Do not forgot: the reason why #circumcision exists in various societies and why it’s exclusively forced on boys is as a tool of cultural control. It sends a direct message “your body is not yours. Remember the group before yourself.” #i2 #childrights (1)
It’s the very reason why when #American parents talk their reasoning for #circumcision it’s always for their future partners, for what their school bullies in the locker room, for THEIR preference as parents. For anyone & everything EXCEPT for the boys preferences.(2) #i2
Because IF circumcision had ANYTHING to do with benefiting the boy, or his wishes society wouldn’t forcibly perform #circumcision on babies. They would allow men to decide for themselves. When it comes to cultural issues like this, ALWAYS focus on the actions not the excuses. (3)
