| 1 | "My Body My Choice"Okay, you're right, I just mean that while we remove Catholics from my little list if you want, I'll even go edit the post since it's so controversial apparently, but it was a very minimal talking point in the greater scheme of my post. We can remove Catholics from the list, but when I referred to Catholics, my intention was only to include people practicing circumcision for faith or cultural reasons. | /r/MensRights | 14/03/17 11:41 AM |
| 1 | "My Body My Choice"Fair enough, this is such a minor talking point. I'll remember not to include Catholics in my post next time I'm discussing circumcision on the internet. | /r/MensRights | 14/03/17 11:35 AM |
| 1 | "My Body My Choice"You know that all I was saying was that some faiths practice circumcision because of their faith, and this does include some Catholics, you understood what I meant, why is this distinction even relevant? Not trying to fight with you but come on man. | /r/MensRights | 12/03/17 09:35 PM |
| 1 | "My Body My Choice"http://www.newadvent.org/cathen/03777a.htm Okay, but there are Christian and Catholic groups that do practice circumcision, so maybe you are just applying something across all Catholics that isn't necessarily true for all Catholics. Apparently the practice does exist in the Old Testament, I do not personally practice Catholicism, or really care, but to say my family "lied" to me, that's just absurd. | /r/MensRights | 12/03/17 09:14 PM |
| 1 | "My Body My Choice"They are, but I've been told by them that its a Catholic practice, so American Catholic, but okay if you want make the distinction I guess | /r/MensRights | 12/03/17 08:54 PM |
| 2 | "My Body My Choice"Fair enough, again, I'm not defending circumcision, I was circumcised and do not have these problems, I'm sorry that you do and I agree that there could be something wrong with cutting a perfectly healthy body part off, the reason it is commonly practiced in America, or was until recently, is because of the thought that it helps keep cleaning and maintenance and the prevention of infection easier. I'm not saying that I believe these things to be true, that's just the reasons people have used to … | /r/MensRights | 12/03/17 08:10 PM |
| 1 | "My Body My Choice"My family is Catholic and they practiced circumcision, maybe not all Christians do, but for many Catholics circumcision is a common practice. | /r/MensRights | 12/03/17 08:05 PM |
| 1 | "My Body My Choice"A valid point, and I agree that it should be his choice for sure, I won't be choosing for my son for that reason, but for what it's worth, don't feel bad man, there's nothing wrong with being cut, call it a scar if you want to but scars are a part of what makes us | /r/MensRights | 11/03/17 11:14 PM |
| 0 | "My Body My Choice"I guess, I was forcibly circumcised as an infant too though and I don't at all feel like it was a horrible disfiguring or desensitizing experience for me personally nor do I feel like saying it is or is not a difficult truth or comforting lie. As far as I'm concerned it could go either way, and this is incredibly subjective but every woman I've ever been with has said she preferred men who were circumcised, granted that's opinion based, it's just my experience. My main point was that the compari… | /r/MensRights | 11/03/17 09:12 PM |
| 17 | "My Body My Choice"The practice is encouraged for infants for a variety of reasons, some parents choose to have it done for their infant for the sake of religious tradition (i.e. the Jewish faith and maybe Muslim I'm not sure, have practiced circumcision for centuries, but not Catholics outside of the USA and not for religious purposes apparently), some choose to have it done because they believe that it is aesthetically preferred by most women whether this is myth or reality aside, and some have it done because i… | /r/MensRights | 11/03/17 07:11 PM |
| -3 | "My Body My Choice"Whether they needed it or not really isn't as important as the fact that they had it done. Not to defend infant circumcision at all, but the argument that Circumcision is some horrific practice that maims a persons physical sensitivity really just makes people who didn't have that choice feel bad, and people who did feel better about themselves not having it done, and its an extremely subjective and arbitrary thing. The only people who know of the real difference it makes are those who have the … | /r/MensRights | 11/03/17 06:52 PM |
