It could be a religious reason and there are multiple faults with non-circumcision as well. Plus if you hate doing it so much then you really should find a new career
We don't allow female circumcision for religious reasons. Why is mutilating a baby boy because of religion ok? For a general male without any special health issues, there is no reason to circumcise except religion. Circumcision removes vital nerve endings, functional bits of flesh and turns the head of the penis from an internal organ to an external organ. It can lead to erectile disfunction or worse. Botched circumcisions can cause the penis to be removed completely. The only non-religious arguments are 'it looks gross', which can be dismissed right away, and that it is cleaner, which is only true if the male doesn't bathe at least once a year.
Well it seems like hypocrisy to force your opinion on other people, if the parents want to do it then it is the parents choice not yours. Plus what's the kid going to anyway, sue them. I don't know where your from but I fairly certain Female Circumcision is illegal in the States and Male Circumcision is quite common. I have also yet to understand why you chose a career field you knew would involve things you dislike.
According to law female circumcision is illegal while male is not. It’s completely up to the parents, get over it. I agree, if op doesn’t like doing it then they should request of their employer not be put in that position, or find another career
If it were the other way around, would you 'get over it'? Genital mutilation is genital mutilation and it should be illegal unless done on a consenting adult.
But parents are consenting to it, they are called MINORS for a reason. Parents have reasonable authority to make decisions for their kids based on what they believe is right
Male circumcision performed on children is a form of genital mutilation, no matter whether it's a tradition or not. The foreskin serves a purpose and all the alleged reasons why it should be removed are not real. If OP cannot handle circumcisions she should search for a different job but that's not necessarily the best option. Since she's reasonable enough to reject this form of mutilation she might be able to influence the decisions of some parents or at least help shape public perception.
