The Brussels Collaboration on Bodily Integrity, headed by Brian Earp, is very proud to announce the release of its followup article, five years in the making, to its previous 2019 article on genital cutting.
The new article, titled, “Genital Modifications in Prepubescent Minors: When May Clinicians Ethically Proceed” has just been published here by the American Journal of Bioethics (AJOB), and addresses various topics that have gained greater prominence in the intervening five years and/or which there was not space to address previously while simultaneously comprehensively overviewing the entire topic of genital modifications in prepubescent minors.
The prior article was titled, “Medically Unnecessary Genital Cutting and the Rights of the Child: Moving Toward Consensus” and was also published here in 2019 by the AJOB.
ARC Executive Director Steven Svoboda writes:
I am proud to have been a contributor along with the many other co-authors to both articles. I am particularly pleased to have been able to have been one of the many co-authors of the 2024 article, which I believe may be the best and most important article ever written on the topic. At least that is how it seems to me now in the glow of reading the article.
