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

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.

  You could have just agreed that it’s crazy how far religious zealotry [has gone].
  
  And you could have followed this exact same advice.
