While I’ve never met anyone significantly impacted by circumcision, I will concede that it’s a rather odd and unnecessary procedure which is forced upon unwitting babies, so yeah, it’s really not needed. Let’s remove it, a guy can make his choice later in life.

I love these “rather odd” ideas from no research, knowledge of history, etc....

If you’re trying to defend circumscision, that’s fine. I’m aware it’s very important to certain cultures. I’m just saying let’s leave it up to the individual to make that decision.
-
Dismissing it as strange is the issue. The decision is left up to the parents? Now you want to take important life decision away from parents?
-
Could you elaborate how removing part of a child's penis is an important life decision for parents?
-
Your parents will make all sorts of decisions in your first 5 years of life that will impact your entire life, & that’s their job. I can’t elaborate on an individual decision as it can vary wildly. However, if you’re arguing they should not have that power I need u to elaborate.

Circumcision is a radical removal/amputation of one or more bodily structures (frenulum, foreskin, ridged band, etc.). It's a permanent physical change that cannot be undone. Should parents have this power over their children's feet, face, vagina? Why just the penis?
-
Yes they should because they under implications better than the child. As most things, at that age. They do have that ability and they do minor things all the time even chose sex. I think you're trying make point, what is the point exactly?

It no doubt effects a baby subconsciously, I've been there, I've also seen puppies have vets snip their tales off calling it docking. It is done with 0 anesthesia. Something I'll never forget. Muslim girls are forcibly circumcised, you can't ever convince me ,it's not barbaric.
