      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.

      I care about the baby's rights. The infant who cannot speak for himself. And for the men I know, who have shared with me in the most intimate terms in long conversations the damage, the pain and the distress this has caused them.

      The population of men who resent their cut is about the population of men who opt for circumcision and wish it had been done in infancy.

      Untrue. Men cut as infants, by far, have the lowest satisfaction rates compared to men cut as adults and intact men https://www.researchgate.net/publication/319635437_Attitude_Toward_One's_Circumcision_Status_Is_More_Important_than_Actual_Circumcision_Status_for_Men's_Body_Image_and_Sexual_Functioning … And those who think they're satisfied only think so because they're ignorant https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/abs/10.1080/13691058.2017.1400104?journalCode=tchs20 … Almost no men ever want or need one.

      I’ve already addressed 2x that the bossio/pukal study admit that the population studied was likely biased in an anti-circ skew. Can’t be taken for general population, who are not ignorant.

      And as I've already pointed out to you multiple times, Bossio & Pukall say nothing of the kind. "Polarized attitudes" goes both ways, and the study undoubtedly included men who - like you - are desperate to defend the practice. #i2

      Ur right there were a few who were biased in the other direction - namely the wealthiest, most educated group. But the bigger population was skewed to anti-circ attitudes.

      There is no evidence that anyone is "biased" or "skewed." The evidence is that significant percentages of all cut men, and a clear majority of those cut as neonates, view it negatively, while only 5.5% of intact men view that status negatively. #i2

      The evidence was presented in bossio/pukall study. They admit the limitations. The survey was to determine attitudes about circ. Since the bulk of folks feel good/neutral, only the polarized ends of the spectrum spend time on a “lengthy” online survey.

      Again, you're making statements that find no support from the study, or anywhere other than your own imagination. Most men cut as neonates have a negative view of it.
