Man Protsts Circumcisions at State House
by Tony Schinella
__________________________________________________ ____________________________________________
Randy Delaware is on a mission: To educate people and politicians about the unnecessary dangers of circumcision.
That mission brought him to the State House in Concord on Wednesday.
Delaware is part of a new movement of people called “intactivists,” activists who are promoting intact foreskins and better awareness about the damaging effects of the process.
According to Delaware, some adult males who have had it done say they have lost sensation. Others have had problems in later life, according to studies, due to bad or incomplete circumcisions.
The group claims that curbing circumcisions will lower sexual disease rates, to more similar rates, per capita, as European countries.
From 2006 to 2009, 75 percent of male babies were circumcised in New Hampshire, according to data collected by the federal government.
Delaware also hopes that politicians will end Medicaid funding for circumcision since it is an elective surgery, not a necessary surgery.
