Reply to comment by LostYonder in Is circumcision good or bad? by Circ

It's through abstract things like "symbol of belonging of a community" that people justify and distance themselves from the most horrifying things. All of these things you are saying right now are utterly irrelevant. While the bodily effects of circumcision on someone are important, and the religious significance is important to understand (for strategic reasons, because seriously, fuck religion) they're not, like, more important than the immediate fact that you're cutting bits of someone's bits off against their fucking will.
