I wonder why these babies are screaming their lungs out, maybe they're enjoying themselves? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5oCFrw5N-44 I'm sorry to reiterate this but ALL forms of genital cutting on female minors are banned, even nicking the clitoris without removing any living tissue. It has no long term consequences, but it's still a human rights violation regardless of any argument one may want to put forward to defend it.

3	Shaming MRA's For Disagreeing Is Not Okay, and the Issue of Male Circumcision AS someone who was mutilated by a mohel for religious beliefs that I do not share at all, coercive circumcision of children goes against freedom of religion, which is an individual right, not a free pass to harm or brand others with your ideas, even if they are your kids. It's child abuse, and that's the way it's viewed for female circumcision. Same standards should apply once again, just because a religion is held in higher regards in the West, doesn't mean its followers should get a free pass …	/r/MensRights	07/01/15 06:29 AM
1	Shaming MRA's For Disagreeing Is Not Okay, and the Issue of Male Circumcision That's not what I'm saying, women can get labiaplasties, clitoral reduction, clitoroplexy, vaginoplasty, etc...when they are 18 and over and I have no problem with that whatsoever. these things would be called FGM if they were done in other contexts. The same standards should apply for male circumcision/MGM, adults can do it if that's their wish, but don't do it to children just because you're in a position to overpower them. The practice would die out very quickly if coercion was not involved.	/r/MensRights	07/01/15 06:14 AM
2	Shaming MRA's For Disagreeing Is Not Okay, and the Issue of Male Circumcision The only reason circumcision (full excision of the foreskin) is even a thing is because it's mentioned in the Bible. It's an extremely invasive treatment for what rare problems people say it cures (himosis mostly, but there's a huge cultural component involved, in Denmark only 1 in 16 000 men get surgery on their foreskin for "medical reasons"), and most people who get it done were perfectly fine before so it has no justification in this regard anyway.

I assume you take offense at the idea of a ban based on "religious freedom", except that religious freedom is taken away from the child who undergoes genital mutilation for religious reasons which have no meaning for him at this point.

Patriarchy was not invented by feminists, the term has been used for a very long time in history and anthropology to describe societies where men have most of the power and set standards accordingly.

1	Male Circumcision IS comparable and equitable to female circumcision. What do you mean by "trying to legalize"? I don't think they have tried anything legally (going to court) They'd only have grounds to do it because MGM is legal in the West, completely overlooking child abuse laws, medical standards ( most circumcisers practice surgery illegally in Europe) and medical ethics too.

1	Male Circumcision IS comparable and equitable to female circumcision.

So that "medical purpose" is very much a matter of culture, namely the fact that this body part is considered optional/pathological in places where most people don't have it.

I think some interesting and valid issues are defended in this subreddit (genital mutilation, child custody,..), but I see many people are "butthurt" over the littlest bullshit (like facebook memes or really random empty conversations), and seem to try to make a fuss about nothing. I think that discredits what you guys are supposedly standing for. So I would say yes, a lot of people here seem to be fanatics. They may have had good intentions when it started, but went completely overboard and bec…	/r/MensRights	12/06/13 02:42 PM
-7	Even in 2013 I guess men are obligated to put themselves in danger to protect women. Tell me...what are women obligated to do for men in this modern age? Jeez I was really hoping this story would not end up in this subreddit... Nobody is "obligated" to do anything, you can just keep on being a coward like most people in this subway station. Happy?	/r/MensRights	12/06/13 02:27 PM
8	How do you guys feel about circumcision? What infections are we talking about? A lot of infections on intact men are caused by people not knowing how to handle it and being too invasive: trying to forcibly retract the foreskin before puberty causes infections that wouldn't have been there otherwise. This is the reason btw, for american doctors' claims that intact men have higher UTIs. They get UTIs because they are badly handled by the parents/doctors due to complete absence of information on how to talke care of an intact child (leave…	/r/MensRights	11/06/13 07:52 PM

Nah, not rape. Next time: close the door, don't handcuff yourself and don't bust your nut!!	/r/MensRights	10/06/13 11:14 PM

1	LiveLeak.com - New York City Mayoral Candidate Criticised for wanting to end Jewish ritual of "oral-genital suction" on babies The genital integrity debate is complicated because people have terrible double standards about it and have swallowed the propaganda that it's healthy, for the greater good, that the baby will look like his dad, that it will protect him from HIV ( he will get it real soon if he believes that btw!) when the first intent, since immemorial times, is to punish/reduce sexual enjoyment. But this is direct sexual contact, there are no tools involved, it is a B L O W J O B. I saw a report that some babi…	/r/MensRights	08/06/13 04:13 PM

1	Circumcision: "Sometimes it seems like every boy is born with a coupon for $300 on the end of his penis..." Define "cultural" VS " religious"..? Especially in ethnic groups that function via oral tradition ( that can go back to hundreds of years) It's the same thing, really.	/r/MensRights	08/06/13 11:43 AM
-2	The "men can stop rape" poster is submitted to r/WTF: the comments section is full of posts defending the generalization of men as rapists Explain how you can be "forced to penetrate someone" if you don't want to do it, you don't have an erection. Unless you've injected caverject or something like this (even viagra requires arousal). Speaking strictly about adults here. (PS: Don't go ballistic on me, I'm new to this subreddit ) PPS: This infographic is a response to the instructions women get in order to not be raped (like dressing conservatively, don't go out at night alone, and stuff like this) - so you should take it with a grai…	/r/MensRights	08/06/13 11:14 AM
1	Social experiment: 3 actors try to steal a bike in a park (a white man, a black man, and a pretty girl.) Watch how onlookers react. It's amazing that they help the girl even when she admits she's stealing it. I guess these people are really desperate!	/r/MensRights	08/06/13 09:48 AM
0	Feminist group wants obscure rapper thrown out of Australia over his lyrics. Guess Facebook isn't enough, they need the Department of Immigration as well! Free debate and direct calls to violence against a specific group are different things. You know those rappers (and their fans) aren't so subtle and tend to act upon what they say, makes them feel like a "big man". I agree, revoke his visa.	/r/MensRights	08/06/13 08:08 AM
1	Mother eventually informs herself about circumcision, decides not to cut her next baby boy (after having it done to the previous ones ) and makes awesome video on the topic. THIS type of testimony can really help bringing the issue mainstream. Actually you can start to have an idea of what it would feel like to have your glans covered(making the remaining nerves more sensitive, and decallousing the skin) by applying the methods used for "foreskin restoration" ( T-tape, etc...). You will never be able to regrow the thousands never endings you lost but this is a step. I did this, and in 2 weeks I started to experience new sensations, and getting an erection actually gave me a spontaneous smile, because it FELT good for the first time in…	/r/MensRights	07/06/13 11:02 PM
1	Circumcision: "Sometimes it seems like every boy is born with a coupon for $300 on the end of his penis..." IT's worth way more than $300, it's sold once for the operation($300-$800), a second time to the labs that buy it ($534 as of today apparently), and a thrid time to the woman that buys anti-wrinkle face cream made of harvested body parts.	/r/MensRights	07/06/13 05:30 PM

THIS type of testimony can really help bringing the issue mainstream. Sorry I'm new here :) I understand you are putting yourself in the average (or dumber than average) man's shoes when you state this but these sentiments are so wrong, they made me fuse hehe. But what you are saying must be a big part of the problem. How do you communicate on this issue without having this "you're attacking my manhood" reaction (I think the parallel with FGM really works in that respect but then again some people are gonna scream "how dare you compare the two!?"etc..), and avoidi…	/r/MensRights	07/06/13 02:40 PM
5	Mother eventually informs herself about circumcision, decides not to cut her next baby boy (after having it done to the previous ones ) and makes awesome video on the topic. THIS type of testimony can really help bringing the issue mainstream. I don't understand your reasoning...? She said things in a very respectful way, I would assume that chopping off 30-50% of your penis surface against your will, removing your most sensitive body part in the process, is a greater attack on one's "manhood". And there is no attack involved, the issue is about helpless children who get their body parts chopped off due to misinformation( It's not even really treated as a surgical procedure, meaning I really doubt the doctors warn mothers of the conse…	/r/MensRights	07/06/13 01:10 PM
1	Woman eventually researches circumcision after cutting 4 of her boys, decides against it for the 5th one and makes an awesome video on the topic. CONTEXT : She didn't question it for her first children as her husband said "I'm cut, my sons will get cut too" , felt awkward about it but still had the procedure done. When she eventually got the proper information, she decided to let the 5th child intact and this happened. Please be respectful in your comments, I know it's terrible that her previous children were cut but I think that this is really the type of person that could help further the children's/men's rights cause. She is realatable…	/r/MensRights	07/06/13 10:25 AM
