Daytime television talk shows have never been known for giving the most reliable information to the public. A show called “The Doctors” is no exception. I’m going to go over a segment of the show that aired on the 12th of January 2011. The segment is about the proposed circumcision ban in San Francisco California. This bill would ban non-consensual genital cutting of minors when there is no immediate medical necessity. This bill is intended to protect minors, and does not ban medically necessary or adult consensual surgeries. The clip begins with Doctor Drew Ordon making a horrible case for his position. Dr. Drew, you will henceforth be known as Doctor Fallacy. Let’s begin. ———————— Special thanks to Sam of Gallifrey for help gathering sources and arguments.
