mutilating your child's genitals without anesthetic for cosmetic reasons is abuse. if you disagree with that you're fucking wrong.

That's the thing. A lot of parents didn't do it for aesthetic reasons. They thought it was healthier. This is what I mean when I say people are extreme about it. You're being completely hostile about it. The reality is it's an unnecessary practice we should stop doing but it doesn't negativity affect the lives of the vast majority of people it's done to. Implying that every circumcised male in history was abused by their parents is ludicrous.

mutilating your child's genitals because you couldn't be bothered to inform yourself about it is also abuse

imagine making this argument for literally any other form of abuse. hell, even any other form of mutilation. oh, yeah, i cut off the baby's earlobes because, uhh ... i get cysts in mine sometimes and thats kinda scary. earlobes must be bad.

and yes, im being hostile. we should be hostile toward INFANT GENITAL MUTILATION and those who support it.

But you're being hostile to somebody who doesn't support it.

It's not that parents couldn't be bothered to inform themselves. They were given the wrong information. Though it is factually correct that it's more hygienic.

I would argue that missing earlobes has a more profound effect on a person than missing foreskin.

But you’re being hostile to somebody who doesn’t support it.

then why are you supporting it right now? downplaying its severity, going "its not so bad, you guys are overreacting" that shit is supporting it. if you dont support INFANT GENITAL MUTILATION then stop supporting it. you can't say you don't support it and then go around supporting it

It’s not that parents couldn’t be bothered to inform themselves.

yes it is

They were given the wrong information.

I'm given wrong information about things all the time, and so are you. Hopefully you don't just believe the first thing you're told and refuse to ever look into it, especially if you're planning to MUTILATE ANOTHER PERSON'S GENITALS.

Though it is factually correct that it’s more hygienic.

no it isnt you fucking genital mutilation advocating goddamn freak. fuck you
