[[Intactivist]] '''Dan Strandjord''' was born in Maryland and grew up in Chicago. As a young boy, he experienced an inappropriate genital examination by a {{UNI|University of Chicago|UChicago}} pediatrician — something that affected him for many years.
Known around the {{UNI|University of Chicago|UChicago}} Medical Center as the [[Foreskin]] Guy, Dan has demonstrated against [[circumcision]] at the {{UNI|University of Chicago |UChicago}} for over a decade.
Becoming aware of the [[intactivist]] movement galvanized Dan into becoming an active opponent of the practice that had harmed him. "I was finally able to start dealing with my lifelong issues about circumcision in late 1998," he says. The next spring, [[ Marilyn Milos ]] organized a national meeting about the 1999 [[American Academy of Pediatrics]] (AAP) circumcision policy in Chicago, where the AAP headquarters is located. "I met an amazing group of people who were excited to do something to protect children and I realized that we must do more to make the issue known."
Daniel Strandjord held was one of the 7 people who wore the [[Bloodstained suit]] at the 2012 AAP meeting in New Orleans with [[Jonathon Conte]]. That was the first time [[intactivists]] used [[Richard Duncker]]'s idea in the [[USA]]. Strandjord gave a speech at the [[WWDOGA]] 2019 in Cologne, Germany.
