        If i had a son, he wouldn't get circumcised. Its an outdated religious tradition, people should recognize that.

        If a adult male chose to get circumcised that's his choice, but doing to to child without there consent is wrong, plain and simple

        We give them vaccines without consent. Is that wrong?

        No...because not vaxing can be fatal...similarly if a child needs a heart operation to live...it's likely ok to assume they would agree

        It's disgraceful, if this were a female the police and social services would be going mad. It's time boys had rights.
