It should, but it won't because every time someone tries to outlaw circumcision Jews will kvetch about it and call them a nazi

Damn. I’m not even an atheist and I agree with OP. Your take is just antisemitic.

We should take this a step further though. Any kind of genital mutilation should be illegal, including bottom surgery.

It's not my take on it, it actually happened in Germany where both Muslims and Jews cried out that depriving them of their right to snip baby dicks is nazi persecution

[–] CaptObvious@literature.cafe 5 points 1 year ago

It’s also happened in a few places in the US. Cities or states tried to outlaw the practice and religious communities screeched about not being allowed to carve up babies’ bodies.

You mean illegal without consent right?

Why does any kind of bottom surgery have to be illegal? Why not just limit it to consenting people above the age of majority?

Grouping bottom surgery with genital mutilation makes you sound like an alt-right troll, and it bugs me that this is well received on this website.

Edit: "I'm not even an atheist" means absolutely nothing. You're just teaming up with an atheist in an online argument to bash Jews.

Bottom surgery should only be illegal if it's done nonconsensually. Adults should be able to do whatever they want as long as it doesn't pose a significant risk to their health.

Fixed that for you. Don't give conservatives ammo to legislate my right to tattoos away.

[–] Captain_Waffles@lemmy.world -4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Tattoos do not pose a significant risk to your health. Yes, there is a risk, there's also a risk from riding a bike or going swimming. If it would put a person at significant risk for major health issues it should not be legal.

[–] starman2112@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

The problem is giving conservatives the opportunity to define "significant risk"
