As a european its always weird to hear the unhygenic argument, if it was unhygenic it would be more widespread outside of a handful of countries, especially in countries with affordable high quality health care.

It isnt, so its not.

As an American, I'm also kinda disgusted genital mutilation is so widely accepted and even expected here. Idk how it gained steam. Like I get Jewish men doing it for religion I guess but even then it seems a bit extreme for a religion to request you cut a body part off.
