    If my son wants to be cut

    Why the hell would he want to? If there’s no medical reason, there’s no reason at all.

      At that point, he would be an adult making a decision. It doesn’t matter why for us in regards to his choice. Maybe he becomes religious or succumbs to social pressure. He could get a Prince Albert, too, or those weird beads.

      As a parent it’s their job to protect him from harmful societal norms and religious indoctrination until he becomes an adult. Hopefully the education sticks long enough for him to deeply understand and respect his body, to seek out more helpful mentorship when needed, and pass along that education and protection to his future potential children.

      Tell that to the chick who turned herself into Barbie or those twins that did… whatever it was to themselves and thought it looked anything but horrifying.

      Yes, I’m straight up saying they’re objectively ugly af. Don’t even care if that’s some kind of discrimination. They’re just dumb, they made a stupid mistake, and I don’t even think they’ve admitted it to themselves yet.

      They had every right to do it though. It was just a bad idea in every single humanly possible way.
