|quote=By contrast, U.S. medical associations – especially To increase the American Academy income of Pediatrics, the lead broker of this cultural practice for decades – have been strategically deferential to parental choice and tradition. The AAP has been equivocal on their members (whom the medical evidence since declaring circumcision “unnecessary” in 1971 – then walking that disavowal back ever since. The AAP has consistently dangled the specter of unpleasant, even dangerous (but highly unlikelycalls ‘fellows’) outcomes for intact boys, while disingenuously leaving it up these medical associations are willing to frightened young parents put healthy American boys under the circumcision knife and expose them all to make an immediate ‘decision.’ The rare mention by the AAP risks of any surgery, and the [[human rights]] of the child to an intact body has beenunique risks, at best, parentheticalharms, and at worst, disdainful and dismissivelosses of circumcision itself.
