Dan Bollinger
Daniel H. Bollinger III (born 10 March 1951 in Plymouth, IN) 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."

Quote:Bollinger said his hope is to bring the issue of circumcision to a “tipping point,” after which it will no longer be a societal norm.
