Good points. "Chope’s objection is reasonable, not preposterous. Discussion around #FGM increasingly takes place in a highly emotive and heavily politicised arena. Ill-informed debate fuelling hostility serves no one well and needs to cease" @NimkoAli https://amp.theguardian.com/society/2019/feb/12/in-defence-of-christopher-chope-on-fgm-legislation?__twitter_impression=true …

Do you believe mutilating a child's genitalia is ever justified, Christine? FGM is illegal. Male circumcision should be illegal.

You answer your own question, FGM is already illegal. As for male circumcision that can be medically required and I do not know whether it is true but I think I once heard that there are actual health benefits

bogus health benefits. As bogus as the health benefits FGM proponents give for their particular brand of genital mutilation. Non-consenting genital mutilation is just that. Regardless of sex.

Non-consenting? Who Says? Unless you think men and women are just kids/idiots needing YOUR authorisation/consent to act and take care of their kids.

#HerBodyHerChoice#HIsBodyHisChoice But yes, if a parent chooses to circumcise their child without pressing medical need, they are either extremely ignorant or extremely stupid.1 reply 0 retweets 1 like -

Do you ask your kids before making any decisions for them? No but you think others are too idiotic to take care of their kids? What are you? God or have you seen the light and here to teach others?

don't build strawmen arguements. Parents are perfectly capable of taking care of their kids. Circumcision is not one of those ways.
