In the country I'm currently living in, it's a common practice to mutilate the genitals of boys when they're born.
What you mean circumcision?
Yeah.
You do realise that that still gets done medically? It's a sensible procedure that has become wrapped in tradition, though a number of those traditions do present risks that modern medicine can remove.
I don't think the means of performing the procedure, nor the fact that it's "tradition" excuse it from the label of mutilation. I follow the definition of mutiliation that states "to injure, disfigure, or make imperfect by removing or irreparably damaging parts." Regardless of what tradition may dictate, circumcision removes the most sensitive part of a penis, which I think constitutes the irreparable damage of parts. Unless you can reverse circumcision, which I'm not aware is possible.
The fact that it can potentially prevent nasty illness is the part that can excuse it. Tradition doesn't excuse shit.
The babies don't remember it, it doesn't traumatize them... It honestly helps in the long run, in more than just medical ways. Waiting until they're older and can make the decision doesn't really work, since it would hurt, and they would remember it. No one would ever have it done. I think it's best to do when they're too young to remember. It's a legit medical thing, it's not some weirdo on the side of the street, you know? Don't see why people are so angry over it.

That sounds like a Massive choking hazard.
