To quote Dr. Judith S. Palfrey, president of the academy:
“We’re saying don’t do it. Do everything that you can to support that family in this tough time, but don’t be pulled into the procedure.”Dare we hope that they will continue to NOT endorse male genital mutilation?
Our boys deserve to be protected just as much as our girls.

OH our local RANZCOG (or RANCID as I think of them....) are having the Conversation about "ritual nicks" soon. FFS. *headdesk*
yeah... it was weird to me reading the info on the girls' policy... I was thinking... but can no one see that it's the same with boys??!!
I am afraid that they are going to change their boys policy again if a belief develops that it will help to prevent HIV transmission... :(
