The term '''Circumcision advocate''' describes a person who vehemently advocates and pronounces in favor of medically not necessary , non-therapeutic genital mutilation in children.

Some of these people are committed to their sexual fetish as individuals and influence e.g. information available online (example: [[Jake Waskett]]). Others work in groups and denounce, ridicule or stalk [[intactivists ]] or spread myths that have long been refuted by science as arguments for [[circumcision]].
== Contradiction in terms ==
Virtually all of the leading medical associations around the world agree that [[circumcision]] in children almost never has a medical indication. Nevertheless, it is significant that the circumcision advocates try again and again with a sophisticated method sophistry and fallacious aurguments to pretend seriousness on the subject: They claim to take a "neutral" point of view and list the [[Arguments pro circumcision|alleged advantages of genital mutilation]] alongside the disadvantages, although they regularly only touch on the latter, not but show that they want to describe them completely.
Since, according to the current state of science and medical ethics, there is no medical justification for foreskin amputation, there can be no advantages for the affected boy. Therefore, many circumcision advocates expose themselves to this allegedly "neutral" point of view from the outset.
