Was just talking at dinner with family, and it seems a logical action to ban circumcision, as in most cases, doesn’t have consent, and is a major (genitals are important) body modification. Can we ban it at the state level? Just a thought.

    because (and I recognize the irony) some people actually need it for health reasons.

      Those are rare exceptions and it should only be done after puberty AND if it can’t be resolved conservatively AND the person consents to the surgery. That’s something else entirely than doing it to children.

        Great job, you just killed me. Yes, I’ve had the procedure done at the age of 3(ish, can’t remember too well) because otherwise I couldn’t pee, period.
