Maggie doesn't care much for men and even promotes violence

I hate Margret Wente so much

The reporter who wrote this lost me completely with her assessment of how the circumcised men she knows don't seem traumatized or that male circumcision isn't comparable to female circumcision.

STFU.

I had a nightmare the other night that I gave birth to a son and my boyfriend decided we needed to circumcise him. I had to secretly escape with my baby to protect him from his crazy father.

(We've discussed this IRL, my boyfriend's not circumcised and if we ever do have a son there's no way we'll do that to him.)

so... apparently, if you think that male newborns having an important piece of their genitalia cut off is unnecessary, barbaric, unethical, harmful and/or cruel, you are a nazi supporter. Nice...

I guess she has never heard of the jewish subsets which are against circumcisions, that the act of circumcision does not exclusively qualify Judaism as a religion or even that being anti-religion doesn't equate to being pro extremism/Nazism.

That is so ridiculous I wouldn't know where to begin

What happened to freedom of choice?

They also have a poll linked in the article if you want to voice your opinion on whether or not you would ever consider circumcising your potential offspring.

Honest question from a circumcised guy: Can someone tell me why this is a big deal? I'm not trying to say you guys haven't thought out your positions or anything, but I thought the article wasn't all that bad (although I know nothing about the author). Are there any benefits to being uncircumcised? I honestly have no idea, and I swear I'm not trying to troll here.
