A Chinese circumcision contest among surgeons has been reported by the South China Morning Post.[1]
The reasons for these circumcisions are unclear. The American Academy of Pediatrics has long stated that "there are no medical indications for circumcision in the neonatal period."[2] Religions that require circumcision are little practiced in China.
