Stop circumcising children. Let men decide if they want to be circumcised when they are willing up to consent at the age of 18. I guarantee circumcision will drop by 95% or more.
And if that's the case, then don't fucking force this on an infant.
Let's replace "curcumsising" with "imposing religion" to get the same result
Yes and no. That's a much harder thing to argue in reality. I'm an atheist so I'm pretty anti-religion, but the reality is that all parents want to teach their child at least some of their worldview. If that worldview includes religion, who are we to say "no, you can't teach that"? The child can always change their mind when they're older and in theory there's no harm. But a child can't decide to get their foreskin back. (I know there is a surgery to try to add some back, but it's just aesthetic, the nerves will never be recovered.)
Stop molesting children would be my advice.
*mutilating
Yes of course, edited.
Thanks.
Its actually both with traditional Jewish circumcision.
Metzitzah B’peh (Direct Oral Suctioning)
When a baby is circumcised, some ritual Jewish circumcisers (mohelim) do a practice called metzitzah b’peh. Metzitzah b’peh is when the mohel uses their mouth to suck blood away from the baby’s circumcision wound as part of the circumcision ritual. After metzitzah b’peh, some babies can get an infection.

Yes the Jewish one is even more disgusting, but this was in a hospital, I hope they don't have such practices there. 🤮
i believe one baby got oral herpes on the babies genitals that was passed to from the MOHEL.
As a Jewish person there are traditions and practices that are better abandoned
Circumcision is barbaric and backwards
Religion doesn't get a free pass either. Superstition is no basis for mutilating babies
America is one of the only places in the world that still thinks this disgraceful practice is OK.
All because they followed the ideas of a nutter who made cornflakes...
Shit's fucked
Any cosmetic body alteration should only be done according to the will of the body-haver.
Poor little guy is brand new to the world and just wants sleep, warmth and food. Instead he gets this 💔

Why do they still perform such barbaric rites in the 21st century in the first place?

There's a really easy way to tell whether or not you should decide to circumcise a penis. First, check if it's your penis. If it isn't your penis, don't circumcise it BECAUSE THAT IS NOT YOUR DICK AND YOU DO NOT GET TO DECIDE WHICH FLESH BELONGS AND WHICH DOESN'T ON IT.

Genital mutilation should be 100% illegal instead of only applying to girls.
My dude you LITERALLY just heard about a baby almost dying from a circumcision?? Which cis girl is born with the apparatus to undergo a circumcision. I'm waiting.
"instead of only applying to girls" you're on some goofy shit, shitstirrer.
