Do does that mean all circumcised males are brainwashed and were all subjugated and deprived of rights as children?

  > brainwashed No but the parents who did it may have been. > subjugated and deprived of rights as children Those who were mutilated without giving consent were harmed in a way that could be significant. I certainly would not consent to it as an adult.

    > I certainly would not consent to it as an adult. Nor would I. However, if I could go back in time and retroactively give my parents consent to do it when I wouldn't remember it, then I would.

      Why not just go under anesthesia and have it done? You won't remember a thing!

      Very personal question, but if you don't mind sharing: Why do you want to be circumcised? As it is a minor surgery and very low risk, and as I understand it, the pain is easily managed with medication so why won't you consider it? I am not encouraging anyone to do anything, just interested in your perspective.
