Please help.
I am literally sorry that the MRA fuckheads are trying to take over the anti-circumcusion movement. I have it out with them and their misogynist takes all the fucking time.
That said, don't circumcise your unconsenting infant boy. Wait for him to be old enough to make his own decision. My fucking doctor cut too tight and I just can't orgasm during sex. This is a lot more common than people realise.
spoiler
This is a lot more common than people realise.
I am extremely reluctant/embarrassed to talk about this for some reason even on this site, maybe because of the association with these fucking MRA people, but yeah it bothers me a lot too. It's not just a "nothing" surgery (can't find better words rn), it has very real consequences and it's yet another permanent mark left on me by this omnicidal culture (Amerikkka). I have worse things to worry about these days but I still kinda wish I didn't click on this post to be reminded.
But again, fuck this misogynist pieces of shit using this practice as a way to further their reactionary politics.
I don't know why I'm writing this. I guess I just needed to put it out there. You have now finished reading my most cringe post.
Nah, I get you. People are very resistant to talk about their dicks in public, criticise decisions their parents made, and go against the Amerikkkan consensus.
Since the majority of non religious circumcision is happening in middle Amerika, much of the response is gonna be reactionary af. The anti cutting response from other countries and parts of the US on the coast is at least pretty liberal. All I ask of non supporters is that they realise this.
I get that being a white dude gives me a lot of privilege. I'm glad that I have a roof over my head and food to eat. I get that sex isn't everything, but it would be nice to enjoy it.
Pro child circumcision people complain about how it’s painful to get when you’re older lol. Tough shit. If a grown ass man can sit through piercings and tattoos then surely he can go get some dick skin removed
I-I-IT’S DI-DIFFER-
I don’t care.
if trans women can handle their genitals being origami'd into a vagina, men can handle circumcision in adulthood
The anti-circumcision movement has always presented kind of a problem for me; I agree with them wholeheartedly, but the way they go about it is…eh. Like I know (or really hope) they don’t protest with photos of mutilated baby dicks the way weird pro lifers show photos of aborted fetuses, but if you told me protesters at the Iowa State Capitol were holding up photos of baby foreskin I’d prrrrrobably believe you? Yeah.
I'm troubled by the way you group the whole uncirc movement together, or blame them for things they haven't yet done. It seems to be in bad faith.
No? I just said that I agree with them in principle, but, and this was meant to be somewhat tongue in cheek, they sound kinda weird when they talk about baby penises.
I honestly legit wish this wasn’t a problem, and I know they’re acting in good faith (again, I support them).
It's fine. I'm really touchy about not being about to enjoy sex and my family being really gaslighting about it all.
Trans women in America:
Also not reading the thread beyond this, that's enough psychic pain for me today thanks. Oh and this guy should be thrown in a pit
We're missing context here, for all we know this went down at Wendy's last week.
hmm I tried dunking but this guy might not be smart enough for that even to be fun. like if they can't even process that you just compared them to a troglodyte, what's left to do?
I'm not mad enough anymore. I knew this guy was short a couple of crayons from the OP but now I just feel mean.
Then best to go on with your day
We cannot rescue everyone from their benighted ignorance
Women and children tend to die more when there's a war on. You really think the non-adult-male population of Baghdad had a great time the day the city fell to the fucking Mongols? Hint: they didn't.
Men have legit issues. I am a man. I have issues. I am willing to believe a man when he tells me he's going through some shit. But fuck every MRA type that pulls this disingenuous bullshit about "the draft." Treating life like some kind of misery Olympics pissing contest is yet another symptom of the toxic masculinity bullshit that's bad for everyone.
When you're technically literally correct and could maybe treat how that seems to make you feel to maybe relate to women in some small way but you post this.
reddit and being weird about male circumcision
name a more iconic duo
edit: shit what have I done
claiming to care about human rights but dismissing the harms of infant circumcision because it's so normalized?
Read the room, obviously child mutilation is wrong but comparing it to SA is some real MRA
I hate how a legitimate grievance has been hijacked by misogynist far-right assholes
Ya they're fucking toxic and I deal with them all the time in the anti-circ movement.
the reason it can't find wider support is that it is in practice not detrimental to most circumcised peoples' quality of life. as an issue it finds a home in masculinist grievance politics because it serves as the perfect metaphor for their sense that they have been permanently victimized and unprotected since birth.
Surveys show that ten percent of adults regret that it was done to them as a kid, and the number is getting bigger as people learn more about it. To me there's no question: don't do aesthetic surgery on unconsenting babies.
in the screenshot he's talking about FGM.
if anything he's erasing SA
in the screenshot he's talking about FGM.
I don't think so?
His entire account history seems to be so deeply misogynistic, that if anything he'd probably be pro-fgm just to make womens lifes worse
that's the distinction he's making on "pretty much all Western women" is where we get that from. He had his genitals cut, "we" don't do that over here to girls.
i'm sure he doesn't actually care about it as an issue other than to be racist.
The guy is definitely racist, but again, his entire account history is hating women. His racism is secondary to his misogyni.
right, he doesn't care about FGM he was just just using (the absence of it in the "west") as a cudgel
whoa wait who said anything about "worse"? It's a violation of bodily autonomy and that should be sufficient
he's doing racism, saying he had his genitals mutilated which is something dirty muslims do but doesn't happen in "the west" so much
he literally - in those exact words - said it's worse than
CW: SA
rape
and that it's a greater harm than western women know. he's doing a lot more than being racist.
and if you click into the thread, you'd see that he's downplaying SA to the point that he said it's worse to break a leg.
seriously dude read the OP. I'm not talking about subtext. you've failed to read the actual text.
i have only read the screenshot and i'm gonna not click through, that sounds like a bad time.
you've missed the text in picking up the subtext. the comparison of circumcision to sexual violence is wild on it's face. it gets wilder when you know he means all SV. I can't tell if you're missing the misogyny and how inappropriate it is to use this thread to go off about how terrible circumcision is - a practice I am unequivocally not defending - or if you straight up can't read.
I will of course not defend any antifeminism he's saying elsewhere, but I do take the text to be about genital cutting, and i don't see how that could ever not fall under sexual violence when what's his ass kellogg was fervently anti-masturbation and him/his ideology are why it became a thing in protestant mayoland.
JohnBrownNote isn't defending the SA comment. Stop badjacketing them.
I don't think the intent is there, johnny here is just anti circumcision (and worded it very unfortunately) which is a good thing and even trans positive because you get better outcomes with SRS later in life without infant mutilation involved
I resent that I understand that the dog whistle is about Muslims. My brain is broken.
