I believe there is a connection between circumcision and trans. If you're gonna cut off the skin it's not a huge leap to cut off the whole thing.
Are we really going to try to rewrite history?
Circumcision, as it is practiced outside Judaism, was pushed by Will Keith Kellogg (yes, the cereal guy) to stop young males from masturbating.
I'm speaking about the effects of circumcision, regardless of its origin or purposes. It has a monumental and devastating impact on the psyche, and I will argue it is a causal factor for gender dysphoria.
Leaving aside the ensuing complications of trauma, our cultural attitude creates the distinct impression of men being inherently bad if their organ is intact and they can enjoy themselves sans women. Our indifference to the pain and suffering of infant boys under the knife informs us of how little we should care about their wellbeing. Why would anyone wish to identify with that?
