A view from the UK: ". . . call the practice what it is: male ge***al mutilation. That terminology helped confront and outlaw female ge***al mutilation; applying the same frank language to boys’ bodies would force a necessary ethical and legal debate."

"I began my urology career biased. Like many Americans, I thought circumcision was a normal choice and a healthy one.
Since I've come to understand the normal anatomy and function of the male ge***alia, it has been impossible to overlook the harms caused by circumcision. I have witnessed firsthand how circumcision directly interferes with normal sexual functions and also frequently causes other complications such as meatal stenosis, irregular healing, and disruptions in sensation." —Adrienne Carmack, MD

It's very hard for men who were circumcised at birth w/o their knowledge or consent to understand they lost something irretrievable. It's hard for their spouses or intimate partners as well. But circumcision is a tremendously painful procedure, even when done with anesthesia (it wears off) that irrevocably changes a boy's body forever. I used to be neutral about this, folks. Now I'm squarely against it. There are just too many harms and not enough medical benefits, if any, to justify doing something this drastic to your newborn baby.
