The Circumcision Debate Ethics and Autonomy

The narrative explores the complex issue of male circumcision, tracing its historical roots and evolving practices across cultures. It highlights the controversial recommendations by health organisations, particularly regarding HIV prevention in Africa, and the ethical implications of circumcision on individual rights. Personal stories, like that of Florian from Germany, illustrate the ongoing debate about medical necessity and bodily autonomy, while progressive voices within religious communities advocate for alternatives.
