Let’s be clear that not all fathers who circumcised their sons are driving a cycle of abuse. Especially not that long ago when it was just viewed as a normal thing many people did. These parents simply didn’t know better. They weren’t abusing their kids. They didn’t do it based on ego. It was just something you did with newborns.
I do sympathize with parents who didn’t know better, including my loving parents. The medical establishment is to blame. Nobody who chooses circumcision thinks they are abusing their son, nor are they criminally negligent. But I can’t say that someone who circumcises their son isn’t technically continuing the cycle. Also, sorry to hear about your son.
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.

Lol I don’t have kids and I’m not planning to. Just think people on here get a little extreme about the whole circumcision thing.
i would hope people would be “a little extreme” about widespread, normalized infant genital mutilation
you are the weird one for not being upset about it
It’s because of the obsessive epiphany.
Abuse is still abuse even if it’s normal and even if you don’t think it’s abuse.
Just because you think it’s abuse doesn’t mean it is.
mutilating your child’s genitals without anesthetic for cosmetic reasons is abuse. if you disagree with that you’re fucking wrong.
