"Globalized industrialized food is not cheap: it is too costly for the Earth, for the farmers, for our health. The Earth can no longer carry the burden of groundwater mining, pesticide pollution, disappearance of species and destabilization of the climate. Farmers can no longer carry the burden of debt, which is inevitable in industrial farming with its high costs of production. It is incapable of producing safe, culturally appropriate, tasty, quality food. And it is incapable of producing enough food for all because it is wasteful of land, water and energy. Industrial agriculture uses ten times more energy than it produces. It is thus ten times less efficient." - Dr. Vandana Shiva
Oh. my. god. I had to stop it half way through, because I was starting to cry. My baby is lying on the floor on a towel next to me, with his perfect little penis getting its daily "air time" I had *imagined* circumcision, and knew that I would never do it to any son of mine. Watching even half of that video made me SO grateful that we went with our instincts on that one. Thank you so much for sharing this.

Thank you for sharing this video. It is horrible, but great that more people are becoming aware of the horrors some young boys go through.

ReplyDeleteWow. That's horrible.
ReplyDeleteInteresting video.
ReplyDeleteLike most videos of surgeries, it takes some bit of discipline for a layperson (non-medically trained) to watch without some discomfort.
If you want some non-biased info on male infant circumcision check out this site...http://www.circinfo.net/
The circinfo site is about as biased as they come. It's all about "the benefits" of circumcision.
ReplyDeleteBullshit, I say.
