K so I don't have the whole thing, but here you go.

So , even with a nerve block, circumcision causes the stress hormones to rise. It's proving that the nerve blocks don't effect intact male infants levels, and the circumcision is what is negatively effecting the infants.

Proving what us intactivists have thought all along, pain prevention does NOTHING.

Reading through the massive scientific wording of the abstract.
Topical anesthesia used in circ's has the same stress level chem in the blood than the controls with no topical anesthesia.

If anyone wants the full text, not the abstract. I cal probably find it in EBSCO or Proquest, which i have access to through my college.

Hahahah after reading your link I now feel faint and overwhelmed. 13 babies without anaesthetic... +deep breath+ Whew...

I feel reaalllllllly sick right now. Wow. I can't get their screams out of my head. Does baby-screams mean nothing to these people? Do they not hear the specific difference in the urgency and extremity of baby's screams during circumcision as opposed to being hungry or cold or tired?

Nah, if you ask a parent of a circumcised boy , they'll say "he cried because he was cold!" ...except when he cries when he's cold it's a totally different cry. The cry from a circumcision is distinct , how people can't figure that out is PRETTY MUCH BEYOND ME. I've seen quite a few circumcision videos, all about the same when it comes to that cry.
