I’m sorry it’s legally allowed to mutilate baby’s sex organs. It’s honestly fucking disgusting, and tragic that you are one of the many victims.
In a couple decades circumcision will likely be looked back on as one of the many barbaric practices that was common in the past.

In the US? The same country that just overturned Roe v Wade? Yeah, somehow I have my doubts they will rid themselves of the archaic genital mutilation. I would like to believe people in 2024 are also smart enough not to crop a dog’a ears or dock its tail or hell, breed the abominations like pugs and french bulldogs. But that is not the world we live in. The world we do live in is filled to the brim with idiots.

I realize that having it done as a newborn I’ll never really know, but mutilated? As an adult iv seen and played with those flesh danglers. Listen we are all humans and beautiful, but fucking hell I’m happy with mine. They are like one of those weird deep sea critters you see on nat geo or sciencememes.
True, if I ever have a baby I’ll make the argument to the mom we SHOULD give the kid the choice… but I know that as a poor adult I would never do it now. But am happy it’s been done.
I hate to sound like a “Liberal” talking about Palestine, but this may be a somewhat nuanced situation.

an infant’s* sex organs

You literally can’t, because you’ll be dead by then.

My mother scandalized the Navy nurses by refusing to allow me out of her sight for any reason including a circumcision. She said there was no need,.as she loved every part.if me, and wasn’t going to be staying in the hospital one second longer than necessary. The doctor had to shoo the nurse out of the room while she was objecting that was not standard procedure.

promise you’ll stop getting a circumcision? What? like it’s an ongoing decision like smoking cigarettes?

Nobody expects the spanish cirmumcision.

Nobody expects the Spanish circumnavigation!
RGB3x3@lemmy.world 7 months ago
When is the body positivity movement going to acknowledge that men who have been circumcised are not broken? So much toxicity around this online. Every time this comes up, it’s just a bunch of people shaming guys who have been circumcised.
Draedron@lemmy.dbzer0.com 7 months ago
We arent shaming the guys but the parents. Being circuncised is not a condition that just happened. Its shitty parents mutilating their babies because they think it looks better.
AtariDump@lemmy.world 7 months ago
I strongly disagree. I did a not have shitty parents; they are wonderful.
It was misinformation at the time. I HIGHLY DOUBT they were standing there looking at me thinking “his dick will look better without that extra piece of skin when he’s older”.
Everyone has done something wrong due to misinformation with long lasting repercussions.
ILikeBoobies@lemmy.ca 7 months ago
It is, people can get circumcised for health issues
KillingTimeItself@lemmy.dbzer0.com 7 months ago
when did we start shaming circumcised men? I’m sorry?
Potatos_are_not_friends@lemmy.world 7 months ago
You don’t go to a bar and someone points at your dick disfigurement (or what we call a dickfigurirement) with, “Hey look at snippy dick”?
kandoh@reddthat.com 7 months ago
There’s constant slurs and jokes being thrown our waynat our expense. It’s a daily aspect of our lives.
“Cut that out”
“are you getting snippy with me?”
“I’m afraid we’ll have to cut our time short”
You probably don’t notice it unless you’ve been circumcised yourself.
Discoverthemind@lemmy.world 7 months ago
Definitely don’t want to shame you. I myself was circumcised but I believe it is a complex issue, but down to brass tacks it is actually male genital mutilation.
RubberElectrons@lemmy.world 7 months ago
I don’t hate my doctor or my parents for doing what they thought was a good idea at the time.
I’m fine and I love both my parents just the same. Hopefully you can find peace as well.
KillingTimeItself@lemmy.dbzer0.com 7 months ago
if you should be mad at anything it’s society. Realistically it’s not even really a medical design, it’s more like “hey we do this thing sometimes, do you want it done?” And then a yes or no. Perhaps 20-40 years ago that was the case though.
RubberElectrons@lemmy.world 7 months ago
Honestly, missing a bit of dickskin is a lot less troubling to me then how hard we all work and have no real protection from the hurdles life sometimes throws at us.
Who’s taking care of my elderly family, spread out across the states? My nephews have to choose between affording a home by both going to work, or actually raising their young kids. Where is our eldercare, our universal healthcare, our pre-k benefits?
I have my reasons to gripe about society, and crazy as mutilating a baby under the pretense of health is, I don’t think it’s as deadly or dangerous to us all long term, as these oligarchs and their sycophants robbing us of our dues, enabled by an unregulated economy.
The clock keeps ticking on the detonator.

Actually when you are circumcised you can feel that you are going to come, I mean I know for sure because I am. But it’s still a lot of fun xD
STRIKINGdebate2@lemmy.world 7 months ago
I am pretty sure you can feel when you are about to cum regardless of circumcision status. That’s just how dicks Work. Ya know
Wizard_Pope@lemmy.world 7 months ago
Same reason you can feel when you need to pee. It’s not the dick itself that actually controls the fluids.

Or more precisely, how prostates work.
SignorCadere@feddit.it 7 months ago
really? thanks for telling me, if it wasn’t for you i would have never found out. thanks man, thanks for existing
shuzuko@midwest.social 7 months ago
Fun fact, you can feel it when you’re uncut too. At least, my spouse has never not been able to warn me over 14 years together, so, that doesn’t seem like a good reason to mutilate kids’ dicks.
SignorCadere@feddit.it 7 months ago
well sure it’s as you say. i’m just saying that. then as for me i was circumcised for medical reasons (i was pissing myself from all over) so i don’t really understand the point of your sentence honestly

Is this satire?
spicytuna62@lemmy.world 7 months ago
That, or cope.
SignorCadere@feddit.it 7 months ago
But why is it supposed to be satire sorry?
ignotum@lemmy.world 7 months ago
It’s actually the other way around, the orgasm-sensor is actually located in the foreskin
that’s where it gets the name, foresight-giving skin
SignorCadere@feddit.it 7 months ago
okay I said it because it was supposed in the meme but it’s all the same

Religious mutilation: Not even once.
Paddzr@lemmy.world 7 months ago
I had medical mutilation. I lost a lot of sensitivity down there. But it allows it to work and wife has been supportive in a country where it’s a rare thing.
Kusimulkku@lemm.ee 7 months ago
I don’t think anyone is arguing against it being done for medical reasons and especially on someone willing.
lars@lemmy.sdf.org 7 months ago
You weren’t a baby?
hungryphrog@lemmy.blahaj.zone 7 months ago
Yep. If an adult wants to do it, then it’s nobody else’s business. But parents shouldn’t be allowed to make a decision like that. An infant can’t be religious.
zea_64@lemmy.blahaj.zone 7 months ago
Neither of my parents are or were religious, yet I have a scar there (not hyperbole, actually hurts if touched too much). I don’t know if foreskin is useful for anything in GRS, but if it is I’m gonna be pissed I don’t have any.
KillingAndKindess@lemmy.blahaj.zone 7 months ago
Bad news girlfriend, it is useful. The more you have to work with, the better.
I too am pissed.
