Yet they are also at times 100% cosmetic.

Here is an article where parents decided to let the kid grow up to decide if he wanted the cleft palate removed.

Basically, the palate provided no medical issues.

https://www.todaysparent.com/family/parenting/i-agonized-over-whether-my-infant-son-should-get-cosmetic-surgery/

Is this mutilation if the parents didn't let him decide?
Why or why not?

@UnfairRepresent


because of the definition of the word?

This is a very very basic concepts

Reconstructing things for medical benefit is the opposite of mutilating things for no benefit

Parents opting not to reconstruct because there was no medical gain in a random case is fair enough but it's not comparable

Likewise there are rare cases/conditions were circumcision is medically beneficial and in those cases its acceptable

again, as someine who had cleft palate surgery, this is blatantly wrong and i doubt you know anything on the subject at all

I literally linked the article.

https://www.todaysparent.com/family/parenting/i-agonized-over-whether-my-infant-son-should-get-cosmetic-surgery/

People have them that do have complications and require surgery.

In the article, that was NOT the case.

But maybe you kinda knew that but wanted to ignore it? I hope not.

article literally acknowledges cleft palate to be a birth defect. no matter how you try to spin it, foreskin is not a birth defect/abnormality lol

Your definition is bad, but yes by your botched definition they would have to be the same thing.

Mutilation requires difigurement or removal of functioning part of a body. Circumcision does neither unless you ignorantly think people find circumcized dicks ugly or something.

Again, babies don't consent to being born.


Again, This is such a bullshit argument

Yes parents do things without their child's consent but that's a responsibility not a privilege.

Parents choose what their infant eats but cant feed it rusty nails and cat blood

Parents choose what shoes the infants wear but that doesn't mean they get to crush infants legs with a hammer to make toilet roll cardboard fit

Parents do not have the right to do whatever the fuck they want to their kids. Their ability to ignore the child's consent Is for the child's benefit, not the parents

Circumcision is a cosmetic procedure with no medical benefit that the kid can do as an adult if he wants to

There is no justification for it and you liking being circumcised doesn't change that

"Well it didn't consent to being born means we can mutilate boys genitals" is the definition of a non sequitur

I'm not wholesale giving up my right to make the best decision for my children. In the case of a cosmetic cleft pallet, I would likely make the decision that my child would probably benefit from have the surgery performed. As earlier surgery can make a difference and waiting just to get my kid's consent to do something they would likely want to have done wouldn't make sense.

The only benefit of infant circumcision, is that the patient won't remember the pain (not that it is painless). There is no medical or cosmetic benefit to having it done as a baby compared to a teenager or an adult. If my child hits 14 years old and decides he wants the procedure done he doesn't lose out on anything. So there is no reason to have it done as an infant.

This is what you quoted of me:

There are cleft palates that have 0 medical issues.

The reason people have it removed is cosmetic reasons. To make their child what they think is more attractive.

In the case where there is 0 medical issues, yes that is the reason.

Slicing off a part of the genitals to permanently change how they look irreversibly is disfigurement.

Going "it still works" is like claiming cutting off someone's fingertips isnt disfigurement because "it still works "

all of this just to say you must do it to infants, no explanation on why you cant just wait to adulthood

No one wants to go get circumsized later in life. And if they want to more reason to have already done it. Ive never ever even heard of a dude mad that he was circumsized.

This is the dumbest arguement and its just trolling and works 100% of the time.

What is the negative for doing it to an infant?

Lets pretend you are right and it is mutilation as you pretend it to be.
Ok.

But it is not disfigurement. There is no loss of functionality either.
