How do I sue for my circumcision? I learned I was mutilated at 8 days which is in the bible. I am livid. Words cant describe my anger/sadnes?
@David S - There IS something that can be done, that's called being naive. FGM is illegal but MGM is not, don't BS me with your excuses.
@Anonymous - not offend* That's because America loves cutting baby penises as long as they're not female. I guarantee you there not all cut. That makes YOU the liar.
@PAMELA - Def of a *****, like seriously how do you have friends..prob a keyboard warrior..typical
@Athena - I never said sue b/c of it. It's call foreskin restoration, there are years of discomfort and pain to do it not to mention i've spent $300 and it's going to be higher when the stem cell procedure is fine-tuned and ready
@Caoedhen - I heard someone did win, then again FGM is illegal and so should it be for males, it's highly unethical and just fked up. Arn't you positive.
@STEVEN F - How the fk am I lying? I'm more truthful than you alive ethical that's for damn sure
@R P - No one ever fking ask ME?!
@Liam - I am jackas
@Fireball - Oh wow it's fireballs! Aren't you supposed to be in the religious section or did you just like me? But serious I'd rather molest my kid that mutilate it that's for damn sure. Matter of fact cutting penises never entered my mind...and ppl tell me im wrong, REALLY?!?
@Anonymous - Oh thank god you're a sane person that isn't bloodthirsty and into mutilating innocent babies
@Funnelweb - I was cut b/c of religious reasons. Definitely not Catholic. my grandparents highly disagree with the idea of always saved. Not Jewish either; they're Assembly of god/babtis. Never heard of the right to sue. I was cut when I was 8 days old. Rather of been raped tbh. Im 26. But regardless if I went through with it how the hell would I know what to even do? So I get screwed there too? Really?
@Funnelweb (Cont) - The penis is suppose to have foreskin. Every male has foreskin, cut later or not. Why not cut eyelids instead?!? Circumcisions always leave scarring. And it sure as flying fk not desired. Also thanks for being a decent human being.
@ Davros - Thx for the actual help. I have no reason or urge to cut penis for some reason. I don't see why I can't. If someone cut my arms off couldn't I sue for that too? Ppl have no concept of no. I just think they're barbaric physcopaths that might as well be locked in an insanosylum. There just to immoral
@Juli - Oh look a troll...and a vagina that needs to be circumcised and that's a lot of sass from someone that is protected under law. Fking pathetic. I bet you make fun down syndrome and starving kids too.
@Punkin eater - And that's where your ignorance beings...

Christianity doesn't require routine male circumcision. The Roman Catholic church forbade routine male circumcision for many centuries. But it became popular in English-speaking countries in the 19th century. It is more popular in the USA than in other English-speaking countries.
Were your parents Jewish? Was it done by a medical practitioner or by a Jewish rabbi? If your parents were Christian then they didn't properly understand their faith if they thought the Bible required circumcision. Even Seventh Day Adventists (who follow Old Testament law about dietary restrictions and the sabbath) don't advocate routine circumcision.
Note that modern circumcision is not the circumcision practiced in the Old Testament. In the Old Testament times the foreskin was cut back to expose the tip of the glans. But in 150 AD Jewish authorities extended circumcision to remove every part of the foreskin.
Under common law the statue of limitations for injury to an infant was six years after the person reaches legal adulthood, as they can sue in their own name from 18 years of age till they turn 24. But in many jurisdictions statute law has limited this limitation period further. So I don't know how old you have to be where you live before your right to sue expires.
If the circumcision was done negligently leading to permanent injury and you are in the limitation period you might have a case. Or if you had been born with hypospadias (a congenital deformity of the penis) then it would have been negligent to perform circumcision at all. But if it was done properly and achieved the desired result without causing scarring or deformity then you probably don't have a good case.

Well then grow up and realize there's nothing to be done. It's an accepted practice performed legally by someone authorized by law to carry it out. You'll get over it.

I'd love for you to testify to this before a jury of your peers... Aka 12 circumcized men and tell them how they too have mutilated genitals. I'm SURE you'll win their empathy, and not offence. From all 12 father's, AND their satisfied wives. Liar.

Oh dear, poor you, get over it, you cannot sue anyone, your parents had control of you as a baby, millions of men around the world are like you, they just live their lives.

You cannot sue for anger ad sadness.
You will have to show haw you have some sort of financial penalty because of your circumcision that you would not have if you were "whole."

It's been done, and it failed. You would also fail, but you are welcome to find an attorney that needs to make a house payment and pay him cash money up front to file the suit.
It won't go any further than that... but it's your money. Well, the attorney's money now.
