The Belgian Foreign Minister Maxime Prévot (Francophone centrist) has summoned the US Ambassador Bill White for a meeting in response to comment Mr White made on the social media platform X.
I’m against circumcision too, but it’s not against the law. Many people believe it is healthier for the child, and in some cases they are right, but by and large it should be the parents and doctors decision, not a lawmakers. I don’t agree with religious exemption, but the law sure does.
It should be the decision of the person whose foreskin is in question. If they’re a minor, should only be allowed if there is medical need. If they’re an adult and aren’t being coerced into it, then so be it, it’s their body. But this shit should not be happening to minors for “ritual” purposes
Babies can’t ask though? I agree with you in principal, but the world is the way it is. Our medical professionals should not be bombarded with “opinions” and they should give clinical care as needed. Ask someone who got circumcized as an adult how it felt? It’s not much fun. Religion is a voting block with power and they ua e forced mandates. That’s where you need to focus your battle, not getting mad at me online. I don’t have any say on the matter, only an opinion.
If the world is shit we need to make it better. If “bombarding medical professionals with opinions” stops them in being accomplices in the mutilatiion of children it makes the world better.

I’m not mad at you. I’m mad at religion getting a free pass to mutilate children who can’t consent to be mutilated.

So, do it to babies, then? Wtf?
The idea is they don’t use the thing like a young boy does even. That’s it. Not suggesting mutilating babies, just a realist here.
