"Millions of Jews were murdered during the Holocaust
because circumcision marked them as Jews! This must
never happen again! Everyone should be circumcised!"
Pediatrician's wife,
American Academy of Pediatrics Annual Conference
Hyatt-Regency Hotel, Chicago, April 14, 1996

heard her (both of whom asked to remain anonymous)
told me this in two separate conversations. The nurse
said there were not enough exclamations points in the
universe to convey the ferocity this woman displayed.
How common is this woman's attitude -- especially
among obstetricians, pediatricians and urologists?]
