The irony of those who have had their sons circumcised to come out with "their savages doing that to their daughters."The only reason I'm not cut, is because my grandma's family aint all from round hur, lol. War baby of a war bride.
All of my relations on my grandfathers side, down to my generation and up to him, all cut. Now they (my grandparents) didn't end up having any sons, but my grandmother managed to impose her family's narrative and traditions upon their daughters, who in turn kindly declined the knife when offered. Even my half brothers are uncut despite their father being cut. Imagine the conversations you have, with your grandmother, to figure this sort of shit out, lol.
"Granny, why is my pecker different than Poppy's, and daddy's?"
-"Because your grandfathers family are base savages, boy."
So I just grew up without the casual and uninformed acceptance that many americans have for the practice. I didn't even know that fgm was a thing until, like, a few years ago....and immediately it jumped out at me as heinous shit. The first thing that comes to mind, for me, is "What if someone cut part of my dick off, this is horrid, it needs to be stopped!".
So, maybe there's a "pro" to leaving it un-snipped, ladies. We'll be able, as men, to immediately identify, with no hypocrisy or irony....just why you should be allowed to keep your clits? Here's to hoping for a better tomorrow, full of un-mutilated dong and vag, and the communal understanding which they grant us. A world in which neither sex looks at the other sex's sexy bits and thinks to themselves.... "that, is filthy".
Bolded part is mine.
That is from a strictly Christian, or indeed Catholic point of view. I mean, give me a nice woman anytime who is actually clean and uncut, rather than a woman who maybe cut and unclean. As for hygiene, cut or uncut, there is absolutely no difference except that as "uncut", men, we take pride in (I do anyway) our bits and make sure they are as clean as a car in a showroom, sparkly clean. Whereas a cut peen, well, I am sure there are men who take a more relaxed approach and thus get into a false sense of security thinking they are clean when in reality.......
