Eric Clopper – “The State of Intactivism.”

J4MB has campaigned against MGM since our launch in 2013. All the ICMIs I’ve organised have included at least one prominent intactivist, usually an American. The MGM playlist (113 videos) on our YouTube channel is here.

I am delighted to announce that Eric Clopper, now a LA-based lawyer and one of the world’s highest-profile intactivists, has agreed to be interviewed by me for ICMI26. He first came to our attention with the video (2:10:50) of his remarkable performance at Harvard, Sex & Circumcision: An American Love Story. From the video description:

“My show ‘Sex & Circumcision: An American Love Story’ premiered at Harvard University’s Sanders Theatre on May 1, 2018.

Two days later, the student paper, The Crimson, defamed the performance that they did not see a “Naked, Anti-Semitic Rant.” Harvard suspended my employment for over 2 months then terminated me and drove my Harvard boss to suicide for supporting me.”

Eric was the Founder and remains the President of Intact Global Inc., his introductory address at the latest conference (in June, 2026) is here (video, 23:16). The video gives a good account of the progress of the work of Eric and others, including some encouraging legal actions in Oregon and Colorado.

David Lloyd gyms in equality row over ‘ban on men’.

Our thanks to Nigel for this in the Telegraph (£), this in the Mail. He writes:

“Interesting in the increasing use of “cultural” or “religious” reasons as well as feeling “unsafe” in the arguments to give women privileges not afforded men. As pointed out in one piece the sessions are at peak time for the clubs, after work hours. Though the complaining men will be sneered at for whinging they do a good service in pointing out those trumpeting equality have double standards. The use of cultural or religious reasons is a neat trick, these days a case based solely on sex might be lost, because it rests on the presumption all men are sex predators, itself a discriminatory belief. Whereas accommodating religious or cultural beliefs has more weight to avoid “racism” . David Lloyd Clubs claim “men haven’t asked”. Locally men did ask, from both Orthodox Jewish and Islamic Communities and the Council leisure services had to offer men-only swimming sessions as well as women-only sessions as a result!”

Dr Balvinder Mehat to appear in a hearing before the Medical Practitioners Tribunal Service.

Dr Balvinder Mehat is a Sikh doctor and mutilator of boys’ genitals for personal gain, who has long run the Bakersfield Medical Centre in Nottingham. Our interest in the man relates to two cases in which it was alleged he hadn’t obtained proper approval from one of the parents of the boys being subjected to MGM – in one case the mother (Mehat was suspended by the GMC for a month in 2019 in relation to this case, BBC piece on it here), and in the case I’m writing about today (from 2022, when the boy was seven years old), the father. Our blog pieces on Mehat are here. The BBC covered the latter case in 2024, here.

My thanks to a person following the latter case for alerting us to the fact that Mehat will shortly appear in a hearing (from 2 November) before the Medical Practitioners Tribunal Service in Manchester – details on their website, here.

In 2018 I lodged papers in Nottingham with a view to bringing a private prosecution of Mehat, on the grounds that performing MGM is a crime under the Offences Against the Person Act 1861, being at least ABH and almost certainly GBH. My blog piece here. Unfortunately a judge denied me leave to bring the prosecution.

We shall bring you details from the new hearing in due course.
