This is bollocks.

The thing is, if I was king of the world, I’d probably say “look, can we just leave everyone’s genitals alone please? Yeah, just stop cutting pieces of people off, it’s weird...thanks...nice one”. But I have to admit, I do find it deeply strange that guys are SO insistent.....

...that male circumcision must be discussed EVERY TIME anyone mentions FGM. It seems very much like an agenda is being pushed.

But it’s not about degree of harm or reasons. It’s about consent. http://blog.practicalethics.ox.ac.uk/2017/08/does-female-genital-mutilation-have-health-benefits-the-problem-with-medicalizing-morality/ …
