<blockquote>The surgical removal or modification of human genitalia is a somewhat gruesome and most controversial subject. It is also one which illustrates the many and varied contradictions which exist within the espoused positions and practices of the medical professions and the religious faiths in the United Kingdom.

As for the debate surrounding male circumcision, it is barely audible. However, whilst the results of each of these practices—in that genitalia is removed or modified—are identical, the messaging surrounding them could hardly be more different.</blockquote>
