Kai Möller: Let’s talk about circumcision

  • Zitat

    They revealed that there is considerable debate among Jews and Muslims about the pros and cons of circumcision. Some are opposed to circumcision or curious and open-minded about it. (Surely these people are not antisemitic or Islamophobic?) People came up to me and talked, often very movingly, about their personal struggles with the question, or the disagreements within their families. When we leave identity politics aside, refrain from lazily accusing each other of prejudice or bigotry, and begin to actually talk to each other in an honest and straightforward way, such encounters can happen.

    Indeed, as the history of female circumcision suggests, if male circumcision
    were confined to developing nations, it would by now have emerged as an in-
    ternational cause celebre, stirring passionate opposition from feminists, physicians, politicians, and the global human rights community. If routine medical
    circumcision didn't exist today, no one would dare to invent it.
