Her problem is she doesn't seem to have enough cognitive dissonance to make her admit she's wrong.

We need more cognitive dissonance in this world, not less. Cognitive dissonance motivates people to stop being hypocrites. It's the bad feeling you get when you realize you're a hypocrite.

The reason for the difference in coloration is because the tissue between the head of the penis and the circumcision scar is a remnant of the foreskin's smooth mucosa.

| 2 | Child protection organisation say male genital mutilation is not child abuse !Yep. A baby's foreskin doesn't need to be retracted to clean under it because in infancy, the foreskin and the head of the penis are basically one structure, and the opening of the baby's foreskin is very small, with a muscle that opens during urination, and closes back up afterwards, to keep contaminants from getting inside the penis.
