Speaking for American men. Men who wish they had not been cut must let go of their resentment and channel it to change for their sons. As a parent, you should be in control and if you feel intact is best, so be it.

And you are happy enough for a violation of human rights to continue as long as the number of men who complain is 'minimal'? You have forfeited the right to lecture men about consent and bodily autonomy.

I’m not lecturing men, I’m arguing in favor of parents. That comes in men and women form. You can’t seem to adequately keep up with the conversation. You’re losing me.

FGM is almost always partial or total removal of the clit, equivalent to the head of the male.

you really don't have a clue what you're talking about. you are living in a culture of PTSD, you need to deal with that before you hurt your own children. if you already did, deal with that instead of helping to inflict trauma on others.https://twitter.com/briandavidearp/status/1080961739276062720 …

The clitoris glans is almost always removed in FGM so point stands. It would be like taking the heads of men which would be torture.

simply not true. most forms of FGM practiced worldwide do not remove the glans clitoris; you are referring to the practice prevalent in NE Africa. adults need to leave the genitals of children alone. this is a most basic principle of morality.https://www.newsweek.com/fgm-female-genital-mutilation-circumcision-us-constitution-law-legal-1289860 …

Yes, yes they do. Type 1 and 2 are the most common, and the types are ranked according to the severity of the mutilation. Type 1 includes at least partial removal of the clitoris. It only gets worse from there excluding the very rare nicking that makes up little FGM practice.

As Prof. Earp puts it: "when it comes to their most private, intimate sexual anatomy, any cutting, no matter how minimal, should be their choice to make when they are old enough to understand what is at stake." That's true for girls, & it's true for boys. #i2 #HisBodyHisChoice
