A Change.org Petition to Biden to End "Involuntary Male Genital Circumcision/Mutilation" (MGM) in the USA. (except in the case of medical necessity) (Lets get this to 10k!)

Could a bill say just: "you can't cut off parts of other people's bodies without their permission" work? It would probably more easily pass since it's not clearly helping men. People don't seem to like helping men, but don't mind if it helps everyone.

There has been much research done over recent years as to the effects of mgm and it has been found to negatively impact certain men by changing the natural dynamic of the male anatomy. some men are more effected by the procedure than others, and while some men are fine with it being done, we should have the freedom of choice, and the purported medical benefits have been largely disproven.

I believe we should add intersex people to our arguments against MGM as well. Essentially we’re arguing that all human beings have the same right to bodily integrity as girls & women do.

I'd like to get him to at least see it, but didn't he just appoint a very pro-circumcision office of religious freedom head
