Recently I was talking to a friend about some names that I like for if and when I have children. One of them is a unisex name for a boy (similar on the gender spectrum to my own). She said that giving a boy a name that is more common for girls is cruel and shouldn't be done since he doesn't have a say in it. This same woman wants to circumcise any future son(s) of hers, which means that when she says doing something that "he doesn't have a say in" she's being hypocritical. And what I want to do is much easier to change for himself in the future if he doesn't like it than what she wants to do (and even then the latter is not completely reversible).
