> Hello All,

> This forum is primarily intended for unbiased research, to revise our understanding of the ancient tradition of routine circumcision from the perspective of modern medicine. (This means, early monitoring and prevention when possible, accurate diagnosis previous to treatment, information and education).

> In the modern world it seems to me that much of our traditional male identity and values are inappropriate and outmoded.

> I would welcome an open minded exchange of personal experience and ideas, and I would like your help to stimulate and encourage an appropriate modern initiation into manhood.
