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.

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prevalence_of_circumcision check it out, scary numbers, america does this to 80% of the willies that pop out in their hospitals.

    It’s a testament to the dickchopper they use that there aren’t more headless penises out there I suppose, but that’s the nicest thing I can say about it. The second nicest is just “wtf?”

      It only kills a hundred or so babies every year, if you include things like post surgical infection.

      But yeah, thanks to the corn flakes guy it’s super common in the US instead of just being a Jewish and Muslim thing. And it stays that way out of a combination of social inertia and foreskins being valuable to the biotech and cosmetics industries.
