Attendees of the recent Association of American Medical Colleges conference in San Francisco were met by Bay Area Intactivists member Brother K during a demonstration condemning routine infant circumcision. Outfitted in white clothes with a red-stained crotch meant to symbolize a genital mutilation wound, Brother K carried a sign demanding equal rights for boys (to be protected from non-therapeutic, genital cutting) on one side and urging the public to view the video "Child Circumcision: An Elephant in the Hospital" on the other. The demonstration was held to educate those attending the conference that male circumcision is unnecessary, harmful, risky, and unethical when performed without the consent of the owner of the penis.
