    What you're saying is just simple logic that some people can't grasp. Put the idea into people's heads that circumcision = immunity from STDs, and many young boys and foolish men will think they have a license to have unprotected sex.Spreading myths like this is dangerous indeed.

    I find myself feeling enraged, depressed, and finally exhausted by the sheer ignorance of my society. What was taken from me goes far beyond a healthy piece of sexual tissue (as if that isn't enough to cause protest). My choice to identify with MY body in what way seems best to me was taken along with much of my sexual confidence, and after all the confusion of emotions after years of therapy I am simply exhausted. You cannot cure the ignorance of others, because that is their choice. Ironic...

    "The idea that we Westerners are going to march into Africa -- which is so huge, so vast, so complicated -- and we're going to circumcise, perform an operation on millions and millions and millions of men, when we refuse to feed these people, get them useful jobs, and bring them fresh water, is so naive that it expresses to me the desperation of the pro-circumcision lobby." ~Dr. Dean Edell

    why in the world would the foreskin only "cause HIV" in Africa? sounds prejudice and racist to me.

    People often say "correlation doesn't mean causation". The US is number one in the frequency of infant male circumcision, and HIV infection rates, so, circumcision likely makes men more prone to HIV infection, even if they remain celibate for the time it takes the circumcision wound to heal.

    You don't have the right to get your children a permanent tattoo against their will, so you definitely should not have the right to permanently remove a part of the body, that doesn't belong to you.

    nope, equality is only an issue when its feminist arguments and when it doesnt benefit them specifically because feminists claim that all the equality of the world revolves around misogynists and hierarchical society. But when its on the other foot and being a women benefits the situation they don't fight for gender equality of the man, because it benefits them. For instance, child custody rights being in favor of the female. FEMINISTS, are sexist.

    A woman here is a crusading to surgically sexually desensitize all men.The husband of our pastor pushed her out of his house.She sued him for assault.She lost that case but drove the pastor out of her job.She came back to the church with unbelievable malicious slander against me.A lawyer says she can say anything as long as it does not damage me financially.This is out of the dark ages. Can you do help us? If you know anyone who can help, I have the names and sordid details to give them.

    Funny how it's more important what people "think of" than what they do, eh? Also, it's funny how you shame people who are actively trying to spread unbiased information about male genital mutilation while people like you are continuously undermining it's seriousness by saying that the almighty "FGM!!!!11" (funny how you call it 'mutilation' when its female, but not when its male) is worst. How about you start looking at the facts, rather than opinions, eh?
