      Consent is a defense to assault. Culture, tradition or religion isn't. Except it seems when it comes to baby boy's genitals. #HealthcareAndSecularismhttps://twitter.com/NatSecSoc/status/1056144512433709056 …

      #HealthcareAndSecularism Violent sport meets the definition of assault occasioning actual bodily harm. You con consent to take part in a boxing match, but you can't just put on some boxing gloves and start uppercutting people.

      Sad and not at all surprising that you refer to circumcision, which of course isn't anything like the savage mutilation and theft of orgasm inflicted on Muslim children..

          Is it mutilation? The answer is yes, it is the removal of part of a child's body causing permanent damage. You can argue it's not as harmful as FGM in most cases (certainly not all) but doesnt change the fact that the child is being mutilated because its parents believe in a god.

          Agreed. It's just that the mutilation is far more egregious in the case of Islam. #farfarmore

          I find it JUST as offensive. If not more so, at least with Islamic FGM it is already illegal (even though we don't seem to enforce but that's another issue), mutilation of boys is carried out in the open without shame or castigation.

          Surely you should base the extent of your findings on the degree of mutilation performed, and the consequences? I agree it should all stop, but to try to make some equivalence between the two practices is something I find hugely dishonest and thus offensive..

          One is already illegal and IS disgusting, the other is accepted and the degree of mutilation is irrelevant ANY mutilation for belief in magic sky people should be illegal. Why can you not accept that it should ALSO be illegal to chop off a part of a boys penis?

          I do agree! Neither is acceptable, obviously.. You know what would be an equivalent to what is done to these poor girls? the equivalent would be the removal of the head of the penis, the glans, the helmet.....NOW do you get the difference??

          Ok so you agree BOTH should be illegal, we will leave it at that. As far as I am concerned the severity in the majority of cases does not justify only protecting young girls from mutilation. Boys have a right to not be chopped up too.

          It's permanently altering/scarring somebody without their consent, usually on grounds of the unprovable/ridiculous beliefs of the parents. That's child abuse.

          Yes, but it's not theft of orgasm.

          You do realise that Muslims are still the largest single religious group to circumcise boys? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Khitan_(circumcision) …
