| 4 | What is the issue with circumcision?How can anyone not think this way?! I think it's because people are vulnerable to marketing, and circumcision has been marketed very convincingly for about 150 years. General ignorance about the foreskin (a large part of the medical community is guilty of this ignorance too) is another big problem. Advocates of the surgery have persuaded people to evaluate circumcision differently than any other form of non-therapeutic amputation. Most people would never evaluate forced mastectomies based only o… | /r/MensRights | 22/04/12 06:38 PM |
| 13 | What is the issue with circumcision?There are plenty of men who like the fact that they're circumcised (which is perfectly okay), and there are plenty of men who don't like the idea of being circumcised. Some of the people who dislike circumcision were circumcised at birth, for no medical reason, and never consented to the operation. That's essentially the problem - unnecessary, irreversible, non-therapeutic genital amputations are being performed on individuals who can't consent. Parents should not be allowed to decide how the ge… | /r/MensRights | 22/04/12 03:51 PM |
| 7 | How do men on here feel about circumcision?Why should religion change the argument? If something is wrong, why should that change depending on someone's religious beliefs? Jehovah's witnesses are not allowed to withhold blood transfusions when their children need them, even though their religion encourages them to do so. Christian scientists who unsuccessfully used prayer to cure their sick children instead of taking them to the hospital have been charged. It is also illegal for Muslims to circumcise their baby girls in most western nati… | /r/MensRights | 01/04/12 07:08 PM |
| 2 | Could we start calling male circumcision "male genital mutilation" exclusively? Or even refer to it as "infant genital mutilation?"Well, I'd also throw in non-therapeutic infant circumcision, and male genital cutting into the mix. I know that many here would disagree with me, but even though I'm extremely opposed to non-therapeutic infant circumcision, and realize that circumcision is mutilation by the dictionary definition of the term (a dried out, keratinized, desensitized, immobilized, scarred penis that reduces vaginal lubrication, and orgasm frequency for women has certainly been degraded), I shy away from calling it m… | /r/MensRights | 31/03/12 10:09 PM |
| 2 | What I immediately think whenever someone tries to argue that circumcision has health benefitsThere are ways to regrow your foreskin, and I recommend asking/reading about it here. I'm not aware of any studies on the subject, but many men who have been through the process have said that they are more sensitive afterwards. I guess having the glans covered up by the restored foreskin for most of the day helps to regain sensitivity. The circumcised glans develops a layer of keratinized skin from years of rubbing against underwear, but this layer sloughs off during the foreskin restoration pr… | /r/MensRights | 05/03/12 01:49 PM |
| 10 | What I immediately think whenever someone tries to argue that circumcision has health benefitsThe foreskin has a number of functions and benefits (NSFW). It protects the glans from abrasion and physical injury, like the eyelid protects the eye. The foreskin also protects the urinary meatus and glans from ammonia and feces while the child is wearing diapers. (This lack of protection in circumcised boys makes them prone to meatal stenosis) The foreskin has many sexual functions as well. It's extremely sensitive to fine touch and stretching. One study even concluded that the most sensitive … | /r/MensRights | 05/03/12 01:20 AM |

It sounds like you are determined to believe that the two are completely different, and I suspect that you will ignore any evidence that contradicts that belief.

| 10 | Colorado state senator (female) calls circumcision a "very important health procedure", takes advice on the issue from a female gynecologist, and has introduced a bill that would require state funding for "male circumcision."There ARE medical benefits of male circumcision, but there are also risks involved. This is a flawed way of looking at the issue, because it does not take the benefits of the foreskin into consideration. | /r/MensRights | 26/01/12 12:49 AM |
| 2 | Why is "It's my body" a good argument when it comes to abortion, but not to circumcision?What you propose would remove all consequences of sex from the man, and place them all on the woman. Birth control, and raising the child would become something that only women would have to worry about, in addition to having to carry the child to term. That's not equality, and it's not fair to the would-be child either. | /r/MensRights | 01/01/12 03:57 AM |
| 5 | Why is "It's my body" a good argument when it comes to abortion, but not to circumcision?The baby has half of his DNA, so he clearly did help produce it. The baby grows in the woman's body (because of course men don't have the capability), but it was produced by both the man and the woman. The embryo starts out as part of the woman's body, but it grows into a human being with its own rights, which makes both parents responsible for its well-being. | /r/MensRights | 01/01/12 03:33 AM |
| 3 | Why is "It's my body" a good argument when it comes to abortion, but not to circumcision?If a father feels like ditching the kid, it's now his right because it didn't come from his body, and until men can give birth, they don't need to take responsibility for kids. The reason it's in her body in the first place is because of a choice the man made, so he's partially responsible. The problem with removing any responsibility for men in this situation is that it would open up a loophole where a man could go around knocking up any women he hooked up with, without any repercussions.

| 5 | Why is "It's my body" a good argument when it comes to abortion, but not to circumcision?Feminists always compare male circumcision to the worst forms of female circumcision Remember that there's a huge difference between individual feminists, and the feminist lobby - they're apples and oranges too. There are plenty of feminists who are opposed to non-therapeutic male circumcision. Don't alienate people by overgeneralizing. | /r/MensRights | 31/12/11 11:05 PM |
| 0 | Why is "It's my body" a good argument when it comes to abortion, but not to circumcision?I can understand that it's frustrating that women have more reproductive rights in terms of abortion, but that's due to basic biology. When men can become impregnated, carry a baby to term, and give birth - we may have reproductive equality. Until then, biological differences make true equality absolutely impossible. Ultimately, a man can exercise his reproductive choice by choosing to wear a condom or not. If you don't want a kid, don't ejaculate in someone's vagina, cause guess what's going to… | /r/MensRights | 31/12/11 10:49 PM |
| 1 | Swazi king pushing mass circumcisionI was saying that the complication rates are much lower when performed on newborns. And how is is this supposed to justify a parent's right to cut off part of their child when there's nothing medically wrong with it? The rate of complications from neonatal or adult circumcision, while listed as small in many medical reviews, is still substantially higher than the likelihood that they will even need the surgery in the first place. Source? http://www.tlctugger.com/ | /r/MensRights | 17/07/11 03:12 PM |
| 1 | Swazi king pushing mass circumcisionThe procedure is more difficult when done later in life. It's extremely rare that circumcision will be required later. Non-therapeutic circumcision is not performed in Finland, so the circumcision rates here give a good example of how often the surgery is required. Only 1 in 16,666 men end up being circumcised for medical reasons. Circumcising a child to spare them the surgery later on when there is only a 0.006% chance that they will need it later on is illogical, and irresponsible. Also, if yo… | /r/MensRights | 17/07/11 02:51 PM |
| 4 | Swazi king pushing mass circumcisionThis is very sad. These measures will only increase the prevalence of HIV. The last report that I saw on HIV prevalence in Swaziland stated that 22% of circumcised men were infected with HIV, while "only" 20% of intact men were infected. (of course my citation for this has gone 404...) Someone needs to tell these people about condoms. They were also planning mass vasectomies recently to combat population problems - that's not a joke. | /r/MensRights | 17/07/11 12:04 AM |

Turn down your volume as the screams of pain are pretty loud.It's pretty disgusting that people attempt to justify this procedure by the potential medical benefits, while ignoring the certain harm of circumcision shown in the video - a painful wound inflicted on the most sensitive part of a child's body. ** TRIGGER WARNING: ** I disagree with calling it male genital mutilation though. To me, calling circumcised men "mutilated" is like calling a rape victim "vaginally defiled."

There are many problems that affect the labia minora, such as adhesions, cancer, vaginitis, injuries during childbirth, and cysts. If the labia are cut off, those problems will be drastically reduced or eliminated. Pretty simple principle - it's hard to have a labial adhesion when you have no labia.

That might be freedom and liberty for you as the parent, but it would be the exact opposite for your son.

I see so many parallels between school and prison (or at least my perception of prison, luckily I have no personal experience with that), it makes me think that the structure of our educational system needs to change considerably before bullying will be stopped. | /r/MensRights | 20/02/09 12:13 AM |
