Well, yeah. Here it’s only done for religious or medical reasons. As I understand it, Americans do it because some guy selling breakfast cereal told them to.
Never heard of it associated with anyone but the Jewish people, not sure if it’s different in other European countries. Also it’s not liked/disliked, for most it’s a neutral medical procedure, never heard any rant about circumcision from any party on the right.
in europe it can get very islamophobic. but it’s europe, so everything has a tendency towards islamophobia (and/or antiromaniism)
I think generally the preferred term is Antiziganism
ah right, to me that world looks like it has a slur in the middle of it but i do see it more often
Oh? Circumcision is associated with Muslims in Europe? I haven’t experienced that, but I also didn’t grow up there nor had a child there…

you gotta go learn about the Kellogg cereal guy
is that guy why my catholic parents were convinced to do it to me fresh out of the womb??
i always wondered wtf. thought it was a late 80s to 90s trend. was truly robbed of a good girldick and a mesh of tactile nerves i shall never know
yup
i think most circumcisions in europe are either for religious reasons (and so mostly in muslim families) or for emergency medical reasons
