Should circumcision be made illegal for ALL children?

Question

Kids have human rights too.

The foreskin has some 20,000 nerve endings, the part that's left over has only 8,000. Meaning men who were circumcised at birth have never felt what actual sex SHOULD feel like, according to Nature, not Muslims and Jews.

Not only that, but it results in a 5% smaller average penis. Which equates to anywhere from a quarter to a half inch in length.

Fairness, now: many of those nerve endings aren't tactile. The greater damage to pleasurable sensations is the keratinization of the glans, which occurs from a solid decade (at least) of rubbing up against fabric before sex even becomes an issue. But yes, of COURSE it should be illegal (barring medical necessity, which, while quite rare, DOES happen); if it's bad for the goose, it's bad for the gander. We protect our daughters, we should protect our sons.

Plus, while no one wants to admit this but me and hardcore atheists, an 8-day-old boy is not a Jew. He is a not a Muslim. He is not a part of any religion, organized or otherwise. He is a baby. Let him make his own decisions when he's an adult. How does that saying go- "My body, my choice"?

Circumcision that is not medically necessary on minors should be outlawed. You shouldn't be able to amputate healthy erogenous tissue, permanently altering sexual function, on a minor who cannot possibly consent to the procedure.

1000% yes circumcision is mutilation. It's a human rights issue. Everyone should have the right to their own body and choices. Parents that are cutters are extremely uneducated on the damage they are doing to their sons. It ruins their penis and their brains.

No way! Circumcision is the only thing keeping every boy from having a disgusting penis. I'd never touch one that wasn't snipped.

Yes, of course. This is what's known as a "no-brainer". It's a stupid procedure that serves no useful purpose, and the reasons given for performing it (ex. God commands it) are completely ridiculous.

10k x 10 million % this barbaric act should be abolished and made completely illegal.

Daffotul · Answer

it's a weird tradition anyway and sick in some cults because the rabbis suck the blood off of the boys wound yuck!

Anonymous · Answer

Yes I think it should, except for when it’s needed medically like for example the foreskin being too tight.

jahaims · Answer

Other than the small percentage of them performed for medical reasons yeah. It should be legal for adults if someone wants it done to theirselves after 18.

llorando · Answer

All children? No. 99% of children? Yes. Need that 1% legality incase of medical emergencies that require circumcision.
