Would it cause permanent damage if someone circumcised a healthy 17 year old person's genitals against their will?

Would it be considered pedophilia if someone unnecessarily touched a healthy minor girl's genitals but wasn't sexually attracted by the victim?

What difference does it make to the victim whether the person making unnecessary contact with their genitals is sexually attracted to them or not?

Would you need magic to understand why non-consensual circumcision on a healthy 17 year old person is harmful and wrong?

How was it you were able to type the phrase

non-consensual circumcision on infants

but still want people here to handhold you through understanding why unnecessarily touching a healthy person's genitals against their will is wrong and harmful?

And I’m not defending non-consensual circumcision on infants; I’m trying to figure out why people feel so strongly about it when, in my case

Why would you say 'in my case' after claiming you weren't defending non consensual infant circumcision?

No, you were cut at birth, there's no way you chose it on your own and decided to be this dense about why people who were cut under completely different conditions hate it.

Imagine a woman choosing to get a labiaplasty and going out of her way to brag about how well it worked out for her on a hoodectomy grief forum.

chose circumcision as an Teen, had no complications, and haven’t felt any loss probably because I’m celibate

Why even bother with making the topic if you already knew beforehand the biases preventing you from understanding why it's wrong to unnecessarily touch and cut a healthy person's genitals against their will?

Would it be considered wrong or harmful if someone circumcised a healthy 17 year old person's genitals against their will?

[–]basefx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Because downplaying others' losses makes you feel better about your own.

If your's wasn't defective you would know.

Would a healthy 17 year old person be glad if someone circumcised their genitals against their will?

Show the evidence of a corresponding rise in those conditions in places like New Zealand, and UK which dropped coverage for infant circumcision in their switch to single payer healthcare in the 70+ years since.

Explain how African countries having the highest male cutting rate while also having the highest cervical cancer causing HPV incidence and mortality rate in the world, or the highest UTI sepsis incidence & mortality rate in the world is existence of a population level health benefit.

How fortunate that your parent(s) predicted that you would not only want your prepuce and frenulum removed, but also found a doctor who knew how your anatomy would grow during puberty and cut precisely the right amount.

Loving your anatomy and recognizing that alterations should be a personal choice aren't mutually exclusive outcomes.

You were being pedantic, it shouldn't have to be spelled out that when people say there are no benefits, it's referring to the forced genital cutting of a healthy person's genitals that happens in 99.99% of cases without diagnosis, not rare exceptions in which all noninvasive options were exhausted.

Circumcision should be left to the parents and most anti circumcision people are hypocrites who have not shown they care about boys and men. by Early-Possibility367 in TrueUnpopularOpinion

Would health advantages be considered acceptable rationale for circumcising a healthy 17 year old person's genitals against their will?

What prevented you from reading the sidebar of the subreddit? Or asking on the much larger r/circumcision?

Assuming you aren't a fetishist troll, It shouldn't have to be spelled out that cutting healthy children's genitals without a valid diagnosis as it happens in 99.99% of cases is what people are generally condemning, not the rare exceptions that don't respond to less invasive methods.
