==Using Sydney University Prestige prestige to Silence Dissentsilence dissent==

Brian Morris tried to use his status as a professor at the {{UNI|University of Sydney |USYD}} to pressure the university to sack Dr. Karl S. Kruszelnicki, from his position as Julius Sumner Miller Fellow in the School of Physics.<ref>{{REFweb

|urlinit=KS

|Text=Dr Karl Kruszelnicki ignores the massive scientific support for the benefits of circumcision (Weekender, January 10) and instead presents only extremist anti-circ nonsense from the likes of Paul Fleiss. Dr K fails to even mention that make circumcision prevents a raft of diseases in both sexes, as well as sexual problems in men. Bacteria abound under the foreskin,* accounting for 11-fold higher urinary tract infections. The foreskin is, moreover, an "[[HIV ]] magnet". Its removal may reduce the risk of [[AIDS]], [[penile cancer ]] and [[cervical cancer]].

In addition to writing a letter to the newspaper, and trying to get the {{UNI|University of Sydney |USYD}} to sack Dr Kruszelnicki from his position, Morris also filed a formal complaint of bias against the Sydney Morning Herald with the Australian Press Council.<ref>{{REFweb

In 2011, [[Morten Frisch]], {{MD}}, {{PhD}}, a professor of sexual health epidemiology at [https://www.ssi.dk/ Statens Serum Institut] in Copenhagen and at [https://www.en.aau.dk/ {{UNI|Aalborg University] |AAU}} in [[Denmark]], published a study, which showed an excess of orgasm difficulties in [[circumcised ]] men, as well as significantly increased frequencies of orgasm difficulties, pain during intercourse and a sense of incomplete sexual needs fulfillment in women with [[circumcised ]] spouses.<ref>Frisch M, Lindholm M, Grønbæk M.

This study was preceded by three other publications based on the same dataset, dealing with sexual dysfunctions in Danish men and women in relation to socioeconomic factors, health factors and lifestyle factors, respectively, which were swimmingly published without serious criticisms from peer reviewers in the two most prestigious US journals of sexual health, the ''Journal of Sexual Medicine'' and ''Archives of Sexual Behavior''. After adding the variable of male [[circumcision ]] status to the analysis, however, the study was met with extremely critical reviews of everything about the entire dataset.<ref>{{REFweb |last= |first=

|Text=A subgroup of the gay community practice “docking”, a sexual practice that requires the foreskin. Naturally such men would want to ensure that an adequate supply of boys with foreskins are coming up through the ranks, where a proportion will have an orientation towards males. Why don’t those who wish to outlaw male circumcision be honest enough to admit the REAL reason for their campaign? And by the way, “docking” is regarded on gay health websites as unsafe sex, as it exposes the vulnerable mucosal inner lining of the foreskin to infection by [[HIV]], to name just some of the medical hazards posed by the foreskin .

'''Brian James Morris''', a [[circumcised]] native of [[Australia]], has devoted his life to the promotion of [[circumcision ]] and [[foreskin ]] loss for all males everywhere, however, The the Royal Australasian College of Physicians' official advice on circumcision rejects all of his claims.<ref>{{REFweb

{{PUB}}Intactiwiki Notebox|IntactiWiki does ''not '' recommend the publications indexed in this section.}}

Morris seems to never have done any direct research on [[circumcision ]] or the [[foreskin]], but only selective paper research. Various of his publications have only been ''peer-reviewed'' by circumcision fetish fellows of him. In August 2016 e.g., Morris published a critique of a paper that itself had critiqued the practice of [[circumcision]]. But the sole reviewer of Morris’s article was a frequent co-author of his, [[Aaron Tobian]] of the [[Johns Hopkins ]] School of Medicine. In his reference section, Morris listed five papers on which he and Tobian were co-authors.<ref>{{REFweb
