Comment on "Your body, my choice:" Hate and harassment towards women spreads online

  when the most visible time men speak up about it is when they insert themselves into a conversation about women.

  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.

      When people talk about joining the Fediverse one of the main reasons mentioned for not staying is that people will jump on them over a tiny mistake. That’s what I saw your comment to be.

      Telling people “don’t ever fucking mention another issue when a women is talking” is stupid. The more comments we get on lemmy the better. The more discussion the better. The medium allows discussion to fork without derailing anything. So if people want to respond to that comment and discuss then nothing is taken away from any of the other comments in this thread and people who don’t care can just minimize that comment and all the rest in that comment thread.
