You literally just proved me right: he clearly asked for equality between females and males. That's it. And, no, FGM isn't "always banned". I literally cited you an article and an entire peer-reviewed academic journal about therapeutic cutting of female genitalia.

It’s not included in the medical or legal definition of female genital mutilation. At all, anywhere. It’s a legal surgery. You would be making things unequal by banning male circumcision. What about all the female babies, then? The dangers of labiaplasty? Intactivists for women?

"You would be making things unequal by banning male circumcision." No, we'd finally be making things equal. "What about all the female babies, then?" What about them? Cosmetic surgery on female genitalia is already a felony in most Western nations. Not true for boys'

If I chopped your dick in half as a kid, you think the government would let that slide?

This is a fallacy.

You can begin answering that by explaining how it was a relevant rejoinder.

Does chopping your dick in half for aesthetics count as mutilation or not

I think he's referring to infants.

Infants are more susceptible to chronic infection, so I hope he isn’t. I don’t think he wants babies to die though.
-
Having an open wound on a child seems like it would increase the chance of infection, not decrease it.
-
When treated properly it shouldn’t go septic.

And when washed properly an infant shouldn't get an infection
-
You shouldn’t either, but you can walk in the doctor’s with a nasty infection too. Babies are harder to wash. The rate of getting a UTI at some point for hospital attendees was 11%. That’s quite a lot of people, and babies are included in the stat.

"Babies are harder to wash." Washing an intact baby, with his fused-to-the-glans foreskin is not only not difficult, but it's far easier than caring for a mutilated baby with an open-wound in a feces- and urine-filled diaper.
-
Why do you make it sound like they only urinate and defecate post-circumcision? What wonders it works. But seriously, they’re just as gross. And by the way, certain hospitals employ different systems to protect the wound. It’s not just sitting there getting septic.
