Because if there truly may be health benefits I truly see a circumcision argument

What’s the discussion

However, I’m not convinced of that yet

Understood but he can decide when he's old enough to do so and understands what it entails

Would you argue the same for vaccines?

Actually yes

What about in a different regard, say you son comes up to you and says they want to transition to become a girl. Should that be their decision or the parents?

But that's a different topic

How old is the son?

Say 13

if I believe he is mature enough at that age then yes

I don’t think a 13 year old can possibly know enough about themselves or the world to decide to permanently transition. Perhaps if it were superficial. Like cross dressing then maybe.

If a kid asks for something and a parent knows they may regret it later, is it not within their rights to deny that child

Perhaps you're right

In my state the age is 12 and the kid no longer has to listen to their parents

A boy's foreskin might not be leaving fraction Naturally by the age of 12 much less be able to understand the body and adult sexuality

But the parent is still responsible for the child’s well being aren’t they?

It may not be retracted by the age of 12

But as far as circumcision goes, there is no reason to do it at birth.

The only time someone else remove healthy tissue from another person and not go to prison

Yeah they are which just seems screwy to me

Billboard that people should take before pay someone to cut off part of their son's d penis

I got cut off so.ehow...

@Delta, we’re not agreement at all. Even if there was a 100% reduction in all STD transmission rates, it is outright satanic to excise a child’s genital structures for anything other than dire medical need such as necrosis or gangrene.

I’m not sure where you are coming from in thinking that it is permissible to violently mutilate a boy’s penis. I’d like to see this practice criminalized, and I’m actively working toward that goal.

Is immunizing you all STDs not a dire medical need? Similar to a super-vaccine?

I don't understand why people constantly feel the need to bring vaccines into this discussion....

THEY ARE NOT RELATED OR SIMILAR

Same as the people that try to say "you don't let your kid choose what they eat, otherwise they would just eat candy" or "did you ask for permission to change their diaper"

Those things don't take away from the body of your child

We Hindus Sikhs Buddhists don't do circumcision 😂😂😂😂😂

No but they cause oain to the child while violating busy autonomy for a medical reason

Or maybe there is no medical reason?

That’s what I’m trying to divine

There's absolutely no medical necessity to disfigure the penises of baby boys.

No health benefits at all?

There are no health benefits to cutting already happy healthy baby dicks...

It is literally the most erogenous part of a man's body

I learned last night that there is a mucus like membrane which is supposed to be on the end of a penises and is on the ends of uncircumcised penises... Being a victim myself I didn't even know that

"Mucous membrane" is probably the wrong description but I can't think of the actual terminology

Are there instances where circumcision is necessary? Probably, But those instances would be the exceptions to the rule and not the rule itself. The rule itself ought to be, we don't cut perfectly healthy baby dicks for no reason!

I’m trying to determine wether it is for no reason or not

Let's do a mind experiment… what are some perfectly reasonable situations which might justify cutting a baby dick?
