Intactivism as a potential Effective Altruist cause area?

Abstract

What are all of your thoughts on Intactivism as a potential Effective Altruist cause area? Intactivism, for those who are unfamiliar, is the movement to abolish neonatal male circumcision. In his lecture Sex and Circumcision: An American Love Story, Eric Clopper goes deep into detail discussing the origins of male circumcision, namely that it was designed to damage men’s sexuality, and the common arguments people use in favor of it, such as whether it prevents STDs. He also discusses the fallacies and flawed science often used to defend the practice. Ryan McAllister’s lecture Child Circumcision: An Elephant in the Hospital discusses many similar topics.
