If we can ban trans medical procedures, why haven't we banned circumcision?

Was just talking at dinner with family, and it seems a logical action to ban circumcision, as in most cases, doesn't have consent, and is a major (genitals are important) body modification. Can we ban it at the state level? Just a thought.

The first link says it's unverified, and also says "suggest", not your phrasing.

Did you read the study?

You're not on your home turf anymore. Even fewer people put up with your shit here.

Nah I get it. People don’t like science.

People don't like you or your ideals.

My ideas are cited science and facts. Go troll someone else.

From the last link:

"In contrast, there was some evidence that circumcision in adulthood was associated with an increased risk of invasive penile cancer"

Yeah, great.

Why should I read a whole study? It says it at the start so I don't need to. Abstracts exist for a reason.
