 | DR. BAETEN'S FOLLY? INFANT PENIS RIPPING, HIV AND AFRICAN TRUCK DRIVERS...
See Postscript #1 below.
Mass infant penis ripping and slicing is really nothing compared to the gruesome spectacle of MDs routinely closing birth canals up to 30% and keeping birth canals closed when babies get stuck. See my Open Letter to JARED M. BAETEN, MD below.
Mass infant penis ripping and slicing is the American medical religion's $400 million per year most frequent surgical behavior toward males. Finally ending this obvious mass child abuse would save $400 million per year, end the infant screams - and preserve the grisly surgery as a CHOICE American males could make in adulthood.
Mass infant penis ripping and slicing - euphemism routine infant circumcision - is historically based on the bizarre former MD practice of obtaining "informed consent" from parents by using phony neurology to tell them that babies can't feel pain (sometimes MDs did not obtain consent - they just ripped and sliced the baby's penis).
The American medical religion's pediatrician-priests still have not acknowledged that they perpetuated the phony neurology in 1987. In the year 2000, when American pediatricians finally admitted babies can feel pain, they used the phony neurology to "explain" why it is hard to strap babies down for the infant penis ripping and slicing.
RELIGIOUS CIRCUMCISION: American pediatricians recently perpetuated the fraudulent notion that the American medical religion's TOTAL infant foreskin amputation is the same as the ancient Jewish ritual that leaves most of the foreskin on the penis.
I am still in favor of an exemption from the child abuse laws for the ancient Jewish ritual that leaves most of the foreskin on the penis.
See Postscript #1 below.
C-SECTION: AND OBESITY
"[O]verweight and obese women had a significantly increased risk for...cesarean delivery, and delivery of a macrosomic infant." --Jared M. Baeten, MD et al.^^^ Am J Public Health. 2001 Mar;91(3):436-40. PubMed abstract

OPEN LETTER (archived for global access; see below)
Jared M. Baeten, MD Department of Epidemiology University of Washington Seattle, Washington, USA (Present affiliation: Department of Medicine, Massachusetts General Hospital, Boston, Massachusetts, USA)jbaeten@u.washington.edu
Jared,
Belated congratulations on graduating from medical school!
(I'm assuming you are the Jared Baeten, MD who graduated in 2003 from University of Washington Med School then went to Massachusetts General Hospital, Boston, Massachusetts, USA to publish the HIV/circumcision study discussed below. http://www.alphaomegaalpha.org/Chapters/AlphaWashington/2003GraduatingClass-Specialty.htm)
Since you studied pregnancy outcomes in lean vs. obese women, I thought you might be interested to know that OBs are routinely closing birth canals up to 30% and keeping birth canals closed when babies get stuck.
OBs are engaging in fraud and deception to conceal this bizarre birth behavior.
THE FOUR OB LIES
OB LIE #1. After MASSIVE change in the AP pelvic outlet diameter was clinically demonstrated in 1911 and radiographically demonstrated in 1957, the authors of Williams Obstetrics began erroneously claiming that pelvic diamaters DON'T CHANGE at delivery.
OB LIE #2. After Ohlsen pointed out in 1973 that pelvic diameters DO change - the authors of Williams Obstetrics began erroneously claiming that their most frequent delivery position - dorsal - widens the outlet.
OB LIE #3. After I pointed out in 1992 that dorsal CLOSES - and so does semisitting - the authors of Williams Obstetrics - put the correct biomechanics in their 1993 edition - but kept in their text (in the same paragraph!) - the dorsal widens bald lie that first called my attention to their text...
OB LIE #4. OBs are actually KEEPING birth canals closed when babies get stuck - and claiming they are doing everything to allow the birth canal open maximally. (ACOG Shoulder Dystocia video - also forceps and vacuum births are performed with the mother in lithotomy.)
See Make birth better: Dan Rather, before you leave CBS... http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/chiro-list/message/2983
I noted some of the OB lies in an Open Letter to the FTC years ago... http://home1.gte.net/gastaldo/part2ftc.html
ETHICAL VIOLATION
MDs are violating AMA's Principles of Medical Ethics, failing to strive to expose the OB fraud and deception, as in,
"[AMA physician[s] shall...strive to expose those physicians...who engage in fraud or deception."
"[AMA p]hysician[s] shall...seek changes in those requirements which are contrary to the best interests of the patient."
"[AMA p]hysician[s] shall...make relevant information available to patients, colleagues, and the public..." http://www.psych.org/psych_pract/ethics/ethics_opinions53101.cfm
As a doctor of chiropractic, I am appalled that OBs are performing gruesome spinal manipulation on babies - pulling with hands, forceps, vacuums - with birth canals senselessly closed up to 30%.
Sometimes OBs pull so hard they rip spinal nerves our of tiny spinal cords.
Some babies die - some babies are paralyzed - most "only" have their spines gruesomely wrenched.
ALL spinal manipulation is gruesome with the birth canal closed the "extra" up to 30%.
In addition Jared, OBs are performing surgical batteries...
UNNECESSARY C-SECTIONS: OBs CAUSE cephalopelvic disproportion (close the pelvis up to 30%) then perform c-sections BEcause of cephalopelvic disproportion.
UNNECESSARY EPISIOTOMIES: OBs are slicing vaginas en masse (routine episiotomy) - surgically/fraudulently inferring they are doing everything possible to open birth canals - even as they close birth canals up to 30%.
NOTE TO PREGNANT WOMEN... It's easy to allow your birth canal to OPEN the "extra" up to 30%. All you have to do is roll onto your side as you push your baby out. Note: This won't prevent all operative vaginal deliveries and unnecessary c-sections and episiotomies but it will very likely prevent some.
WHITE ELEPHANT FACT: Women shouldn't have to ASK for this "extra" up to 30% - but that's the way it is - so talk to your OB today.
How sad that in regard to c-sections MDs are implicating large babies and large women and failing to mention that they are routinely closing birth canals up to 30% and routinely keeping birth canals closed when babies get stuck.
Jared, I hope you will strive to expose the fraud and deception of OBs.
For some babies, it's a matter of life and death.
Sincerely,
Todd

PS1 CIRCUMCISION AND HIV: ATTEMPTED COVER-UP OF MASS CHILD ABUSE BY OBs...
(Routine infant circumcision is the euphemism for the mass infant penis ripping and slicing that is American medicine's $400 million per year most frequent surgical behavior toward males. Most infant penis ripping and slicing is "performed" by OBs without anesthetic amid infant screams of agony. Some babies die or lose their penises though these outcomes are extremely rare. MDs and nurses alike have called the mass infant penis ripping and slicing "barbaric." See quotes below.)
SOME RELEVANT HISTORY In late 1987, I called attention to the spectacle of the American Academy of Pediatrics/AAP perpetuating the phony "babies can't feel pain" neurology that MDs had long-used to "inform" parents deciding whether to have their babies' foreskins amputated.
I called for an immediate end to the mass MD child abuse for profit scheme and for religious exemptions for Jews.
(I am still in favor of a religious exemption for Jews - for the ancient tradition that leaves most of the foreskin on the penis. See Pediatrician 'ethics' (Attn: Gesundheit et al.) http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/chiro-list/message/2908.)
In the January 1988 issue of Pediatrics, the AAP came out against ALL religious exemptions.
In the February 1988 issue of Pediatrics, the AAP came out for anonymity of PERPETRATORS of child abuse.
In March 1988, the California Medical Association/CMA ignored its own Scientific Board and instantly created "an effective public health measure" out of "no medical indications" routine infant circumcision.
By voice vote of the CMA House of Delegates, routine infant circumcision suddenly prevented transmission of HIV/AIDS - even though - just months previous - the CMA's own Scientific Board rejected that very proposal.
Weeks later, the American Academy Pediatrics apppointed a Task Force on Circumcision that elicited a year of pro-circumcision headlines that were so compelling that when the Task Force finally decided that there still weren't any medical indications - pediatricians had to be informed that AAP had not changed its position.
The 1989 report of the AAP Task Force on Circumcision failed to mention that the CMA had declared the mass child abuse "an effective public health measure" - which means the AAP Task Force (chaired by a CMA member) did not mention that the CMA's own Scientific Board rejected that proposal.
Clearly, American pediatricians took action that perpetuated (and perpetuates) mass child abuse in America.
American pediatricians who perform routine infant circumcisions violate their own ethics every day:
"[T]he pediatrician's responsibilities to his or her patient exist independent of parental desires...
"...A[n infant's screaming writhing and bleeding obviously constitutes the - TDG] patient's reluctance or refusal to assent [and - TDG] should...carry considerable weight when the proposed intervention is not essential to his or her welfare and/or can be deferred without substantial risk...
"[T]hose who care for children need to provide for measures to solicit assent and to attend to possible abuses of 'raw' power over children when ethical conflicts occur." AMERICAN ACADEMY OF PEDIATRICS Informed Consent, Parental Permission, and Assent in Pediatric Practice(RE9510) Pediatrics Volume 95, Number 2 February, 1995, p. 314-317 http://www.aap.org/policy/00662.html
INFANT SCREAMS...
Here two nurses discussed the screams...
"After years of strapping babies down for this brutal procedure and listening to their screams, we couldn't take it any longer." [Sperlich BK, Conant M. Am J Nurs (Jun)1994:16. http://www.cirp.org/nrc/]
Here's a nurse calling it "barbaric"...
"Nursing alert...[N]urses must consider their participation in a surgical procedure that involves no anesthesia to be a barbaric practice." (p. 205) Donna L. Wong's Essentials of Pediatric Nursing [1997]
Here's an MD calling it "barbaric"...
"[S]till all too often barbaric...[M.D.s]...would never allow older childrenor adults to be subjected to such practices, nor would they submit to it themselves..." [Veteran circumcision cheerleader Colonel Thomas E. Wiswell, MD in article in the April 24, 1997 New England Journal of Medicine]
In 1980, one pediatrician wrote:
"[Routine infant circumcision] constitutes child abuse...an acknowledged hazard to health." [Michael Katz, MD: Letter. AJDC, 1980]
In 1986, another wrote:
"What a terrible indictment...guilty of failing those for whom we have chosen to be advocates." [Finkel KC: The failure to report child abuse. AJDC, 1986;140:329-330]
It is simply wrong to rip and slice infant penises - and MDs know it...
FUNDAMENTAL TRUTH: MDs are powerful cultural authorities who can legally commit felonies...
But this does not mean MD felonies should not be identified as felonies...
See SLAPP: How MDs get away with grisly felonies: Censor Bob Dubin, DC and the Schroeder-SLAPP-censored chirolist http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/chiro-list/message/2959
The most recent medical lie in regard to infant circumcision...
As noted above, American pediatricians recently perpetuated the fraudulent notion that the American medical religion's TOTAL infant foreskin amputation is the same as the ancient Jewish ritual that leaves most of the foreskin on the penis.
Also noted above, I am still in favor of an exemption from the child abuse laws for the ancient Jewish ritual that leaves most of the foreskin on the penis.

BACK TO DR. BAETEN...
SEXUAL BEHAVIOR OF 745 KENYAN TRUCK DRIVERS
Jared, I note that you and your colleagues (Baeten et al.^^^) recently studied "detailed accounts of ual behavior of 745 Kenyan truck drivers [with] their wives, casual partners, and prostitutes."
You used HIV-1 seroprevalence estimates among Kenyan women to model HIV-1 "per- act transmission probabilities."
You concluded: "[U]ncircumcised men were at a >2-fold increased risk of acquiring HIV-1 per act, compared with circumcised men."
^^^Baeten JM, Richardson BA, Lavreys L, Rakwar JP, Mandaliya K, Bwayo JJ, Kreiss JK. J Infect Dis. 2005 Feb 15;191(4):546-53. Epub 2005 Jan 18. PubMed abstract
News of your study, Baeten et al. [2005] was posted to the usenet by "Briar Rabbit
One poster (John) wrote:
"it's a hoax...http://www.whale.to/a/hivfraud.html"
According to John's URL, Kerry Mullis, PhD (whose Nobel-prize-winning PCR technique is used in HIV research) doesn't believe HIV causes AIDS! Dr. Mullis says he still cannot find anyone who will show him the scientific study that demonstrates that HIV causes AIDS!
Pologirl replied to John...
"No hoax. The abstract is on PubMed: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/query.fcgi?cmd=Retrieve&db=pubmed&dopt=Abstract&list_uids=15655778"
Pologirl mentioned RELIGION...
"The abstract does not mention a very important difference between men with and without foreskins: religion....You will have to read the paper itself to decide if this factor is taken into account. The article is available, free, on the web: http://www.journals.uchicago.edu/JID/journal/issues/v191n4/33047/33047.html
Speaking of religion, there was no mention of the fact that the American medical religion's priests (MDs) could go to prison for their mass infant penis ripping and slicing perhaps even if they finally after-the-fact find a reason for their mass child abuse.
I liked these www.circumstitions.com comments regarding a 1999 African truck driver study:
>>Granting that these studies have indeed demonstrated such a link, this >>advice is still folly.
>>Any such link is statistically quite slight, so the protection would be >>quite inefficient compared to education in safe- practices and a >>culture of protected or otherwise safe(r) . This protection would be extended to a population, but it would be impossible to convince the average man that circumcision did not confer significant protection on him personally. The temptation would be irresistible - especially if he had submitted to a painful operation in adulthood - for a man to say "I'm circumcised, I'm safe". Since circumcision desensitises the glans, men who have been circumcised in adulthood would be less willing to use condoms than intact men. So promoting circumcision would increase the net rate of unprotected , and the rate of HIV transmission would increase.<< http://www.circumstitions.com/aol/HIV.html
Jared, having had my own penis ripped and sliced by an MD years ago, I am pleased to read that the MD who ripped and sliced my penis might have accidentally benefitted me; but I suspect that molecular biology ("HIV science") and epidemiology are just being used to further cover-up mass child abuse by American MDs.
IN SUMMARY
Mass infant penis slicing and mass adult vagina slicing are American medicine's most frequent surgical behaviors toward males and females, respectively, and both occur at around the time OBs routinely close birth canals up to 30% and routinely keep birth canals closed when babies get stuck.
OBs are lying to cover-up their birth-canal-closing mass felony.
I hope you will strive to expose the OB fraud and deception.
Again quoting AMA's Principles of Medical Ethics:
"[AMA physician[s] shall...strive to expose those physicians...who engage in fraud or deception." http://www.psych.org/psych_pract/ethics/ethics_opinions53101.cfm
One last note...
I am in favor of pardons in advance for MDs. MDs are just academic prime cuts forced through this culture's most powerful mental meatgrinder - medical school.
As med students, MDs are TRAINED to perform felonies - and some are being trained (hopefully unwittingly) to help cover-up MD felonies.
Again Jared, belated congratulations on your 2003 graduation from medical school (assuming you are the same Jared that recently graduated).
Thanks for reading.
Sincerely,
Todd

PS2 Your University of Washington medical school classmate Ann Stanek, MD is apparently doing her residency in obstetrics at Oregon Health & Science University/OHSU Portland, Oregon. http://www.alphaomegaalpha.org/Chapters/AlphaWashington/2003GraduatingClass-Specialty.htm
OHSU is promoting birth-canal-closing/semisitting on the web.
See Birth child abuse: Oregon's only medical school (OHSU) http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/chiro-list/message/2986
I will cc Ann via staneka@ohsu.edu
At least one campus in the UC system (UCIrvine) is also promoting birth-canal-closing/semisitting on the web. So I'm protesting there too...
See Pediatricians: What about DURING birth? http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/chiro-list/message/3142
See also: Distinguished OBSTETRIC Teaching at UCLA? http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/chiro-list/message/3153
BTW, American medicine's most frequent surgical behavior among BOTH males and females - severing the umbilical cord - is also obvious child abuse the way it is often performed by American MDs (immediate cord clamping/cutting).
See again: Birth child abuse: Oregon's only medical school (OHSU) http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/chiro-list/message/2986
And see: Dr. Hollands' glib response (re: umbilical cord clamping) http://groups-beta.google.com/group/misc.kids.pregnancy/msg/0c17a982c14c5681
ASSIGNMENT FOR HIV/AIDS RESEARCHERS IN SQUATTING CULTURES...
Please ponder this...
The Great Birth Robbery (routine denial of the "extra" up to 30%) was in effect blamed on The Great Squat Robbery in British obstetrician Jason Gardosi, MD's 1989 Lancet "randomised controlled trial of squatting" - where nobody squatted...
See Two robberies: educators can stop them http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/chiro-list/message/3047
See also: The Great Squat Robbery and UCI's Harry B. Skinner, MD, PhD http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/chiro-list/message/3146
Do squatting cultures really want to ape Western chairdwelling culture in robbing children of an innate comfortable rest posture that doubles as a human delivery posture that allows the birth canal to open the "extra" up to 30%?
As folks in squatting cultures easily rise from a squat in squatting cultures well into old age, many elderly chairdwellers have difficulty rising from a chair.
Here in the US, Medicare pays for motors in "ejection" chairs.
We shouldn't be robbing children of an innate way to take a rest on their feet in virtually any terrain.
Hopefully, the West's chair imperialism can be reversed.
Thanks for reading.
Sincerely,
Todd
