    As someone who grew up in a Jewish culture, with a bris being common practice for infant boys, I was intrigued to watch a documentary about circumcision. I’ve heard varying arguments for and against and I thought, why not see a real in depth look? #AmericanCircumcision

        1)It being a documentary, I was hoping for an unbiased look at the practice. From the opening shots following a confused baby(def a couple mos old) being wheeled down an ominous hospital hallway & then being strapped down, I knew that wasn’t going to happen #AmericanCircumcision

        2) Reading this interview with the director, it was disheartening to see the amount of false equivalencies he draws, the false data he uses to prove his obvious point, the arguments he ignored for this doc:https://www.fatherly.com/health-science/anti-circumcision-documentary-american-circumcision/ …

        4) BTW if you are circumcised, you have been traumatized and are predisposed to violence bc of this trauma and if you don’t think you are, you’re just not educated enough to understand your trauma #AmericanCircumcision

        “Circumcision became the major symbol of difference for Christians, between Judaism and Christianity.” Really? More so than the whole Jesus thing? Huh. I’ve been misinformed #AmericanCircumcision

        It definitely failed debunking the HIV studies, imo. This portion of the doc really could’ve allowed both sides to be heard. Alas... #AmericanCircumcision

        [Regarding FGM vs circumcision] “And i propose that it is due to our socialization around gender, that we actually think male bodies are more expendable and harmable, and female bodies are more to be nurtured and protected.” ...are you fucking kidding? #AmericanCircumcision

        The singular arguments regarding FGM from two different women who have underwent the procedure is harmful #AmericanCircumcision

        So the built in argument here is that if the circumcised person has not expressed his trauma it’s because afraid to admit that feeling, to himself and to others #AmericanCircumcision

        If you’re going to do a documentary about circumcision and are only going to show 2 people that aren’t against it providing facts and you’re only going to show circumcised men that are part of this Intactivist movement, you’re not doing a documentary about circumcision

        You’re doing an anti-circumcision documentary and you should make that clear that anyone who isn’t against circumcision in your doc are going to be portrayed as monsters or uneducated #AmericanCircumcision

        In the end, I learned nothing new. I’m disappointed that i learned nothing new and I’m disappointed that this felt like a propoganda film. In the end, nothing has made me pro or anti circumcision, just anti- #AmericanCircumcision

        I’m sorry, but those two drs were the only two this director could find that would be in this”documentary” and be on the “pro” side? Two people in a 120-min documentary. Alrighty #AmericanCircumcision

        The discussion regarding #AmericanCircumcision on Twitter is almost universally people whose entire accounts are dedicated to “Intactivism”, so that’s also disappointing 🤷🏻‍♀️
