Found this while randomly browsing imgur. Considering the practice of male circumcision, looks like someone was unintentionally ironic here.

Or intentional comedy as Cordelia is supposed to be fairly ignorant.

Not sure if it's unintentional. It's a bit strange to go from "sacrificing virgins" to " sacricing body parts", esp. since women don't sacrifice body parts in the west, even in fiction.

Knowing the source (Whedonites, not just Cordi), that is probably not unintentionally ironic.

Everything in the Whedonverse is meant to offend someone. Or kill off a main character. /shrug

HA! Love the irony!

Ancient Mayan's had a bloodletting ritual.

"Bloodletting was performed by piercing a soft body part, generally the tongue or penis, and scattering the blood or collecting it on paper, which was subsequently burned.[1] The act of burning the sacrificed blood symbolized the transferral of the offering to the gods via its transformation into the rising smoke."

This was posted on 2X. Someone pointed out circumcision which sparked a tantrum from SRS. Good times.

The 'view comments on reddit' link was not working on imgur so I thought that the initial submission may have been removed, seems that it is still there on /r/TwoXChromosomes

EDIT: didn't realize /r/2xc was ever a thing. Paid the price for laziness.

Some African tribes circumcise young men as a passage through adulthood and a sign that indicates they are man now. Fucking A people are the scariest animal out there. Movie theaters scare me, to many humans in one area

Season 3 of angel, not sure which episode. Brilliant show.

Christ more of the same "Women are actively victimized by evil men" bullshit. Is the sexism there not so obvious?

Instead of blaming say religion, which happens to be male dominated for various purposes, they always have to complain how men institute everything so that its against women.

Men don't count as human is what you are missing.

You could also consider the practice of crusades, or jihad in the form of holy war.

I'm actually not sure if the irony was unintentional... especially if this is a random find.

Waaay ahead of the curve on this one. I saw the self same post on 2XChromosomes a couple days ago, and replied with this, and a shit-storm of epic proportions ensued. SRS got involved too.

If anything good came of this, at least I was able to RES-tag a whole slew of crazies so I can ignore them more easily in the future.
