Circumcision linked to ACEs and violent households, says new study

Who would have thought that early childhood trauma could lead to violent behavior as adults? /S

Kind of funny, I took the ACE test the other day and had a 4. Never even thought about circumcision being part of it. Also, the ACE test is rather gynocentric in nature as one of them is about seeing the father abusing the mother either physically or verbally, but not the mother abusing the father.

Circumcision leads to over 100 deaths in US among newborns on a yearly rate and thousands of other boys suffering significant penile injuries to warrant another surgery or correction. One may argue that it still makes less than 1% of all circumcised boys, but it shows just how much they care about newborn boys because if they cared at all they'd opine that one case is one case too many.

It is almost routinely done even today and its main function is of religious nature with the primary purpose to both mark the individuals as part of specific religious group or sect and to reduce sexual enjoyment and masturbation altogether. The second part is confirmed for all the patients who undergo this procedure later in life, mainly due to medical conditions that warrant it, but some also due to religious convictions. It's also been common knowledge up until second part of 20th century in America, yet the narrative changed with the new age and now they claim it's due to supposed hygiene or even reduction of sexual diseases, even though those were studies paid with the sole purpose of "proving" such claims.

I don't even need to mention just how much more dangerous it is for boys in Africa who undergo this kind of genital mutilation, how many of them end up killed - estimates regularly estimate that at least 10,000 boys will die in Africa each year due to this terrible practice, with millions of others being severely affected due to subsequent infections or imprecise or corrosive equipment being used.

Supporting this medically unnecessary practice (routine mutilation) of newborns makes you either a religious fanatic, a man-hating feminist, or an outright sadist, especially when you condone it or even foster it in developed countries such as US.

If you try and bring up male genital mutilation anywhere, someone always brings up some bullshit statistic or claim they are circumcised and it doesn't affect them. It's so insane how normalized it is. In fucking infants. What the fuck

We ended FGM decades ago with far less evidence. This is by far the most backwards, cruel, fucked up and infuriating act of sexual violence standardized in the modern United States.

Ace is gynocentric

Wow, big surprise.

Cut my dick, and expect me to act the fuck out.

Check out this question from the ACE Test (Keep in mind it's only 10 questions and there are no questions specifically about 'Fathers' only parent or mother.

Before your 18th birthday, was your mother or stepmother:

often or very often pushed, grabbed, slapped, or had something thrown at her?

or

sometimes, often, or very often kicked, bitten, hit with a fist, or hit with something hard?

or

ever repeatedly hit over at least a few minutes or threatened with a gun or knife?

hmmm...no. Bad science. They surveyed 33% more circumcised than intact. 375 to 125. The study doesn't mean anything because the results are in quite a large margin of error. It is about the same if you read the study and look at the questions asked. A parent could not care what he has down there and still use substances or neglect him.

It's all bullshit. I'm circumcised and I've never hurt ~~anybody~~ ~~many~~ more than a few people...

rationalguyforsure · 2023-01-26T17:42:18+00:00

Fake news.

TempleOfDooom · 2023-01-26T05:33:48+00:00

This is a pretty poorly done study. Surveying 500 people and then attributing the very small differences in results to something like circumcision is pretty flawed research.

I’m glad I was circumcised because it’s part of Torah a sign of covenant with God
