I didn't get the link, Sly

Anyway....I, definitely, wasn't saying that people should avoid YOU.

Why do you obsess over these kinds of things?

Guys; you think you're tough? Have you ever experienced menstruation? No? Childbirth then???
It is said that when a woman goes through childbirth, the level of pain goes past the average human pain threshold.

Who says girls have it easier???? :|


Considering that men and women have completely different roles in the reproductive process, and are raised in different worlds with different frames of reference, I've always found the, "Who has it easier?" question to be nonsensical.

Additionally, as someone who has lived through social situations as both a man and a woman, I can assert that both have significant drawbacks.....


This. These topics just keep arising.

That's because men who post these, can't get girlfriends. They will keep arising.

Seriously?

Circumcision happens once, to most men before they are old enough to remember it occurring, it is done by contract between parents and practitioner and it didn't exactly scar you for life mentally though it may have physically.

FGM causes pain throughout life and complicates periods and sex every time.
Rape is a daily threat.
Periods are once a month and very unpleasant.
Childbirth...

circumcision prevents the spread of HIV and other STD's, while sexual function is maintained. FGM has no benefit and likely stops a woman from ever experiencing sexual pleasure.

And in my opinion, menstrual cycles are not so bad.


For the men reading this women experience menstrual cycles differently. Some don't find it so bad, others swell up like a whale for 2 weeks every month, sweat excessively, suffer hot flashes, suffer insomnia, suffer headaches, cramp all over and feel extremely depressed all because they are female. Aaaaand, we just have to keep quiet about it and work through it.
Some are lucky though and don't have many symptoms. I wish I was one of them.

washing "once in a while" doesn't negate that under the foreskin is a warm, moist place for germs to grow.

I'm sorry, but, to me, that sounds like having your lips cut off to help keep your teeth clean. In other words, noöne would take such a justification seriously if circumcision wasn't already an established practice. No more established than female genital mutilation, by the way.

Removing breasts decreases breast cancer too .

That's ridiculous, and a known propaganda to promote male circ.

Why whenever a guy talks about this, some women come to defend the practice and deny it's mutilation as FGM?

Why? They are both mutilations.
Yet you women always love trivialize this practice while it's being applied on masses of babies everyday.

And the benefits are stupid, we are born with this stuff, so it should stay there. There are so many recent medical researches about its uselessness and negative effect on sexual sensation.

I don't believe one should be forced to be circumcised.

I'm circumcised--and I feel pretty good when I'm stimulated.

I, personally, don't have strong feelings either way--there are virtues to be circumcised. There are virtues to not circumcised.

The only difference is that FGM is taken seriously as a violations - while whenever any man talks about male circ, which is being practiced waaay more, you find women mocking him and repeat those benefits they hear about.

Contract my ass.

Men also have daily threats:
Most dangerous jobs are held by men.
Men are sent to wars.
Men's suicide rates is 3-4 times more than women- except in China (because in Chinese culture women are held responsible for the happiness and stability of family; while it's the opposite in the rest of world).
Men victims of sexual assault or domestic violence are mocked and taken less seriously.
80% of homeless are men and they stay homeless longer.
Boys are being discriminated against in school, google it for researches and studies on this.
Men basically don't have the option of being a stay at home parent; and the very few who do that are disrespected.

I'm uncut. Given that a lot of men worry about penis size, why would you advocate reducing what you do have by cutting the end off? It desensitises the glans over time. Yeah you'll stillenjoy having a poke, but youd get more sensation if you were uncut.
I have a regular sex life, hygiene is not an issue, just wash it! No infections or std. Wasn't circumcision in the US a big con started by Kellogg to stop teenagers w*king, and since then it's done "because it's tradition"?
I just don't think it's fair to do it to little kids who don't have a choice in the matter
