Okay, we're about to get real personal real quick.

I am circumcised... And I hate it. I find it really irritating that I was circumcised and that this issue amongst Americans is so brushed under the rug. It really irritates me that the ignorant masses will claim there is no loss of sensitivity, or it's more hygienic, or it'll prevent HIV. Bull shit, all of it.

There is a provable loss of sensitivity, and I have a lovely anecdote to share about it. Before I went full on MGTOW I did have myself a few girlfriends and we did have sex. Sex had been hyped up to be this amazing thing that is paramount to everything. Each time I've had sex I've barely felt a thing. Both protected and unprotected (stupid).

I suspect many who say sex feels amazeballz aren't circumcised, but that's just a theory of mine. Hell, even masturbation for me can be almost sensationless. So when people argue that there's no loss of feeling I really just want to cut that persons arm off and say "They're really not missing anything."

Next, the more hygienic bullshit. Some argue that if you're circumcised that your dick will be a lot cleaner. Which is true, BUT we miss one massive insult it plays to men in general with that argument. By arguing that it's more hygienic you're essentially saying that if you don't lop off a chunk of the mans dick he'll never wash it. Oh yes, the man will NEVER wash that vitally important sex organ. Give me a fucking break.

For the HIV one, there is no real hard evidence to prove that's true. Just a shit load of junk science.

Really, that's what's fueling this whole thing, at least in the US. Constant junk science saying that MGM isn't bad, and FGM is sooooooooooo much worse. No. I dispute that to my dying breath. MGM, and FGM are both equally morally and ethically reprehensible. If you circumcise without life saving health reasons, then I'm sorry, but I cannot break bread with you.

"I circumcised my son and it was my decision to make. I am not religious at all - I did it because it has been scientifically proven to reduce his risk of AIDS and other STDs later in life." -In the comments

Well maybe you should teach him to avoid random sexual encounters instead? What the fuck kind of messed up logic is that? "My child could get an STD in the future, better chop off part of his dick."

I'm wondering whether this would also apply to piercings.

child's right to physical integrity

Does that mean the right to not be circumcised or the right to be? Because I'm glad I was (I find uncircumcised penis to be extremely gross while circumcised are just kind of gross (I'm straight))
