Do we need 'statistics that prove blind men are not unhappy' to prove why we shouldn't deliberately gouge the eyes of babies out? Absurd.

When asked, circ men report either majority positive or mostly neutral. Few are dissatisfied.

Unless you are at 100% satisfied, you have a human rights problem. Also, the more men learn about what was taken from them, the more they get angry it was done without their consent. Education rate increases the dissatisfaction rate over time.

One common pro-slavery argument was, 'they're happy to be slaves!' She goes into an anti-slavery group & chants, "black folk are happy to be slaves!" Many women were happy their feet were bound, as it was regarded as lower status if you weren't - like circ in some communities.

As you rightly point out, most men also have no clue of the facts of circumcision. Most don't know they lost 80% of sexual sensation. Most have been told it's a "tiny" flap of "extra" skin - they're always surprised to learn it's ~15 sq inches or so.pic.twitter.com/YJHMpZYGqA

women in countries where perform FGM are the same, they don't know what is taken from them here you can see your argument is not even an argument

You’re wrong. It’s usually performed on young girls. Sometimes on infants, but almost always on girls. These girls have become familiar with their bodies by the time someone cuts them.

your problem is that if someone is aware of what we are doing to them or not? and if they are not aware and as long as they don't know what is taken from them it's ok what ever you do? or you think MGM and FGM are wrong but the one which is performed at youth is worst?

I’m saying an infant does not stimulate their body. By the age of 5 most of us are fairly aware of our sexual organs. Those girls then have their bodies mutilated or even later. Honestly if you’re comparing the two you’re a hipocrite who doesn’t care about body integrity.

As someone who's proud of assisting with the amputation of her sons' foreskins for non therapeutic reasons, I think you're well past convincing anyone you care about, or can have an honest discussion about, bodily integrity. #i2
