I’m pissed off someone did this to me without my consent as a baby.
How has it harmed you? I’m also circumcised, and it’s only helped me.
You have fewer nerve endings in your penis. I’m curious how it’s helped you.
Well, if you consider his overall physical form, from a purely mathematical/ratio point of view. He is now less of a dick.
Not sure if this is Penis related, but I get the feeling he is more of a cunt.
Well, yeah. I mean, take a step back and forget about religious justifications and appeals to some nebulous ‘tradition’ for a moment. If I ran around and took a scalpel to the genitals of baby boys without a valid medical reason, I’d hopefully swiftly find myself locked up for a long, long time.
It’s genital mutilation. It’s been done for religious reasons, cultural reasons, social reasons, for slavery reasons, and more.
But cutting up babies’ genitals for any reason except medical intervention for relevant pathologies is genital mutilation.
I’ve had it done to me. It’s only helped me.
And thus you have a deep psychological need to defend the barbaric practice.
Having not experienced otherwise, how would you know?
How could you know either way?
I don’t know how it feels to never have my hair cut. It’s only cultural to get one’s hair cut regularly; but most people do as they feel it helps them look and feel better.
Well, of course, that’s crazy behaviour.
But if you did it in a religious ritualistic ceremony and sucked the blood off the tip of the babies dicks afterwards, well that wouldn’t be weird now, would it.
You could even call it “Metzitzah B’peh” and it would happen so regularly and kids would get herpetic infections from the mohel’s so often (and sometimes even dying) that the New York Health department would have to issue warnings about it, and it would still not be weird, even when the families of the babies affected would refuse to name the mohel’s to allow the health dept to investigate and have them banned from performing the practice on future babies.
But there is a medical reason! It’s to make masturbation bothersome. It would really upset the humors you know.
This is like telling people who get wisdom teeth extractions have been mutilated.
Naw. We’re okay.
I don’t think that’s a valid comparison. For people who need wisdom teeth extractions, leaving them in can end up painful and for some even leave them with unable to fully close their mouths to chew.
Nothing bad is going to happen if you leave a babies penis alone.
