I love when this gets brought up like it's some sort of gotcha.

Yes, I agree. I don't think we should even allow a religious exemption.

ETA: Someone else mentioned not allowing Medicaid to cover it, which seems like a fantastic idea. Even if we did allow circumcision with a religious exemption, there's absolutely no reason that anybody else should ever have to pay for it.

No gotcha. The same people saying children are being forced into transitioning are literally forcing a decision on an infant. Blatant hypocrisy.

Actually there's many examples of botched circumcisions where they force the boy to be a girl bc docs fucked up. It's still an unconsented to genital surgery on infants that permanently alters sensitivity

Then no one can use the “making decisions for little kids” excuse. There’s no reason for it anyway.
