→Award for intactivism: Add publication.
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.<ref>{{REFweb
