      The Special Misogyny Reserved for Mothers https://nyti.ms/2RmHBjH  Male sexual dysfunction not taboo but women's is? & women's from GIVING BIRTH? What kind of society are we? As a physician and mother these are crucial topics I address in the office regularly. Nothing taboo. #sex

      Male sexual dysfunction is quite taboo, since we never talk about male genital mutilation (circumcision) and its effects on men and boys.

      Viagra is for symptoms. Do you endorse male genital mutilation as a practice? If not, please speak out against it. It is utterly barbaric and has no place in modern society, as we have already figured out about FGM. The effects are tremendously negative and damaging

      I am Jewish. My sons were circumcised. I have also seen boys who were NOT circumcised get infections requiring circumcision later (when it is painful). Circumcision lowers the rate of HIV and other STD transmission. It is not without benefits.

      If you engage the studies claiming such re: STD prevention, you will find the rates of reduction so negligible as render the practice moot. The requirement of washing the penis does not justify violently removing the most sensitive part without consent.

      I do not know of ANY deaths. Personally I think they look better, maiming is in the eye of the beholder. Having seen my share balanitis, phimosis and other issues my opinion is clearly different from yours. But I am done with taking the thread on WOMEN and MISOGYNY to this

          Why are you a doctor when you can’t abide by the Hippocratic oath? You are assaulting an individual that can’t give consent? Why can’t you wait until they are of an age where they can consent to a part of their body being cut off? Bodily autonomy is paramount! #i2

          Oh yes- let's dust off "mansplaining" when a male is right about something- especially not having his genitals involuntarily cut in an excruciating manner to suit your "preferences" - you scare me.

          Youmay need to admit that your perspective on it “looking nicer” is a personal thing that is based on your experience and religion - which is fine - but you probably need to think that there are different perspectives too. There are many who don’t think infant circumcision is ok

          Your responses are ever-shifting, none of them convincing. "It looks nicer" "Some abstract told me it was healthier" "My God said so" "Your anti-Semitic or misogynistic" "This isn't the place to discuss it" Why not just say maybe we shouldn't mutilate children? 1st do no harm Dr.

          So you cut your sons so their penises look better in your opinion? That is gross. Most of the men in the world are intact with very few complications. Women, on the other hand, have an entire isle at the store dedicated to feminine hygiene.

          A doctor saying "it looks better". Seriously? A body-shaming doctor? I mean, seriously? Do you also have an opinion on which cuts to female genitals "look better"? Some are partial to a nice, sliced clitoral hood, amirite?

          Beauty is also in the eye of the beholder. Maiming has a definition, which infant male genital cutting fulfils. Balanitis and phimosis, like the corresponding issues in women, can be treated without cutting the parts involved right off. http://circumstitions.com/phimosis.html

          Ryan Heydari bled to death 2015 from circumcision, one his parents didn't want but the doctors, like you, pressured them into it. There are no stats on deaths because no one records "circumcision" as the cause, just septicemia or hemorrhage.
