Comparing the foreskin to a skin tag? Worst analogy ever (although I expect no better than terrible from henryp).
You could make the same argument for removing clitorises
...foreskins are beneficial to health. Mutilating foreskins isn't.
I can't understand how as a Christian you can think that God made man in his own image "apart from the foreskin which is an unhealthy mistake than God made" (not quoting you directly just pointing out that your position makes no sense).
All the stuffs about improving hygiene and STD prevention are myths and red herrings. Like I said, removing someone's foot is a also a way to prevent toe infection... and you could make many of the same arguments for removing clitorises...
Wash your penis and wear a condom. Washing your penis is a better way to keep it clean than removing a foreskin and wearing a condom is a better way to prevent STDs than mutilating part of someone's penis.
And by the way, anytime you say something like asexuality isn't natural again I'll try to remember to say "Neither is cutting off part of someone's penis but at least asexuality is harmless."
Indeed.
If you beat someone up and then drug them so they don't remember it does that make it okay because they didn't remember it?

We are talking about irreversible procedures done on a non consenting human for the sake of vanity.
Don't adress me again with such childish arguments. You got cut up and are broken to accept it because your parents love you? Good. But you are FUBAR.
Very rarely are braces beneficial to health. It's almost always a purely aesthetic thing.

Ok. I didn’t know Valk was the authority on genital mutilation 🙄
Anyway, it’s entirely unnecessary alteration of the genitals it shouldn’t be allowed on children regardless of whether or not they’ll remember it.
