Dr. William George Rathmann[1], M.D.[a 1], was a physician from Inglewood, California.

Rathmann had a varied medical background. After completing internships and residency training at U.S. Marine hospitals in Chicago, Seattle and Fort Stanton, NM, he owned and operated a hospital in Carazozo, NM, for three years. Since 1938, however, he has been in general practice in Inglewood, California. A member of the senior surgical staff of Centinela Hospital, Inglewood, Dr. Rathmann was also on the staff of five other hospitals in the southern Los Angeles area. A graduate of the University of Nebraska, Academy Member Rathmann had a special interest in psychosomatic diseases.[2]

Female circumcision promotion

In 1959, he published an article promoting wide-scale female circumcision as a cure for psychosomatic illness and marital problems. He literally claimed beside other arguments, that "if the husband is unusually awkward or difficult to educate, one should at times make the clitoris easier to find."[3] He also promoted his then newly patented "Rathmann female genital circumcision clamp".[4] It is noteworthy that his article has only be cited in another paper at PubMed.gov, by circumfetishist Brian J. Morris, et al.[5]
