I believe in individual freedom, not giving some people the freedom to deny freedom to other people. That includes limiting the rights people have over their children's bodies and beliefs.

It’s not complicated. A circumcised penis shows more, and looks more like an erect penis. It exposes what is concealed. Circumcised penises are extremely dominant in porn, which can be presumed to not have inhibition of masturbation as a concern. 1/2

OK, but I think this would have to be widely accepted and here we just accept that most men aren't circumcised and circumcised ones take a bit of getting used to.

Yes, and here it’s the opposite. What I’m getting at is that FGM is a horror, it’s both illegal and ignored, and you’re going after the 11 Jews who haven’t yet been driven out of the UK. +5 points for intellectual consistency, -20 for moral relevance.

I've explained the problem with whataboutism. I have actually spent considerably more time addressing FGM but even if I hadn't, it would be a pointless and presumptuous fallacy to tell me I shouldn't focus on individual choice in terms of MGM coz FGM exists.

Whataboutism is not a fair basis for dismissing an argument about proportion. It’s a basis for dismissing an argument about equivalence.

I'm not much of a fan of "muh social construct" but the attractiveness of body modifications; piercings, tattoos, or genital mutilations, seems to fit that category. (Speaking as the only male in my family to be uncut, thanks to the doctor calling me "naturally circumcized")
