Quote:If you don't already know, the term "junk" in American English means the male genitals.

Really? Who'd have thunk.


In Melbourne (mercifully 500 miles away) sex is referred to as 'a naughty'.

Really not sure which term is more anal retentive.

I have lived in Victoria since 1996 and a lot of that time in Melbourne. However I have never heard of sex being referred to as 'a naughty'.

Only in Adelaide it would seem.

Germany being anti-semitic once more i see.











That was a joke

I'm sure that this decision will be overturned soon enough. No one can deprive people of their cultural rights.

The courts ruled that circumcision amounted to unneeded bodily mutilation, calling it "assault".
Reading through the thread, it seems that the reason for the ruling was that cultural rights < Bodily rights.
Being able to choose for yourself what you do with your wangalang is quite the choice. One doesn't simply grow back foreskin.

Bodily Rights totally trump "Cultural Rights."

As is female "circumcision" seems like equality is happening here. This type of "culture" is nothing but ingrained tradition based on superstition as far as I can understand it

Hmmph. Assault, made by a doctor? That's new, and given the fact that circumcision was practiced by our immigrants(and the Jews) who stayed in Germany for decades. But I don't really expect you people to understand what circumcision means to us. Of course, it's their country. Their courts may say anything they want to. Will that stop us from circumcising our children?
No. Each year, our immigrants take a plane back to Turkey for vacation. They can just get them circumcised there. Which again proves how useless the court ruling is. It will be overturned soon enough.

I doubt it will be overturned. In this day and age people tend to understand that a baby is a person with rights of their own. Fuck if their parents want to fiddle about with their genitals and/or remove body parts against their will. That's just tough.
