Good. It's about fucking time people took the fact that we literally cut off parts of infant penis seriously and stopped using it as a punchline in jokes.

Most mammals have one and there is a reason to have it.

LMAO, it does prevent cancer though, the same way removing one of your kidneys makes you 100% less likely yo get cancer in that kidney, because it's no longer there.

The comments on the article are definitely encouraging

And of course The Independent can't even be bothered to treat these same things the same in their own headline... "circumcision" vs "genital mutilation"

I am an MRA and an anti-feminist, but the only thing i don't agree with is this. Obviously both male and female genital mutilation hurt, but isn't male genital mutilation practiced because of the christian practice? I want to change my mind but i can't unless i have a valid fact behind it.

The female equivilent to male circumcision is labiaplasty, something women do all the time.

"female circumcision" = cutting off clitoris
