Dan Bollinger, 2021

Daniel H. Bollinger, III (born 10 March 1951 in Plymouth, IN), intactivist, has been involved in Intactivism since 1995. He serves on Intact America’s board of directors as vice chair, and was a member if its founding committee. He was instrumental in the creation of Intact America's Tipping Point Strategy.

He was the Director of the International Coalition for Genital Integrity (ICGI), which is now defunct.

Bollinger's involvement in intactivism grew out his commitment to equal rights; he fought to help pass the Equal Rights Amendment in Indiana when he was in college. "Circumcision was an issue I could relate to—not only because I was circumcised, but because of the equal rights aspect. For most of my life I’ve been troubled by night terrors that I later became convinced were an early recollection of my circumcision at age three-days."

Estimated cost of circumcision for Americans

Bollinger estimated the total cost of circumcision in 2012 for Americans, when all costs are included, to be $3.6 billion annually.[1] He has since updated his estimate of total annual cost in 2020 to be $5,685,000,000 or nearly six billion dollars per year.[2]

Award for intactivism

Bollinger was chosen "Intactivist of the Month" by Intact America.

Standard work

Bollinger (2010) estimated the circumcision-related mortality rate of 0.9/100,000 circumcisions (more than 100 deaths) per year in the United States.
