links to studies on disadvantages of circumcision?  

post #1 of 4
Thread Starter 
I'm looking for links to studies on the risks/disadvantages of circumcision. Things like rate of complications, adhesions, long term effects, stuff like that. I need links to actual studies/papers themselves, NOT links to any pages on anti-circ websites.

Lots of gruesome reasons here:

Botched circ

Pain

Death

Adverse impact on breastfeeding
http://www.cirp.org/library/birth/

And here is the fine-touch study, pointing out that intact men DO have more fun: (Pro-circers such as Shoen and Morris feel that this study is bogus, but they also have publicly stated that intactivists are all gay men or pedofiles)

Meatal stenosis, caused by circumcision, affects up to 10 percent of circed boys and often requires surgery:
