Such a “covenant” is not valid to force on a newborn. The real reason “circumcision” is practiced is to curtail sexual pleasure. #i2 #CircumcisionIsUnholy #HisBodyHisChoice #BanMGM

I love when someone finds my work & reaches out for an interview. I hope to be in good enough energy in March for this interview. I'd like to utilize it as a segue back to the airwaves (after being gone due to life's issues & cancer). 🧡👶🏻👶🏽👶🏿🧡 #foreskin #humanrights #i2

#i2 It is highly controversial to publicly discuss this topic in western countries, I rebut the claims that are made in eastern countries where female circumcision occurs and they claim it has benefits plus look at some western research

#Circumcision as practiced in nearly cases in the United States is not health care but a wholly elective, cosmetic surgery that should not be covered by health insurance or Medicaid. It’s long past time for all health insurers to stop covering it. #i2
❝Starting November 1, 2024, WellCare North Carolina will no longer be covering circumcision. It refers to all circumcision including infant. I called them today. They will no longer cover any of it. It’s now considered a cosmetic surgery even on infants.❞ ~NC mom

Infant and child Circumcision the unnecessary surgery you get because doctors are willing to ignore medical ethics so that can get paid for performing a surgery based on the penile aesthetic preference of the parents of the child #ShameonDoctors #i2

This is pure #CutCope. Contrary to popular belief, #circumcised men have: -Less sensitivity -Higher ED risk -Less natural defense against STIs -Higher UTI risk -Risk of meatal stenosis -Less relationship satisfaction -Less ability to make a woman orgasm #i2 #MGM #BornPerfect

When the conversation is about #FGM, the focus is on the individual; the person whose body and whose human rights are being violated. When it’s about male infant #circumcision, the focus is on his parents, their #religiousfreedom and #parentalchoice. Why is that. 🤔 #i2
