I do agree with you; however, the ‘just because’ part should be emphasised here. For non medical body alternations such as this, there should be a period of time to actually decide if you truly want to undertake this, along with an basic assessment. I’m not advocating for bans, but regulation on how this should be approached in the first place.

and if possible at age of consent.
While I agree with the majority of the argument, I don’t agree with this point. Age of consent is mainly a political thing, disregarding the actualities involved with teenagers and sexual life.
Biologically, pubescence which is around 13 is where this decision should be undertaken, as this is the point where the individual is sexually mature.

Its actually hurtful to watch the strong opposition to cirumcision involving girls yet barely any opposition involving boys. It looks like another take on sexism and like one commenter said, it makes it more difficult for trans people.
Circumcision for both genders should only be a medical decision, not a thing you or your parents decide just because.

I agree, this is basically an attack at many individuals.
Atleast, the meme mentions “sex offenders” which is more accurate than pedophilia.

I can definitively agree on the explanation stated infering the second point. However, it is an aspect which needs further clarification, like op said: “someone else’s skin” is usualy interpreted as human directed (dictionary.cambridge.org/dictionary/…/someone). This essentially introduces double meaning within the argument.
In terms of vegetable tanning your best knowledge is correct, it costs more as it requires substantially more time thats why it is only used for higher end or artisan leather. Additionally, I have stated synthetic tanning which is comparable to vegetable, but not as bad as chromium.
& the original person’s comment about chromium-salts looks spot-on, & was ignored by your counter.
In regards to that, can you provide relevant information which details it?
- Comment on Most of plant based leather uses a lot of polyurethane 2 weeks ago:
While the conclusion of this argument is valid your premises don’t follow a logical sequence. Firstly, leather is defined as a material obtained from rawhide which is tanned (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leather) - this is real leather, there is no need for calls to ignorance here.
Secondly, what do mean by referring to “someone else’s”? Because the common usage for such statements usually mean human, not non-human animals. This essentially looks like an emotional appeal at this point.
Thirdly, you state that it is common for leather to be coated in plastic. While this is technically correct - as large portion of the market is composed of reusing scraps, it dismisses leather production from virgin rawhide and processes using vegetable or synthetic tanning which don’t need plastic for the resultant product.

It’s such a common occurrence on the internet
Let’s not project the blame on the internet. The problem is everywhere, the rampant misogyny is out of control within all dimensions. The system is designed to indoctrinate and churn out misoginy just like racism and ageism is.
I do appreciate that you are refering to “most” guys rather than being age specific; also the rampant rise in mysoginy isn’t their fault. It is helpful to look at the big picture, to realise that men and women of all ages are forcefully fed propaganda used to further divide us all.

think opposite of Epstein circle
In no way the Epstein circle is the opposite. Rape is not love, those people are rapists not pedophiles - or at least where until they realised they want to do harm.

borderline paedophilic
That’s not what paedophilic even means. Manipulative, maybe. But not close to paedophilic. Precisely, teleiophilia is the type of chronophila that is present there.

Exactly, this is basically finding excuses to justify these actions. A treatment treats a condition, yet what does this treat - an ego of an person apparently.

This isn’t just sexualising children, this is sexual abuse of people. Nobody should be sexualised without their consent. It is a disgrace that this ever hapened to her; however, this thing is still happening around the world regardless of age.
The industries thrive on non consentual manipulation of people. Adults, teens and even children are driven deep into the trap that is abuse.
- Comment on Beyond fucked up 2 months ago:
Agreed, that post is essentially incorrect at one of the facts that it tried to provide. It is the difference between a child and a teen.
- Comment on Australians banned social media. Now they are worried about teenagers going outside with e-bikes 2 months ago:
Teens especially, since that law was catered more towards children. These days, teens are being disregarded and grouped in with children, even if they are vastly different.

Why is it that they always talk about giving the working class more work? It is another conondrum where the borguoise are put once again as the victims - erasing all their wrongdoings because of their fault.
The extension they’re giving to the working life isn’t a novelty anymore. It should be quite clearcut that they’re manipulating people just to pay off their debt.
What really matters is what the people are going to do - as long as the misinformation campaigns and indoctrination to wage slavery continue, shit like this will continue as well. Its up to the people to decide when that tipping point will be reached - if it does.

This is literally the illustration of most things within the world. The corporations/governments rather muddy the waters than actually do what has to be done.
Praise is given for effectively doing a cheap act of “niceness” that is more harmful in the long run. It is a method of deceiving the public, and taking advantage of a minority to precisely execute their evil intentions.
In this case, disability is one thing, but age and other factors are also used as a leverage point.
