      You don't get a small flap of skin removed as in the original biblical circumcision. You get the "modern" Brit Peri'ah where most or all of the foreskin is cut off. The adult skin would fit an index card.pic.twitter.com/xTSysxJYWT

      "They won't remember"? Newborns have some basic consciousness at birth: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19092726 . The pain is so extreme that it may cause brain damage:https://circumcision.org/circumcision-permanently-alters-the-brain/ …

      What about the mothers who do observe their son's circumcision? "It’s absolutely horrible. I didn’t know how horrific it was going to be. It was the most gruesome thing I have ever seen in my life."https://circumcision.org/mothers-who-observed-circumcision/ …

      "I’ll never forget that look. They probably shattered every bit of trust he had." / "I will go to my grave hearing that horrible wail" / "If I had ever known, I wouldn’t have done this in a million years."

      If you are especially unlucky, your circumcision will be botched. You may lose your penis entirely, bleed to death, or suffer from an infection that kills you.https://www.doctorsopposingcircumcision.org/for-professionals/complications/ …

      What happens later in life? You discover you've lost 10-20,000 nerve endings, that your glans shouldn't be keratinized, that women generally prefer intact penises, and that sex is probably going to feel worse for both partners http://sciencenordic.com/male-circumcision-leads-bad-sex-life … / http://www.notjustskin.org/node/59

      Many develop PTSD and can't speak up because they suffer from crippling symptoms when they think about it. Imagine a system of intergenerational child abuse that could do this! It's already been here for thousands of years. https://www.doctorsopposingcircumcision.org/for-professionals/psychological-impact/ …pic.twitter.com/T06CJdsaAs

      Apply the reversal test: imagine the world without circumcision "grandfathered in" from thousands of years ago. If someone invented it in 2018 and started performing it on newborns, what would we think of it?

          Think about how bad the STD justification is: forcing all the downsides for some tiny chance of benefit decades from now. There's no time machine for future STD risk. If he wants it, he can consent to it as an adult.

          Pretty much no one enjoys talking about this. But is the discomfort of talking about it worse than yet another person being subjected to a lifetime of dealing with the consequences of circumcision? I don't think so.

          If you haven't already seen it, Eric Clopper's excellent show covers the history of circumcision, the functions of the foreskin, and the AAP's garbage report (at the 1 hour mark):https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FCuy163srRc …

          Thank you @clopdads and Momma Michelle and @sullydish for inspiring me to start speaking out about this and I hope to be more useful in the future
