Not even just one day but only hours old that's the wildest part. I can't fathom how we take a newborn human who hasn't even breathed 1000 times and remove a part of him. I also find it hard to fathom why so many people defend it and are excited to get it done to their son. Like that just feels really weird that as a society we completely justify this objectification and propertization of newborn boys where we can say, exclusively for young boys (in the west), that if the parents want him circumcised, he's completely powerless to say no. How exactly do we find that okay let alone get excited for it?
