The definition of mutilate is "inflict a violent and disfiguring injury on."

Circumcision being the forced removal of the most sensitive part of the males genitals, that literally disfigures it, I feel like saying it's mutilation is just the correct use of the word.

Disfigure means it's left worse off. It's literally more healthy and generally seen as more aesthetically pleasing. So no, that's not the correct use of the word. That's like saying cutting an umbilical cord is disfiguring lol.

No it is not considered more healthy, and being more "aesthetically pleasing" may be the general consensus among religious nuts and other men who were multilated and have trouble dealing with that reality, but it is not based in fact when assessing the topic on a global scale.

If you want to talk about healthy I hear that if you remove the penis entirely you can no longer get an STD. Maybe we should start doing that, since obviously it's more healthy.

An umbilical cord falls off naturally, it is not meant to stay with your body forever. Your foreskin however is the most sensitive part of your penis and is a permanent part of your body, so your comparison against an umbilical cord is unintelligent.

You seem a little emotional so we can't have an actual discussion, but I suggest you actually look at the studies that objectively prove it's a health benefit. You won't actually read them, but that's what the current science determines. This is like when an anti vaxer gets too emotional when you show them actual objective evidence.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯ sorry you were multilated bro, you have shown no evidence. Link a research paper if you want to prove a point
