But it is that. If you ask most guys they won’t care, not because it’s normalized but because it doesn’t bother them.

That's not a stellar argument, considering the average heterosexual guys' opinions on social norms.

Edit: if you want to get some real IoSM (and some AUG content) check out the anticircumcision reddit episode of the FPLUS podcast.

sorry, legal circumcision means that your dick can only be mutilated against your will, and as a grown adult (no anesthesia)

We can either take the foreskins or we can teach men to wash their penises. One of these fights is winnable.

You can’t wash my penis, it’s never been washed, it won’t respond well to soap and water, it’s very well seasoned, like a cast iron pan, if anything you just put a moist towel on it and hit it with a lot of sand.

It's really cool how every time someone brings up that there's an established list of "pro-man" causes MRAs tote around to derail effective feminist action, and only to derail effective feminist action, some dummy has to wander in and throw a tantrum about how were the ones not respecting the seriousness of the issues. You'd think when I brought up people drawing false comparisons to FGYM FGM it would be the big clue on whey there's a giant "but my foreskin" whining campaign in the manosphere to begin with, but I guess some things just got to be spelled out.

MRAS COMPLAIN ABOUT CIRCUMCISION IN ORDER TO DISTRACT AND SHUTDOWN FEMINIST DISCOURSE ON BODILY AUTONOMY RELATED TO REPRODUCTIVE RIGHTS AND SEXUAL CONSENT, MUCH LIKE THEY BRING UP SUICIDE RATES AN DOMESTIC VIOLENCE AGAINST MEN ONLY TO HALT DISCUSSIONS ON VIOLENCE AGAINST WOMEN. THAT IS HOW CIRCUMCISION AS AN ISSUE IS LIKE SUICIDE AND DOMESTIC VIOLENCE.

Oh, and yeah bro, I'm against circumcision because it violates bodily autonomy and having a consistent ethical code means I don't exempt clear violations, even if they're relatively minor issues in the grand scheme of things. Not everything has to be the crime of the century to still be a bad thing enable by bad ideas.

What does FGYM mean? I'm familiar with FYGM but google isn't helping me with FGYM. Best answer it had was "Faith Gospel Youth Ministry" which I suspect is not what you're talking about.

Because they don't remember, because it happened when they were a week old. It's still a lovely thing to do to babies for no reason.

Edit: I'm circumcised and I don't care, I'm not one of those guys that cares that much. And no, it's nowhere NEAR as bad as FGM. But if I had a son I probably wouldn't have it done to him, seems like a lovely thing to put a baby through for no reason.

Yeah the Y is throwing me off too. I know what they mean by the acronym, but I've only ever heard it as FGM.

Totally meant FGM, female genital mutilation. Sorry for the confusion, everyone.
