Another Circumcision thread

[The Grand Nudger]

Do you honestly believe your foreskin is as important as your hands?

I don;t believe that cutting off any one part of me is more or less abusive than cutting off any other.  Someone cuts off my hand, I'll beat them to death with the other one. If they bite off a portion of my ear...I'll gnaw at their face.... If they cut off my foreskin......well, turnabout is fair play....but I'll get a little more meat in my hands.

And, again, you don't have to stretch yourself that far to find the benefits... decreased risk of UTIs, STDs, and penile cancer, as well as (obviously) zero risk of phimosis. I admitted that the benefits probably do not warrant the surgery, but stop pretending they don't exist.

You should take a look at the meta-analysis of those claimed benefits.  You'll find that they disappear like mist when you account for what demographics the uncut and those with stds overlap into.  Some demographics are more likely to be uncut than others, and those demographics are also more likely to have an std.  It's not their dick...cut or uncut, giving them syphilis.  Pro tip...regardless of whether or not you have foreskin, don't dip your wick into a dirty pool. If you -do- dip your wick into a dirty pool...don't imagine that your lack of foreskin is going to save you, even by a percentage.

There you go, losing me again talking about how much we're "traumatizing" babies with this operation. I asked you this before: where's the psychological damage I suffered on that terrible day?

Again I will only ask you whether or not remembering something makes it better or worse...and whether or not ..you think..people disassociate or forget when they are subject to trauma.  We don;t remember much of anything from our childhood, in truth, but that doesn;t change the nature of what has been or might have been done to us.

Go find a video, watch it be done, imagine that it doesn;t hurt, that the child is not in absolute terror...and when they shut up, and play dead, imagine that they aren;t..at that moment, trying as best they can to block it out and forget...oh, and ofc.....watch it and be indifferent. Good luck, you were that little kid, once upon a time. If you're having trouble empathizing, try saying "this was me, this was me, this was me" in your head while you watch. Might bring it home.
