Religious mutilation: Not even once.

[–] Paddzr@lemmy.world 40 points 6 months ago (5 children)

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 14 points 6 months ago (1 children)

I don't think anyone is arguing against it being done for medical reasons and especially on someone willing.

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 19 points 6 months ago (1 children)

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.

Bad news girlfriend, it is useful. The more you have to work with, the better.

I too am pissed.

[–] zea_64@lemmy.blahaj.zone 12 points 6 months ago (1 children)

I already have less to work with than average 😭

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.

Bless your mother

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

[–] coffee_with_cream@sh.itjust.works 14 points 6 months ago (2 children)

Please just explain it; I'm dumb

[–] saigot@lemmy.ca 12 points 6 months ago (1 children)

It is a trope that this how a partner responds to seeing self harm scars. But this isn't a self harm scar it's a circumcision scar.

You don't snip a bit after every celebration?

When the Chiefs won the Superbowl, I got a lil circumcision to celebrate.

Nobody expects the spanish cirmumcision.

[–] intensely_human@lemm.ee 6 points 6 months ago

Nobody expects the Spanish circumnavigation!

[–] RubberElectrons@lemmy.world 13 points 6 months ago (1 children)

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 10 points 6 months ago (1 children)

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 5 points 6 months ago (1 children)

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.
