      Up next is @briandavidearp. He makes the point that the lesser form of Female Genital Mutilation (often described as a "nick") is also rightfully illegal, however male circumcision, which is more extreme & invasive, is not. https://www.reuters.com/article/us-sri-lanka-women-circumcision/female-circumcision-in-sri-lanka-is-just-a-nick-not-mutilation-supporters-idUSKBN1DR28U … #HealthcareAndSecularismpic.twitter.com/T8GbgEuNM2

          We are told by @DrJackyDavis that those opposing assisted dying are often influential leaders of various religious and disabled groups, however their views often don't match many of those they claim to represent. #HealthcareAndSecularism

          So, @DrJackyDavis talks about those that jumped from the Twin Towers on 9/11. She frames it as people consciously ending their lives because they realised there was no escape. I always assumed they were trapped and jumped instinctively when overwhelmed by flames/smoke. Thoughts?

          It appeared to me as a "last resort/no choice" type of situation to avoid burning to death rather than a realisation that the towers would soon be coming down.

          It's not criminal, unfortunately, in no country in the world is male genital mutilation illegal. No one should have the right to cut off healthy parts of a person's body without that person asking for them to be removed, period. The only one we allow is the foreskin.

          You really think only 4mm is cut off in a circumcision? I would be so lucky if that's all that was taken.

          Christ! (no pun intended). Male genital mutilation. I would outlaw ANY non-medically necessary mutilation of children - including ear piercing. This is a decision for an adult to make.
