  That already happened to like 90% of us thanks to the same cultists.

    For funsies, I websearched “movement stop male circumcism” and the three top hits were articles written by or groups founded by women speaking up for men.

    I’d love to see a real effort to stop genital mutilation of all babies. When the most visible time men speak up about it though is when they insert themselves into a conversation about women, it does not build sympathy for the issue.

    I mean this sincerely. If you are at all serious about stopping the genital mutilation of babies, I suggest you rethink your strategy.

      That’s not true, its just the only time you notice. It was a completely relevant to the comment. Do you really think you’d respond like this if a women replied with a relevant thing that happens to them? You could have just agreed that it’s crazy how far religious zealotry.

        Read the fucking room. The story is about how a hateful piece of shit is gloating about women losing rights in the rapeyest way possible. Comparing it to how you’re sad that you don’t have a foreskin comes off as the whining it is.

        I think circumcision is barbaric and pointless, but no one is inclined to have sympathy for your cause in this context.

        The issue at hand is body autonomy. Circumcision falls perfectly in line with that and it’s an experience men have that may give them some insight into how women are feeling. Why not tackle them at once (along with anything else that comes up regarding that issue). Making people stand in line to wait for everyone to get on board with their particular grievance is hardly productive.

        You could have just agreed that it’s crazy how far religious zealotry [has gone].

        And you could have followed this exact same advice.

    Oh, then these misogynists need to watch their words and actions lest they lose even more. Eunuchs can’t forcibly impregnate anyone.
