![]() | Female circumcision This is the most southerly of the tribes who live in Ethiopia's Omo Valley. In this harsh world, there are times when members of the Dassanech tribe lose their cattle and goats, and with them their livelihood. The way they deal with this, by switching to an alternative means of support by the shores of Lake Turkana, is an example of how life has to adapt in fundamental ways in the face of some of the most inhospitable conditions in the world. |
![]() | Infant Circumcision Part 1 of 2 (Full Version) View part 2 here: http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-2150799354170299771 The complete 13 minute video in one piece with captions can be viewed, embedded or linked to from here: http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=8212662920114237112&q=circumcision&ei=F_mESITMGZGi-wHAno39Cg First, the doctor straps the baby down to the circumstraint board. A drape is placed over the baby to maintain a sterile field. Because a baby's foreskin is usually naturally adherent to the glans(this is also true for girls with their biologically analogous clitoral hood and clitoris), it must first be torn away in order to perform the circumcision. The doctor applies clamps and uses a hemostat to tear away the foreskin from the glans. Once this is done, the clamp is used to make a crush line for the dorsal slit. The dorsal slit allows the bell to be placed under the foreskin easily. After the dorsal crush has been applied for long enough to reduce the chance of bleeding, the dorsal slit is made inside the crush line. Now the doctor puts the bell of the clamp over the glans and arranges the base plate over the foreskin. The doctor next pulls the foreskin through the space between the bell and the base plate, making sure that the end of the dorsal slit is above the base plate. The arm of the bell is now inserted into the yoke and the nut is tightened. Now, the rocker arm will pivot at the notch, pulling on the arm of the bell and crushing the foreskin between the bell and the base plate. Using a scalpel the foreskin is now cut against the bell at the base plate and removed. Now there is a wait to allow the clamp assembly to crush the blood vessels to lessen the chance of bleeding. The clamp is removed. Because of the crush, the remaining skin is stuck to the bell and must be pulled away with the fingertips and gauze. A dressing of petroleum jelly is then gently applied.

За это ему - твёрдый зачёт, эх, побольше бы такихъ реальных дел, как эти красивые слова.

![]() | Circumcision: Excerpt from "Whose Body, Whose Rights?" Here's an amusing intro to a serious independently produced social issue documentary ("Whose Body, Whose Rights?" found at www.circumcisionvideos.com). It's by far the most comprehensive video on the subject of male circumcision, winning several awards and was broadcast by PBS. It addresses many vital issues long overdue for inner reflection and cultural self-examination, including: - history and medical ethics - consequences of circumcision - evolving religious attitudes - legal and constitutional issues - foreskin functions - men's awareness and uncircumcision - medical conscientious objection - children's rights |
