If you define your cultural identity by the need to unnecessarily mutilate the genitals of children, then your culture is shit and does not deserve respect or acceptance.
Take a step back and consider what it is you're defending here.
No. The bigotry would be not applying that logic across the board; doing it ICC style.
You are engaging in a brand of 'bebevolent' fetishization of 'barbaric' peoples and othering them, applying different values to them than to yourself. This is bigotry, even if it's not hateful. Its genuinely disgusting.
I can imagine someone like you defending some of the things that my culture of origin did to me as a child this same way, and I'm white, so you wouldn't; you'd apply values to me like I'm an actual person, but imagining someone who did? I'd fucking kill them
