    Uggh, I don’t know why I bother engaging these kind of arguments. Should know by now that it never pays off. But in order to be less miserable, I’m trying to train myself to see both sides of an issue.

    I don’t mind somebody disagreeing with me as long as they base their opinion on something logical. But there’s a woman on YouTube giving people a hard time about the difference between male and female circumcision. My stance is, if a man grows up and decides that he wants to do it, that’s fine. His call. However, that’s precisely what it should be – his call. His dick, his rules. It’s when you’re doing it to a helpless baby that it raises a few morals. A person should have some say in whether or not they want to be mutilated, that seems reasonable doesn’t it? Whether you’re a man or a woman, that rule should apply.

    I decided to point this out. And she said, “This concern really is the most dramatised subject I can think of. The difference is that there’s no point in female circumcision, ever. Whereas boys can have tight foreskins.”

    First of all, like she’d know. Second, there’s no point in male circumcision either – it’s proven to have no health benefits for either sex. Third, maybe some boys have tight foreskins, okay, but that doesn’t seem a common enough problem to warrant every single boy being cut at birth. The principle doesn’t change – I still maintain that the kid should at least be past infancy before anybody can can take a knife to his junk. He’ll get enough of that hassle from society emotionally, he doesn’t need it in the literal.

    I should be used to this kind of dismissiveness, but it eats away at me all the same. I surely can’t be on my own here. The worst part was that the video in question listed a whole lot of graphic stories about boys who had suffered severe repercussions – and in some cases died – from circumcision gone wrong. Wouldn’t that be enough to make up your mind?

    Why are you even bothering to “debate” the issue with her? Do you seriously think anything you say will make her change her opinion?

    She isn’t worth the time or effort. Walk away and stop p~~~ing away your time.

    Don’t give people like her free rent in your head.

    Do not date. Do not impregnate. Do not co-habitate. Above all, do not marry. Reclaim and never again surrender your personal sovereignty.

    You raise some very good points.

    My take on this, is that if it was a redundant attribute. We would not have it to begin with.

    We are removing what nature/God/evolution, whatever our beliefs may be, have put into place.

    And quite right, without the child’s consent.

    I do have a tight foreskin, and saw a urologist about it. He told me very clearly, that there is a high chance of permanent loss of sensitivity. Which cannot be undone.

    Nature put it place, for a reason. That is one way to make an argument for this point. It has developed or continued to come down the evolutionary pipeline for a reason.

    Tell the c~~~s who are arguing, how they would feel if their clits were removed? That may put it into perspective.

    Ahhhh 🙂 Thanks Bill I needed that. Feeling a bit better now.

    If you had the procedure done, or if you didn’t?

    My thoughts exactly. We don’t need our appendix, that’s a totally redundant organ. But after a baby is born, they don’t cut its stomach open and take out the appendix unless it’s infected. Maybe they’d be saving that kid some trouble in the long run, if they just removed it straightaway. But how do you think people would feel if that rule was implemented: from now on, doctors must perform an appendectomy at birth in order to prevent future trouble? And an appendix can only cause you trouble. A foreskin doesn’t necessarily.

    So she’s womansplaining. Pretending to know more about a body part she does not have and then explaining that to someone who actually has that body part. Womansplaining.

    No way bro. When he mentioned having to sign a waiver, and that there may be irreversible damage. I was like, “buddy…why don’t you go ahead and circumcise yourself!” I’ll keep my johnson, just the way it is.

    Did not follow through. It is not that tight that it impedes in a severe way. Just have to take certain steps in keeping it stretched and flexible. Which over time, it got better. But is not all the way gone.

    Again, good points.

    There are definite dangers, when man decides to f~~~ with nature. This has been witnessed over and over, across the world, on multiple levels. Nature usually, knows best.

    I agree, that if there was an infection, or in a more severe case of having a very tight foreskin, then an incision, to open it up, would be the milder approach, over circumcising a full grown man.

    If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it. Seems to be a very applicable understanding.

    So much of what is wrong with the world, is when man kind went and f~~~ed with nature. That has rarely worked in our favor.

    Circumcision may seem like a trivial subject. But it can do a lot of harm. Must weigh the options carefully.

    Womansplaining.

    That is the never ending entitlement of women. And it runs rampant.

    There is no magic in MGTOW, just recognition of the truth and logical decision how to avoid dangers. The red pill is but the truth, it is no magical potion. Do not think in this modern world men have no longer have natural enemies, men are prey to women and government.

    Why is the skin on your penis an issue? Why do some men regret it so much?

    Brother, we need to stick together.

    Because it’s unquestioned systematic mutilation of our gender while female circumcision is illegal. More evidence that males are 2nd class.

    Why are you getting depressed over what a random chick in the internet says? Does every feminist blog depress you? If not, then that video shouldn’t either. You are better than this.

    I have discovered a truly remarkable list of reasons why women are not necessary for a happy life, but alas this margin is too small to contain it.

    I see someone’s trying to fund a documentary on the issue of male genital mutilation. Something else for the feminists to protest over and try not to get seen.

    We have become a society where exceptions drive the rule. Take a look at abortion. When one questions abortion, the first defense is “Well what about victims or rape or where the mothers life is in danger”

    Note that both those instances are exceptions. Is every woman who ever got pregnant a victim or rape? No. Is every woman who is pregnant in danger of losing her life? No. And yet exceptions are used to create whole sale rules.

    Same thing here, some boys have tight foreskins, so let’s make a rule to circumcise every boy.

    Not only did you beat me to it, I don’t have to be the pedant this time around! That’s good news for a recovering pedant like me. 😉

    Thanks, brother.

    “But in order to be less miserable, I’m trying to train myself to see both sides of an issue.” I have to admit, I stopped reading when I read that sentence. This would be a very noble discipline to which one might generally aspire, but bear in mind we are talking about a woman telling a man about the benefits of taking a knife to his dick.

    Yes, I think objectivity is a good thing. But I also think it’s up to the disciplined mind to decide when to be objective, and went to simply drop the rope in a tug-of-war and walk away. This is one of those drop-rope moments.

    Perhaps a better skill to develop might be to discern when a woman is pushing your buttons. As Keymaster so eloquently and so often says, flip the script. Factually, she probably couldn’t give less of a damn about the issue, and is mostly interested in getting attention.

    Their are real medical indications for both male circumcision and Labiaplasty. Personally that is the way I view it but really context is king.

    I’M NOT ANYWHERE CLOSE TO BEING A MEDICAL EXPERT BUT SINCE I AM A TYPE 1 DIABETIC AND HAVE TO KEEP CLOSE EYE OUT ON INFECTIONS. CONSTANTINE LET ME FILL YOU IN ON THE BENEFITS OF MALE CIRCUMCISION.

    Easier hygiene. Circumcision makes it simpler to wash the penis. …
    Decreased risk of urinary tract infections. …
    Decreased risk of sexually transmitted infections. …
    Prevention of penile problems. …
    Decreased risk of penile cancer.

    THAT IS BUT A FEW . I GOT MINE 8 DAYS OUT OF MY MOMS BELLY. THERE WAS A REASON FOR THAT TO , BUT REMEMBER TO GET YOUR FACTS STREIGHT AND FROM REPUTABLE WEBSITES.

    JUST DOING SOME SIMPLE GATHERING OF WEB INFO ON THE SUBJECT AND I FIND RIGHT AT THE TOP SOME “INTACT AMERICANA ” SPOUTING OFF SOME STRANGE CLAIMS. AND WHERE THEY COME FROM “Intact America, founded in 2008 thanks to funding from a private donor”
    I CALL SHINNANNIGANS ON THEM AND THERE FACTS.

    Women don’t debate… women say their opinion and you can agree or agree as far as they are concerned. They stop listening unless they hear something that allows them to repeat their opinion in which case you can agree or agree all over again.

    I am uncircumcised, disease free and have no issues washing my dick.

    Second, there’s no point in male circumcision either – it’s proven to have no health benefits for either sex

    Bzzzzzt. I’m sorry, but the correct answer is that it DOES in fact have health benefits, potentially life saving ones. Thank you for playing, we have some lovely parting gifts for you backstage.

    [Note: I chose the wikipedia entry as it’s fairly neutral and well written. Plenty of other sources exist though, just google “circumcision and HIV”]

    This argument with a woman is the equivalent of stabing yourself in the eyeball with a number two pencil.

    My diagnosis is that you are now depressed.

    In the future I suggest less stabbing.
