Freedom is a very difficult thing, we should understand that we don't

unconsenting infant etc

To be against rape, because of reason, would also not constitute real
freedom btw. If you just don't rape people, because you reason it's bad,
then "reason" becomes authority. It should be natural for people, their
senses should make them _feel_ that this is all wrong. But the senses of
the people have been dulled down, so they use reason... so when they
want to argue against 'circumcision', people start asking for "studies"
for "statistical evidence"...
In some ways this also stems from Christianity maybe which banished the
body (don't masturbate, deny your sexual wishes etc) -- so we use Geist
(our mind/ like in Zeitgeist), we don't really even notice what our body
is - our senses are - telling us anymore.
