an aberration at the heart of my religion. – Dr. Jenny Goodman (Challenging Circumcision: A Jewish Perspective)[1] |
