Intactivism is a movement for bringing about sociopolitical change to ensure people have the right to bodily integrity. Female, intersex, and male genital mutilation are grave violations of this right. Genital mutilation, for which "circumcision" is a euphemism, is cruel and barbaric. It is especially heinous as the genitals are a private and intimate part of the human body and are immensely important for the sexual and overall human experience.

Okay, a question about this sub's moral stance -- what about trans people? (lemm.ee)

So I see the sidebar says this sub stands for bodily integrity at all costs and states that, and I'm paraphrasing here, that genital mutilation regardless of sex is always wrong. Okay, that's fair.

But like, what about trans or intersex people? Or people who voluntarily get surgery to mod their bodies for any reason, voluntarily? What's the sub's view on that?
