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)
When you do, you cut through hundreds of years of bullshit and see the truth. (4) #endinfantcircumcision #i2 #americancircumcision #ric
