==Early life==
==Support for genital autonomy==
Milos, who supports genital autonomy for all children, bases her arguments on the fact that the foreskin is a normal body structure with protective, immunological, and sexual functions, and that every child has an inherent right to bodily integrity and genital autonomy (personal choice).<ref>"Marilyn Milos and Donna Macris note that some have claimed that the foreskin provides a protective covering for the glans, making the [[uncircumcised ]] penis more sensitive during sexual activity." Stephen Garrard Post, ed., ''Encyclopedia of Bioethics'', 5 vols (3rd edition; New York: MacMillan Reference, 2004), vol. 1, p. 422</ref><ref>; see also Morris L. {{Sorrells, James L. Snyder, Mark D. Reiss, Christopher Eden, Marilyn F. Milos, Norma Wilcox, Robert S.
