CONTACT and COMMUNICATION


The Cultural Taboo
I don't wish to argue how high the statistics might be, even at one in a thousand, it is an enormous amount of men and boys who we're talking about . . . Why don't the men speak? . . .


Address to experts
Please consider this booklet before you ignore me or diagnose my case and ideas as a delusion.


General address
What is needed is a change of cultural consciousness about circumcision. If you understand the story so far, and find yourself agreeing with this first part, please spread the word about this essay. I am interested in any form of response. I'd particularly appreciate contact with anyone who can suggest how to express such matters, in a simpler or more efficient way. Do you know any doctors, psychologists, or medical authorities to send this to?


 


People with experience
I am interested to hear any personal experience which agrees, or disagrees with any of the ideas which are presented. Initially, any reports from wives, girl friends, mothers and fathers, would all be interesting. I need information. If this concerns you please contact me.


Men with personal experience
Maybe what I've written is enough to show the importance of routinely checking every male child, previous to any difficulties occurring. It would be much easier, if other men with similar experiences would contact me, and share their experiences.

Please help me to stop this ignorance around us, so that other boys / men don't have these initiation problems.

Robin Stuart,
