Circumcision

[The Ancient]

FYI It's not normal for your dad to touch you like that. You should probably see a therapist about it. You know, talk it out.

There's nothing to talk about, I don't have a problem.

DON'T JUDGE ME.

Getting cut next Friday. Will report back afterwards.

i find it hard to understand why someone would willingly have their genitals mutilated in order to conform to societal norms.

Who uses the word "mutilation" in the context of circumcision, seriously? It's a word to describe disfigurement. Irreparable damage. Lost limbs. The only reason to use it in this instance is to come up with as grotesque a word as you can to make an invalid point.

Presuming you're not a virgin, report back in a year to see if sex is any less fulfilling.

Umm... hold up there chief. To use your owns terms, circumcision IS disfigurement and it IS irreparable damage.

If a doctor cut off the labia of a new born girl, would that not be genital mutilation? Why yes it would. It's the same exact thing.

That's exactly what it's called when girls are "circumcised." It's of course different because there's no western religious tradition for circumcising girls...

Yet!

Just wait for some prominent Christian to get a "vision" from Jesus saying to circumcise girls.

I'm long overdue to chime in here.

Of course uncut penises are ugly. But no uglier than all penises, which are all pretty fucking hideous.

And no, I won't be circumsizing my kid. Even though his father will be a Jew.

Unless of course it isn't considered disfigured, nor the result qualified as "damage".


Let me ask you, is there a medically valid reason (currently valid or traditional, w/e) for cutting off labia?




My dick is better than yours.



Bigger too.

Is there one for male circumcision? Assuming you have access to running water, i.e. you shower more than once a month. Remember that studies finding health benefits have been done in regions where people lack regular access to water and hygiene is just about non-existent. I'll grant that in such cases, there is a benefit. But in the developed world?

Circumcision in America is like the neck tie. It really serves no purpose anymore, and is a vestigial practice that has lost all it's meaning over the centuries.

But, the men with one look better and command more respect.

Oh damn, so that is why I got so many disturbed looks when I walked in that board meeting with my uncircumsized dick out of my pants.
