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.
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.
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.
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
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.

in the screenshot he's talking about FGM.
if anything he's erasing SA
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

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
omg hexbear circumcision is not worse than SA. please be normal.

whoa wait who said anything about "worse"? It's a violation of bodily autonomy and that should be sufficient
read the OP! it's literally the subject of this thread!
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.

JohnBrownNote isn't defending the SA comment. Stop badjacketing them.
