But to steelman it a bit. If you ban male circumcision, it will be challenged in court and the very pro-religion SCOTUS would probably shoot the law down on religious liberties grounds.
Probably. It is interesting that the previous federal FGM law was ruled illegal because it didn't also ban male circumcision. The new one probably will too if it ever gets challenged in court. Maybe some judges have principles. Then again, judges just rule how they want and make up the justifications afterwards. It'll be interesting to see how these anti trans laws hold up when they inevitably get challenged.
Every time they've done so, they've put in specific exemptions for male circumcision. Really shows you where there loyalties lie.
We all know (((where))).
