QuoteDisplay MoreWhen all these amounts are added up, the grand total cost of newborn male genital cutting in
2024 was about $5,441,000,000.
As the saying goes, follow the money. Medical societies are basically trade groups whose main
goal is to protect their members’ income. Now you understand why neither the American
Academy of Pediatrics, American Medical Association, American Academy of Family Physicians,
nor the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists has condemned this unnecessary
surgery, and why their doctor members often recommend it to expecting parents. And why
healthcare providers frequently ask mothers to consent to newborn circumcision, averaging
eight times.
QuoteWhat this estimate doesn’t include is the nearly $550 million cost of personal
lubricants for sex. Dry sex (dyspareunia) is American women’s number one sex
complaint, and circumcised men often require lubricant when masturbating.
