      science leans toward circumcision helping. You do much more traumatic things to the baby when you squeeze it through a vaginal canal for very marginal gains down-the-road. It's not abuse or mutilation unless your head is so far gone into the clouds. LOLz

      Babies have evolved to withstand the trauma of birth, not that of having the sensory organ cut off their genitals, and that trauma is only the beginning of the harm it does. "Marginal gains"? His life on earth!pic.twitter.com/Tm0nxnaO65

      life is all about trade-offs for marginal gains. All about it. You drive your kids in a car, no? Far riskier than any circumcision. So, please, find some other fantasy land for your misplaced good intentions. This is like dealing with the anti-vaxxers. embarrassing people

      "You drive your kids in a car, no? Far riskier than any circumcision." You "love good stats" but that is an absolutely rotten stat when you compare the death and complication rate of the 1-off 15-minute MGC with that of the many hours every child spends safely in a car.

      No... it's illuminating the point of trade-offs. F'n idiot. Yes, penile cancer rate is way higher than rate of botched circumcisions in modern hospitals. Reduced STI transmission means far less for others. There are nearly no downsides to a circumcision. You're bad at math. Stop

      If there are no downsides to circumcision, why not wait to do them and let boys decide when they're adults whether to get them? It should be an easy pitch to make, right?

          I dunno, man. My brother got circumcised as an adult. It made a vasectomy look like a haircut.

          You see, there ARE many downsides to male genital cutting at any age. Why did he have it done? It's rarely necessary. US doctors are ignorant of the alternatives.

          And men hardly ever choose or need to get it done, which ought to tell you all you need to know about cutting babies.
