LOL genital mutilation!

I protested at the AAP convention down in New Orleans a few months ago. You would not believe some of the callous things that doctors both male and female said to us.

Makes me sad to think that the obstetrician who cut me may have relished in it, though the result would be the same regardless.

Hard not to cry when I read this.

The facebook screenshot is gross. This:

Child pornography is illegal; harming a child, especially sexually harming a child, is also illegal. But fetishists have found a legal-loophole in viewing sexually-explicit material of babies being caused extreme pain; it’s called circum-fetish and it is legal. Sources of circum-fetish material include circumcision-humor web sites, circum-erotic stories, and medically-produced circumcision videos . Considering that doctors are the source of the video material, it is concerning when we read that many doctors use no pain medication at all in this procedure [4], that some doctors and many medical researchers promoting circumcisions belong to circum-fetish groups, and that medical professionals in the U.S. are making comments like: "If you get a chance to see a circumcision, it's cool to watch.”, and “Circs are at any time always so exciting.”

Is beyond fucked up.

I think by those of you not in the medical community this definitely needs some context. I should preface by noting that I am both anti-circumcision and uncircumcised myself. Now that all being said, medical professionals have a very dark sense of humor, and in all seriousness it's what gets you through the day. We joke about death, sex, life, bodily fluids, surgical procedures...if we do it there's a joke about it. As a medical professional what I see here is exactly that, it's not intended to be malicious.

I don't understand - what medical reason is there to circumcise an infant? And if it isn't medically necessary, why the hell would a doctor do it?

Jesus... I still feel sick to my stomach after watching that video. I bet people's opinions would change dramatically if we started forcing parents to sit through the circumcision. Make 'em look into their baby's eyes while they force them to go through this torture. Then we'll see what they have to say about it afterward.

The U.S. leads the industrialized world in ... grown men who think they need to protect themselves from the authorities. Is it possible there may be a link here?

So, as a circumcised man, I'll never know what it's like to be truly uncut. Could someone explain to me why I don't need to protect myself from the authorities? I don't believe the people in power in this country are all bad, but I do believe there are too many that are. I've also been subject to some of the abuses this subreddit frequently talks about, much of which would not have occurred if we had better authorities...
