I am against any kind of genital mutilation of children. What you do as a consenting adult is none of my business.

However, when I saw this. I could not really get myself to care. When most people are bigots who do not offer the same kind of empathy and consideration to boys.

It is one thing bigots forget, if you dehumanize someone, stop on their rights, treat them as animals, you can hardly expect them to care when someone else stomps on your rights. It is one of the reasons why only honest movement for equal rights for everyone can have any hope of long term success.

Mistreating someone, and expecting them to care about your rights is bound to fail.
