#HealthcareAndSecularism James Chedwiggen: the law may have a role in protecting children's rights and ending circumcision, but it won't work without cultural change.
Worth noting that 62% in UK would support a ban on circumcisionhttps://www.secularism.org.uk/news/2018/02/nss-says-uk-should-follow-icelands-lead-to-end-genital-cutting …
Because PARENTS are legally responsible for/in control of the care of THEIR children until at least the age of 18(?). My mother was a nurse(RN) and knew the BENEFITS of circumcision ;-)

My father was uncircumcised but, approved of ALL four(4) of his sons being circumcised (He too probably knew the BENEFITS outweighed a very short time of discomfort if any ?).

Some mothers approve circumcision for all of their daughters. I’m sure they believe it’s “beneficial” too. You would circumcise yourself and your daughters if there were “benefits” too, huh. Wouldn’t you. Yes, I’m sure it’s all about “benefits.”

There is a variety of
#FGM. The@WHO categorizes then into four. Not all varieties remove the clitoris. Actually, none do, or can. Male infant#circumcision is always compared to the worst kind in Africa, false comparison since it’s not being compared to male circ in Africa.#i2 -
LOL, Now you're using the extreme to justify yourself(an act of desperation). Male & female circumcision are NOT the same ! Typical male circumcision does not remove the whole penis but, the common form of female circumcision removes the whole clitoris ! Bye, fool !

“LOL, Now you're using the extreme to justify yourself(an act of desperation). Male & female circumcision are NOT the same !” You keep repeating this as if repeating it made it more true. This isn’t “extreme,” just the facts ma’am...

Your mother was also an idiot apparently. Yes. Parents are legally responsible for/in control of “their” children until at least 18. That would include both daughters *and* sons right? So then parents can “decide” to circumcise their daughters.
