| 1 | ... God Damn it "feminists".I definitely agree with you that it should be left until an age when consent can be given based on risks/advantages presented to the recipient. Thanks for the link, too; I was previously unaware of that page! | /r/MensRights | 27/09/12 05:53 PM |
| 0 | ... God Damn it "feminists".I don't what studies you are reading, but the little research I did said that FGM, because of the extent of the mutilation, often causes bleeding to occur during sex. That would increase the chance of infection substantially. | /r/MensRights | 26/09/12 04:53 PM |
| 1 | ... God Damn it "feminists".You may be in the right here, as the research I did was only very basic. The WHO website said that it decreased the risk of infection for circumcised males in heterosexual relations by about 60%. If their figures are way off base, I apologize. And that last citation there seems a bit sketchy; the last of the qualifications given for the statistic is that they had had sex to support themselves. I mean, is prostitution not going to increase risk? | /r/MensRights | 26/09/12 04:40 PM |
| 0 | ... God Damn it "feminists".The problem is that the funds are not really all that comparable. It's a lot easier and more inexpensive to teach a basic surgical procedure than it is to start a widespread water-sanitation campaign. That said, I don't know the actual figures, so you could well be right (pun not intended) | /r/MensRights | 26/09/12 04:29 PM |
| -3 | ... God Damn it "feminists".Shooting an assault rifle is a fully conscious and malicious act. That action is more comparable to an HIV-positive person committing rapes in order to spread their disease. I'm not sure how to change your metaphor/allegory-whatever into something actually relevant without making it ridiculous, so I'll just leave it there. | /r/MensRights | 26/09/12 06:44 AM |
| -1 | ... God Damn it "feminists".I'm not suggesting using it as the only line of defence. Education and sexual safety are the most important weapons in eliminating the AIDS epidemic in the worst-afflicted areas. Mistakes still happen, however, and I stick to what I said: the value of human life trumps having a zero-tolerance for circumcision. | /r/MensRights | 26/09/12 06:34 AM |
| -6 | ... God Damn it "feminists".There are already a lot of good causes working towards that, don't worry. The immediate issue is that people are dying, and that circumcision could stop at least some of it. It's not a terribly complicated procedure, and while maybe it is messed up in a civilized culture where it is largely unnecessary, I think that saving lives is more important than principle, in this case at least. | /r/MensRights | 26/09/12 06:12 AM |
