A cut is not symbolic. A cut is real. Symbolism lies deep in the dungeons of the human psyche. We have yet to explore what lies in the human psyche that compels people to sexually torture and maim their children. A person is born pure.
Nothing can make a person more pure.
Mortal wounds do not make a person more pure. No religion, belief, culture, or person, or authority owns the genitals of another person. No religion, belief, culture, person, or authority has the right to order the genitals of another to be wounded or cut off and tossed in the trash. A person's right to practice their beliefs, culture, and religion end at the epidermis of other persons. The prepuce is not a hood above the genitals.
