Circumcision

[jedusor]

I can't believe this is even debatable. I can't believe that in a society we consider civilized, I have to actually present a structured argument against cutting off pieces of babies when they're born.

In many US hospitals it's assumed you're going to have boys circumcised and you need to argue with the staff before the baby is born to ensure it doesn't happen.

Similar to the point about trying to force an unwanted C-section. Hospitals are often a place of unnecessary coercion.
