LONGER SILENT...
Increasing
numbers of men are aware that medical and parental ignorance of
male genital anatomy & function perpetuates circumcision customs.
Living with the
long-term physical and psychological consequences of
a
surgery that we did not choose, we have both a right and a responsibility
to
oppose a practice that has harmed us and continues to harm innocent children.
Tim Hammond, Founder

National Organization to Halt the Abuse and Routine
Mutilation of Males is a
non-profit, educational and direct-action men's network organized against circumcision
of healthy male infants and children. It gained its inspiration from an earlier group,
The Victims Speak.
MISSION:
To raise public awareness about male genital cutting
(MGC) practices and increase public understanding of genital integrity as a fundamental
human right. We exist to:
educate men
about the functions & benefits of normal, intact male genitalia;
document the
damage caused by male genital cutting customs and expose them as violations of basic
human
rights to physical integrity and self-determination;
empower men
with the education necessary to oppose male genital mutilation in their own families and
at local, national and international levels;
support men
in other cultures who want to re-examine their own male genital cutting traditions.
NOHARMM stands in solidarity with women
against female genital cutting (FGC), and firmly opposes
sexism, racism, ageism,
homophobia and anti-Semitism. We impugn no gender, race or
religion, but assert
that an intact body is a universal human right.
PROGRAMS:
To support progressive social change
advocates.

Whose body is it
anyway?
The forced amputation of a healthy part of
an unconsenting
infant's or child's genitals, whether
in the name of medicine, religion
or social custom, is a human rights violation.
