Google says phimosis is fixed easily and is rare to begin with. I think being passionate on either side is silly
Harming babies unnecessarily tends to bring out passion in some.
I'm circumcised and happy about it because of conversations I've had various women about dicks in general and my dick in particular with a few of them. That being said if I ever have a son, he won't be circumcised. Unless his mom is Jewish I guess. But I don't understand the anger around the subject at all.
I’m circumcised, my son is not. If it is your religion, have at it. But forcing religious traditions onto those that don’t have a say is problematic. It’s getting better, but it’s still pushed in hospitals unnecessarily.
It's good you're able to talk sanely about it.
It's simply a subject of personal autonomy and body integrity.
Imagine being a grown man or just a teenager and being forced to perform that operation without your consent nor any explanation (as it's mostly useless out of social norms and potentially harmful). I guess you'd be furious, at least.
That's it.
But it's not happening to grown men or teenagers against their will. It's happening to people when they won't remember it and the idea is it prevents minor annoyances about being a man. Archaic and unnecessary? Definitely. But getting mad at people isn't going to change their mind and doesn't help people understand it's unnecessary. That said, being someone who has a mentally unhealthy aversion to bathing, I'm really glad I don't have to even think about "smegma" I didn't even know it was a thing until I was fully grown.
Edit: to be clear, I don't think anyone should do that to their kids. If you can't teach your kid to clean themselves you probably shouldn't have them to begin with. I just think it's more helpful for future kids if their parents aren't circumcising them because they don't want to agree with the annoying angry people online. It would be more helpful to spread knowledge without judgement or making people feel shameful for something they thought was good. That's how you get people to double down.
This is the dumbest fucking list of bullshit
Thanks for this lol. I started to respond yesterday but as I was thinking about their arguments halfway through I decided it wasn't worth my time or energy (validated by their response to this comment LOL).
You're being 100% dishonest and misinformative in your post.
Why u guys gotta double down on your complete lies when called out?
It's pathetic. Mind u own business and cope with ur sad doggy penis.
Lol. This mf here getting their bs called out point by point with simple rhetorical counters and retorts with a solid "No u. And you have a dumb pee pee." Epic.
