Circumcision is not comparable to female genital mutilation and men that say that are ignorant as hell

I was literally just thinking about this, and historically they have different backgrounds, where male circumcision was used for health benefits in different cultures across ancient history, in Egypt, Greece and Rome. It made a rise back in the Victorian era as a way to prevent infections bc people didn’t know how to clean under the foreskin. Where FGM provides no health benefits at all, causes more harm to the female body, and it is used bc certain cultures believe women do not deserve pleasure

You are all dumb af. Male circumcision desensitizes the tip of the penis with circumcised men being four times more likely to have erectal dysfunction later in life. I get the arguments of it, but cleaning is very easy and if someone wants it aesthetically they can go ahead and get it as an adult. There is no reason to do it unconsentually to babies. Both are bad and it doesn’t have to be a contest. But all the Gen Z morons want to bring the whole “I proudly stand with women” attitude

In a way he is right but female ‘circumcision’ as some call it has more drawbacks and is more painful. While the reasons may differ both are mutilations and everyone should be left as God made them.

FGM is done at an older age, with no anesthesia and no medical care. The girl is held down, literally cut in the most painful spot. No man even remembers circumcision stfu

They are both genital mutilation but one is way more painful, generally done on older children and without anesthesia, and is gone specifically to objectify and abuse the victim. The other is done on a baby for aesthetic or hygiene reasons. Both are bad and should be banned but you can’t ignore the fact that one is way more barbaric. (Plus there’s intersex ‘corrective’ surgeries that even less people care about, which hardly ever get brought into these discussions.)

I’d like to preface that I consider myself a very patient person. However! Occasionally, someone can make me SO EXTREMELY angry that I gotta come back after a breather. So excuse me while I take that breather :)

Aesthetic and hygiene are both bs answers and other than maybe religious practices both should be abolished but genuinely fgm is the biggest issue out of both idk why I was downvoted on my last comment

I agree that aesthetic and hygiene are BS reasons. I think that circumcising a child for hygiene is like chopping off their hands because boys can’t wash them. I was just saying that’s the reasons why people do it.

Circumcision was not common practice in Greece and Rome. And on top of that what is this whole argument here? Both of them are bad. Why does everything have to be contest. Some of these posts here are outrageously stupid.

I don’t know what planet you live in but the majority of men are neither those things. You just want to see them like this because you have a lot of anger. And I get it. It really sucks to want something and not get it unlike everyone else.

Did you graduate elementary school? I said most men are not like that. If a small minority of men commit 99% of the rapes that doesn’t mean that most men are rapists. Our math and statistics education has really failed you. Or maybe you were homeschooled by morons who knows.
