The battle has come to them. They can choose not to fight it, but that is called a retreat versus evil.

Yes, evil. Some evils are subjective but the unnecessary amputation of mass and nerves is an objective evil.

Sure, it is not as bad as Female Genital Mutilation, which is why FGM got banned first. Ultimately, it is the same thing, only a matter of degree.

A good analogy is to foot binding. Objectively, it is harmful and it is also started early. Still if you revert to the era and regions where it was popular, you will find the victims supportive of the practice, arguing that their feet work adequately, and that men like small feet! Does not make it right.
