Woman is convicted of having someone else's baby boy circumcised without the parents' consent. Unbelievably escapes jail since penalties as per FGM don't apply.

OrionTheWolf · 2019-11-15T18:37:36+00:00

So glad that you can circumcise someone else’s son without anyone’s consent and you won’t get punished, such privilege in male bodily autonomy

QuintenBoosje · 2019-11-15T19:26:17+00:00

X-posting this to r/feminism, hehe

"But Obi-Uzom will not go to jail. She was given a suspended sentence of 14 months. She was also ordered to pay costs of £1,500 and a £140 victim surcharge, which seems paltry compensation for amputating part of a person's genitals without consent or medical need. "

Fucking insane.

DerangedGinger · 2019-11-15T19:03:17+00:00

How does amputating part of person's body and making false claims in order to accomplish it NOT come with jail time? That's a disgusting violation of another person's bodily autonomy no matter what part of their body was removed.

Blarty97 · 2019-11-15T18:54:24+00:00

There were three people involved who conspired to do this. That is shocking.

McFeely_Smackup · 2019-11-16T00:53:14+00:00

Judge Freya Newbery said although the offence merited a prison sentence, "circumstances" meant she decided to suspend the sentence. The judge said she accepted that Obi-Uzom's intention "wasn't to harm the boy" and that she was of "impeccable character".

she's of impeccable character...except for the conspiracy to comit a sexual mutilation of a child. But that doesn't count, I guess.

Female judge...just saying.

excess_inquisitivity · 2019-11-15T20:39:45+00:00

Wait two years, declare the child a girl and reapply for outrage.

Sininenn · 2019-11-15T19:10:23+00:00

Patriarchy in action I see, opressing those women and privileging that white male.

EvilLothar · 2019-11-15T21:16:16+00:00

If this woman doesn't disappear back to whatever shit hole country she came from, I would be very surprised if she doesn't end up murdered. what parent would let someone who mutilated their baby continue to live?

A_one_legged_man · 2019-11-15T20:23:20+00:00

This is shocking, but the article is wrong to imply circumcision is a Christian belief. This is not true.

gnarlin · 2019-11-16T00:22:30+00:00

So, if woman can do it, what the fuck do you think would happen if a man would do the very same thing? How many consecutive death sentences would he get?

Nerfixion · 2019-11-15T21:21:58+00:00

What a fucking horror story. I feel like lying on a consent form is enough of a crime with out the added gential mutilation.

Seriously Id want to be able to sue of the lost sensitivity if it happened to me.

2019-11-15T23:56:56+00:00

The problem is the belief that children can be forced into religious membership. It doesn’t matter what religion, circumcision of infants or children for the purpose of the religious beliefs of others is forced religious membership.

mooncow-pie · 2019-11-15T21:49:52+00:00

yo what the FUCK.

CALAMITYFOX · 2019-11-16T06:27:40+00:00

Nigerian Christian? It is a Jewish custom. The Christian New Testament does not hold us to Jewish laws like those.

It's either Nigerian custom or Jewish , not Christian

You want a race war because that's how you start a race war

rabel111 · 2019-11-16T08:24:28+00:00

Why was the mutilation of this child trivialised.

Why was the mutilation of a infant penis not prosecuted as a sexual assault.

Why was this professional treated so lightly, when in any other circumstance a professional would be treated more severely than a lay person, having a position of privilege demanding a higher level of accountability.

BECAUSE THE VICTIM WAS MALE.

blazexddd · 2019-11-16T09:16:49+00:00

Fuck the UK. Every single part of it that is like this.

robcars · 2019-11-16T00:59:20+00:00

Troy and Society men are just disposable things. They're just cannon fodder. Christina is only useful to start a war and useful for a paycheck. Unfortunately it seems as though men have no value in current Society.

2paxSugar · 2019-11-16T06:09:53+00:00

It has to be a battery at the very least?

2019-11-16T09:04:51+00:00

this is so fucking sad, but 'Oh nO thE Air ConDitiOnInG iS sExIsT'

functionalsociopathy · 2019-11-16T02:19:07+00:00

This is buried in a shallow grave territory. If the courts keep refusing to hold women like this responsible they're probably going to end up doing it to a family that really doesn't appreciate it.

MysteryGentleman · 2019-11-16T02:28:44+00:00

Very few things would drive me to commit murder.

username001776 · 2019-11-16T04:55:57+00:00

Uncool...

Bannyflaster · 2019-11-16T11:31:43+00:00

He will live his life with a de-sensitized penis. Why is she getting away with that

Stephancevallos905 · 2019-11-16T00:47:30+00:00

FGM?

HotDrunkMoms · 2019-11-16T05:23:59+00:00

FGM? Field Goals Made?

NotGabeNAMA · 2019-11-16T08:32:21+00:00

Wow this is pissing me off.

robcars · 2019-11-16T18:32:02+00:00

Yes, very true

2019-11-17T17:33:26+00:00

Holy shit WHAT IS SOCIETY DOING?!

ODSTRomeo419 · 2019-11-16T01:41:31+00:00

I commented something else in here to explain why we shouldn't convict people in our minds before we find all the facts, and got dowvoted a bunch so if anyone else is alive in here and sees this, lemme explain my comment in a much simpler way. Radical Feminists: something happened to a woman, throw facts and data in the case out the door immediately, the man did something wrong! Burn him! Burn everyone involved and the others allegedly involved! Men who responded to my comment negatively: something happened to this boy, throw facts and data in this case out the door immediately, the woman did something wrong! Burn her! Burn everyone involved and the others allegedly involved! Can someone tell me why I got downvoted? Or at least support this defense of waiting for due process because holy fucking donkey dick, I feel like I got targeted by some people who fail to use their brain.

laithgh37 · 2019-11-15T22:01:03+00:00

I’m a guy but I don’t understand why are other men so opposed to circumcision, can someone explain this to me? I tried googling it but couldn’t get a clear answer and it would be great to know about this topic as well because it concerns me.

Edit: no idea why I’m downvoted, I’m out of the loop and want to know more about the topic.

backyardmoonshine · 2019-11-16T16:36:02+00:00

FGM is different as it causes a lot more trauma to the body. The male equivalent would be cutting the head off the penis. While circumcision is wrong it (in general) causes minimal long lasting harm and has a very low mortality rate.

Hiddiepiddie · 2019-11-16T11:46:53+00:00

This is so unbelievably sickening. However, since my parents are doctors and I know this stuff a bit, FGM is really dangerous to a females health and male circumcision is actually more hygienic. Doesn't take away the fact that this bitch posed as a different person and caused lifetime harm to a baby boy, only to get sentenced around 600 pounds.

As infuriating as it was what the woman done, comparing circumcision to FGM is ridiculous. Circumcision have only cosmetic effects and there even may be health benefits and better sexual performance. FGM prevents women to have clitorial orgasm and come with a dozen health risks with no benefits what so ever.
