IT can be done for medical reasons, you know that?
Calling people fucktards isn't helpful, it only makes you less convincing
What are you talking about? They're saying that bottom surgery has legitimate medical applications, which it does. I don't know whether to give you the benefit of the doubt and assume that you just replied without reading the comment, or give you the benefit of the doubt and assume you're smart enough to read and are actually calling people who get bottom surgery pedophiles.
Either way, this whole comment section is really making me second guess my commitment to quit reddit, if this is the caliber of discussion we have here.
They aren't arguing for baby circumcision, no idea why you thought they were.
Lemme help you out here buddy
@Eleazar@sh.itjust.works made the incredibly transphobic and apparently popular argument that all bottom surgery is genital mutilation.
@such_lettuce7970@kbin.social replied to them, saying that they dont consider the bottom surgery they recieved to be genital mutilation.
@Eleazar@sh.itjust.works made the incredibly offensive comment that yes, actually, such_lettuce7970 was mutilated.
@RobertOwnageJunior@lemmy.world replied saying that sometimes bottom surgery is medically necessary, implying that when it is medically necessary, it's wrong to consider it mutilation.
Then you called him a fucktard for some unfathomable reason.
@irmoz@reddthat.com said that you read their comment wrong, because you still assume they're talking about infant circumcision.
Did this help?
Thank you, yeesh. This is possibly the dumbest comment section I've ever seen on here. And yes, Eleazar is a transphobe, who quite ironically was arguing a week ago that homophobia, in Florida, amongst christians like themself, is rare and unpopular. Even if I bought that (I don't and it feels like a classic "as a gay man" moment), it always makes my head shake when people are seemingly offended at being accused of homophobia, then turn around and go "oh, but those transes though, yeah fuck them".
Eleazar is a transphobe. They said in no uncertain terms that they believe all bottom surgery, not just infant circumcision, is mutilation.
What a peach. Never thpught I'd meet an actual equal opportunity bigot. I guess being anti circumcision is a great cover for anti semitism.
Apparently even the hysterectomy I had that also treated medical problems is mutilation. Apparently my doctor mutilated me into a life of less pain.
Yep, it falls under genital surgery, which they think is all mutilation and should be illegal. And thanks, it's been wonderful, evicting that bastard has been amazing. Not needing narcotics has been wonderful.
Circumcision isn't mutilation. That's a fact. Infant circumcision to appease a sky fairy or to fit in with your neighbours? Yeah that's mutilation.
That's a fun way to describe a last resort when all else has failed... the "easy" way.
I'm getting a conspiracy theory vibe from you.
No mention of circumcision
Ctrl + f "circumcision"
Regardless, some nut's opinion hardly says much. He also made Corn Flakes to make people stop masturbating.
EDIT: Looks like he may have been behind the circumcision of children in the US, though that is disputed. It seems the nut mostly saw it as a way to stop masturbation.
So, still irrelevant to what I've said.
You could try making your point instead of just joking. You're just convincing me you're a troll.
EDIT: Ok no, I see now. Is this it?
So, he advocated for circumcision for uncleanliness and masturbation which is, of course, absurd. But it seems for phimosis it generally is the last resort once all else has failed.
Not what's happening in what we're discussing, and also not what mutilation means.
