|Text=The [[foreskin]] is the most sexually sensitive part of the [[penis]]. The removal, especially in infancy and childhood, always represents a serious violation of genital integrity, which can lead to persistent physical, sexual or psychological complications and states of suffering. In Germany alone, about 400 young boys are admitted to hospitals every year, even after circumcisions that have not been carried out for medical reasons, with sometimes severe complications. With our conference, we would like to provide information on this and open up a platform for a factually sound and respectful dialogue with all interested parties on this controversial topic.
