Careful, don't equate it to genital mutilation, or both teams start losing their minds.
I think the meme highlights the hypocrisy of exercising bodily autonomy. Though there’s no autonomy or presumed consent in the case of the infant, so that’s worse tbh
I'll be honest, I'm just shamelessly trying to stir up some shit with a handful of pro-mutilation savages from an earlier thread today.
Well carry on 🍿
It is mutilation.
Agreed.
The transitioning? No.
The child abuse? Yes.
By definition it is mutilation. The difference is consent.

Then removing a ruptured appendix is also mutilation by that logic.
Yeah... Because that's what it means. I don't know if your providing an example because you agree or you thought that was a gotcha.
Then I'm not sure what you point was supposed to be. If lifesaving surgery is mutilation then mutilation isn't inherently a bad thing and isn't an argument against gender affirming surgery.
I never made an argument for or against any surgery. My point, was consent. Please read the first response that I had made in this thread.
