    No, you just claimed that men hold the reins. This was almost certainly true once. At least in the U.S., not anymore - male mutilation has become a cultural issue as the “scientific” basis is questioned and the absolute rate drops. https://www.cdc.gov/nchs/data/hestat/circumcision_2013/circumcision_2013.pdf

    Men are just more likely to give strong pushback to criticism of the practice because it’s more personal

    Do you have any sources for that argument? Or just an assertion about their psychosexual rationalizations?

    It also happens to be that almost all of the medical authorities and researchers responsible for endorsing and promoting circumcision are circumcised men

    Do you know that? Or do you just infer that they’re cut?
