Everyone’s freaking out about this but still supports the religious (or non-religious) right to medically unnecessary circumcision.

    Are you the entire world?

    For women we call it mutilation, which is a correct description

    For men we call it a circumcision

    Granted, with women it's usually much much worse, but still, the average opinion of nnale genital mutilation is "but of course, and you mean circumcision!"
